Cloud Services

Many businesses are now using cloud (previously known as hosted) services and are prepared to trust these 3rd-party providers with their business data. This approach provides the necessary flexibility for any business, but for many small and medium enterprises using cloud services is the only way to access advanced technology platforms, which require highly specialised skills and significant funds to deploy and maintain.

 

Large multi-site enterprises often deploy their own, “private cloud”. This scenario brings the benefits of a cloud combined with the security of in-house infrastructure. This model is particularly suited for the aged care, healthcare and hospitality industries, where qualified IT staff may not be available on a remote site.
