Discussion on Server selection of small and medium-sized Enterprises in Cloud Computing era

Cloud: considerations for private cloud construction

It is an indisputable fact that the era of    cloud computing has come. However, in the process of cloud landing, it shows a situation of "public clouds outshine others, private clouds full of flowers in the city". In particular, this difference is more obvious at home and abroad. IT giants such as Amazon, Google and Microsoft often carry a large amount of business through existing platforms. They build powerful public clouds through technology and infrastructure resources to provide all kinds of cloud servers for the majority of users.

  , what is a private cloud? Private clouds are actually built for individual use by an enterprise, thus providing effective control over data, security, and quality of service. The company has the infrastructure and can control how applications are deployed on this infrastructure. Private clouds can be deployed in a firewall in an enterprise data center or in a secure hosting location.

   for many small and medium-sized enterprises with certain strength and technology to build private cloud, choosing private cloud as the entrance is indeed a good way to meet the cloud era. At present, there are also many enterprises that want to benefit from the private cloud without risk. But to achieve this goal, you need to self-measure and evaluate the following important considerations before deploying a private cloud:

   1, Unified Computing platform

The first step in the transition of    enterprises from existing information systems to private cloud architecture is to unify the computing platform. It is necessary to integrate the hardware product platform and bundle the existing storage, server, network and other hardware together to test the compatibility problems.

   2. Integrate existing IT resources

Whether    deploys private clouds with internal hardware and software or leases computing resources from external public clouds, enterprises need to consider how to deal with and dispose of existing IT facility investments. Therefore, the effective integration of existing IT resources is one of the keys to determine whether private cloud deployment is efficient.

   3. Elastic expansion

One of the most essential features of    cloud computing is to help enterprise users to use IT resources flexibly and efficiently. Therefore, for the deployment of cloud computing platforms, it is necessary to consider the real demand for elastic space and scalability. A realistic assessment of resilient requirements is an important consideration before implementing private cloud deployments that add or decrease IT resources on demand.
