  • Moving to the Cloud: Reasons
    • Cost
      The cloud’s major savings potential lies in its elastic pricing model. And managed services.
      • Uptime
        Cloud operations can increase system uptime thanks to a global footprint that allows applications to run across a network of global data centers, each of which features multiple availability zones.
        • Scalability
          A key premise of cloud is the instant availability of compute and storage resources, allowing applications to scale out to remain performant under increased load.
          • Performance
            Hosting applications with a cloud provider can provide shorter paths and thus a better user experience compared to applications hosted on premises.
            • Velocity
              Accelerating software delivery velocity by means of fully managed build tool chains and automated deployment tools.
              • Security
                Cloud providers can provide a strong security posture thanks to a sophisticated operating model and numerous security components such as software-defined networks, identity-aware gateways, firewalls, WAFs.
                • Insight
                  Cloud providers offer services that are impractical or impossible at the scale of corporate data centers (e.g. large-scale machine learning systems or pre-trained models inherently live in the cloud).
                  • Transparency
                    Migrating to the cloud can dramatically increase transparency thanks to uniform automation and monitoring.
