Benefits of Cloud Computing

Software-as-a-Service, and its benefits
Enterprise companies subscribing to a cloud hosting platform do not need to own the physical hardware that hosts their enterprise software. Instead, they avoid capital expenditures by leasing space and software from a third-party platform provider.  Clients of Nubifer enjoy the benefits of SaaS (Software as a Service) and the many positive attributes of cloud architecture:

  • Increased enterprise application functionality
  • Scalable business software applications
  • Single Sign-On interfaces
  • Reduced internal IT burdens
Many of our cloud-computing offerings use a utility computing model, which is comparable to how traditional utility service consumption (i.e. electricity) is calculated, while others bill on a subscription basis, also known as on-demand (i.e. newspaper).  Sharing computing ability among multiple companies and users can greatly improve rates of utilization.

The benefit of this approach is that overall application usage rises dramatically, as clients do not have to account for peak load limits.  Additionally, "increased high-speed bandwidth" makes it possible to receive the same response times from centralized infrastructure at remote cloud computing platforms. 

Control Expenses
Increase your profitability potential through greater control over expenses

Subscribers to a Nubifer cloud computing platform can greatly reduce capital expenditures on services, hardware and software when they pay a cloud provider for only what they consume. Consumption is calculated on a utility (e.g. resources consumed, such as electricity) or subscription (e.g. time based, such as a newspaper) basis with little or no start-up costs. Other benefits of this time shared approach are lessened blockades to entry, shared infrastructure costs, low IT management overhead, and on-demand access to a broader array of enterprise applications. Subscribers can usually void the service contract at any time (significantly reducing return on investment risk and uncertainty), and the cloud service provided is generally covered by service level agreements.

  • Develop your own business software applications
  • Better understand and track IT and software expenses

Choose your business model
Structure and grow your enterprise on your terms

The overwhelming majority of cloud computing platforms consist of dependable services relayed via data centers and built in servers with varying tiers of virtualization capabilities. These services are available anywhere that allows access to the networking platform. Clouds often appear as single arenas of access for all subscribers' enterprise computing needs. All commercial cloud platform offerings are guaranteed to adhere to the customers' quality of service (QoS) requirements, and typically offer service level agreements.  Open standards are crucial to the expansion and acceptance of cloud computing, and open source software has layed the ground work for many cloud platform implementations.

Build equity in your own business
SaaS allows you to lay the foundation for a successful future
