Cloud
computing has caused a marketing fog, confusing business executives
seeking to understand the technology's potential applications and
business benefits. A Quick-Start Guide to Cloud Computing cuts through the industry hype and provides non-technical explanations about what it is and how it can improve your business.
With
case studies from large and small business, it shows how enabling a
remote workforce and sharing resources can reduce your organisation's
carbon footprint. It describes: the benefits of cloud computing; how to
choose the right supplier and technologies for your particular business;
key security issues and the perils and pitfalls to avoid.
This
Quick Start Guide puts business needs before technology, enabling you to
make confident decisions about IT strategy, make the right choices for
your business and reject 'solutions' that fix problems you don't have.
