If you are ready to renew your IT infrastructure, the question is not whether you should go to the cloud, but how. During the migration you will be faced with many challenges: what do you do with data that is absolutely prohibited from leaving your premises, or with business-critical apps that are not suitable for the cloud? Do you have enough knowledge to make the move a success? In this blog you can read more about how tailor-made solutions such as a hyperconverged infrastructure or Integrated Data Protection Appliance accelerate and facilitate the transition to the hybrid cloud.
The hybrid cloud is in fact a combination of one or more private and public clouds. The complexity of your IT environment is increasing, but the benefits outweigh this. The investments in ‘hybrid’ therefore break all records worldwide every year. The big advantage is that you can distribute workloads. You place them in the type of cloud that is most suitable for this. In addition, you have the typical advantages of the cloud: it is easy to scale up and down resources and only pay for what you use.
The hybrid cloud also fits into a strategy in which security and availability are important. If you have a backup available at a second location, you can always fall back on that. For example in the event of a calamity, such as a fire in a data center.
Despite all the benefits, the transition can cost you a lot of headaches. For example, not all data can just go to the cloud, due to your own or legal requirements (GDPR) for data protection. Or you might be using apps developed just for you and only running on legacy systems. Combined with the increased complexity, many organizations are putting off a decision, especially if their IT department is already under pressure. Going into business with a partner can offer a solution in such a situation.
Infradax is a party that can take a lot of work off your hands in the digital transformation process. We can provide you with turnkey solutions, such as hyperconverged infrastructure or an Integrated Data Protection Appliance (IDPA). ‘Hyperconverged’ is a software-defined environment that is scalable and super reliable. You no longer have to look under the hood.
IDPA is an appliance from Dell that is both software and hardware at the same time. This ensures that data is stored securely, at a lower cost. Data compression makes efficient use of capacity. By automating tasks for day-to-day management, monitoring and reporting, IT people save time that they can use for other tasks.
Infradax is the only company in the Netherlands to be certified by Dell to install the appliance. We work closely with Dell’s data protection team. This allows us to offer a proof of concept. You will then become acquainted with this solution and can view all features. Because we already have many implementations to our name, we are able to quickly deliver a working solution. We make sure that you make optimal use of all possibilities.
Before you take steps towards the hybrid cloud, we can advise you on what the right mix should look like for your organization. We also provide the following services:
With a hyperconverged infrastructure or IDPA you have a scalable, instant solution. Data storage is arranged in a secure manner and management is simplified. This saves costs and helps you to innovate again.
