Cloud computing can slash IT expenses by half, DataOne executive says

20.05.2013

"All the CEO will focus on is the performance, security and Service Level Agreement (SLA) of cloud service providers. Once the company's IT system is in the hands of the cloud service provider, the CEO can refocus on his core business and investment," he says.

Rocke also points out that cloud computing offers companies something that a traditional IT system cannot give, which is the flexibility of trying new ideas. One example is by experimenting with different programs and applications, and testing which one suits the needs of the company.

"If you're not able to experiment with new ideas, you don't know which one is going to work. With a traditional IT system, introducing a new idea entails you to go through a heavy process, which stifles innovation and creativity. This will hurt the company down the line."

"This is why the cloud is a very ideal platform for innovation because it has a low-risk procurement process where CEOs get to define what they want to buy for how long. And if ever there was a mistake in the sizing, they can be stopped or changed. At DataOne, we offer customizable cloud services that can be changed based on the client's needs," he says.
