Survey: Cloud computing has not really come into the SME

Recently, the http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/32268.html "> Survey of the IT and business executives in the 210 intermediary markets shows that cloud computing is not yet ripe for the middle market, is still at the primary stage of development.

According to the survey, more than half (54.2%) of respondents said their company did not deploy any cloud computing projects. Talking about cloud computing concerns, one-fifth (20.9%) of respondents ranked privacy and security issues first, while another 9.8% said it was cost.

Visible, although the cloud computing is being massively hype, however, speculation is only hype, cloud computing in the actual deployment still has a huge gap with the propaganda, especially for SMB (small and medium-sized). Now, for cloud computing, many IT professionals have a lot of misgivings, and they don't even dare to give it a go.

Recently, experts have listed several potential causes for cloud computing to scare IT professionals away. For the most part, the greatest fear of network experts is that they rely on offsite (off-site) operations to store data from institutions. They believe that this increases risk and reduces reliability.

Of course, in the face of a decision about the safety and reliability of an enterprise, as long as the decision brings potential benefits, it is human nature to consider potential problems.

However, experts believe that although cloud computing may cause some complications, these complications are dwarfed by the enormous undoubted benefits that cloud computing can bring to businesses.

"The cost of investment required to build an enterprise IT department is huge." "These are fixed costs," the experts wrote. If you want to broaden your services further, you will need more. What would you do if you wanted to lower your usage rate? Do you want to take several servers offline, put them in the closet, and wait until you need them?

In the current downturn, SMEs seem to overlook the cost-efficient selling points of cloud computing. But as the economy recovers, things may change. Hope that cloud computing can break through the bottleneck, really into small and medium-sized enterprises.
