As I talk to people about BlueLock, I am often asked this question. “Is my business really big enough to consider a Cloud Computing solution?”
My answer: The deciding factor on whether or not you should move to a cloud computing environment is not really a question of size, but one of dependence on core technology to maintain the business. For example what happens to your business if your servers are down for 20 minutes? If the result of the outage is missed sales opportunities and dissatisfied customers, a cloud environment will make sense because of the resiliency, redundancy and disaster recovery protocols.
If your small business is growing rapidly, and you can not accurately anticipate future demand on your infrastructure, a Cloud Computing environment eliminates the constraints as you access as much or as little of he capacity as you need.
And finally, if you have limited IT staff, the switch to the Cloud allows you to hire talent to develop or sell your product instead of maintaining your infrastructure.
Making the move to the Cloud is not a question of how big you are, but how big you want to be!
