6 big points to consider when migrating clouds

With the gradual popularization of cloud computing knowledge, cloud computing has taken off the mysterious cloak, exposing itself to the public, gradually into people's work and life. This year, more and more companies are coming to assess whether cloud computing is really right for their businesses, and they need to use cloud computing to improve their competitiveness. But for most businesses, cloud services are not well understood. Many companies do not achieve the desired results after the deployment of cloud computing, but become more fragile. In this case, how can we ensure that the chosen business is to meet business requirements? The following six points are worthy of our consideration.

I. Customer service level for enterprises, in the purchase of cloud services to first consider the customer service level, in particular, cloud computing providers, different vendors to provide a variety of services, and the business between different vendors in the basic migration can not be very good implementation. The service level of cloud computing vendors also plays an important role in the later period.

Second, the business response time many customers may not pay attention to this aspect when choosing the service, they generally pay more attention to the function types of cloud services, often ignoring the corresponding time. People buy cloud services to facilitate themselves, access to portable devices anytime and anywhere, and response times have a direct impact on the services provided. Imagine how anxious it would be if you were in a hurry to see a file, but you couldn't access the server.

Third, availability availability is a very critical factor, for users, usability is related to the user's most immediate feelings of use. If a server with Twitter or Facebook fails, the user who is not able to access it is likely to give up the service. For example, you are a website advertising sales, so that you sell ads with others when your business can not open, customers will think?

Iv. Stability It failure is the cloud services can not be avoided, such as Amazon can not avoid the occurrence of downtime, but downtime on the business of the enterprise has a great impact, so try to choose those more stable cloud service providers. Downtime for a period of time, may be the company's reputation, the current customer has a lot of harm.

Safety and security issues have been the biggest obstacle to the migration of enterprises to the cloud, even more important than the points mentioned above. At present, cloud computing lacks the corresponding laws and regulations, the different cloud computing provider's difference is very big, moves the enterprise business to the cloud, means that this data will put on other people's equipment, how to guarantee the data security is the enterprise to consider carefully the matter.

Six, flexibility is a big feature of cloud computing, but also a lot of people value the cloud computing server is an important reason, but enterprises in considering the business should also consider the strength of service providers, flexibility to meet the future development needs of enterprises. And the cost of expansion is also a question to consider. Summary: Cloud computing is the future development trend, the future, there will be more business migration to the cloud, but in the process of migration, enterprises must carefully consider, after all, not all business is suitable for migrating to the cloud. Therefore, the above six points need the attention of enterprises, in order to avoid in the course of the relocation of irreversible losses.
