Custom Cloud Solutions
Jul 2021
Businesses of all sizes are opting for cloud computing.
Where data used to be stored, transmitted and accessed via traditional methods such as USB (remember those?!), hard drives, internal transmitting systems – we are now accessing via the cloud. It’s no longer a question of if you’re going to opt for cloud solutions, more how you are going to implement it to work for your business.
No two businesses are alike and so it makes sense that infrastructure and software solutions need to be tailored to each business’s varying needs. As cloud ecosystems have matured, many businesses found there’s no one-size-fits-all solution on the shelves.
Many businesses are looking to step ahead of the game by integrating custom cloud solutions that can create an impact on efficiencies, cost and future growth. Whether you are thinking about how to use the cloud to provide services to your customers (SaaS, PaaS, or IaaS as examples); or how to use the cloud to store high-density data or power big data analytics – it’s worth a conversation with an expert on how custom cloud solutions could benefit you.
Top 5 benefits of Custom Cloud Solutions
Resilience
Forbes predicts that hybrid and on-premise cloud solutions will be one of the five biggest cloud computing trends for 2021. Custom cloud solutions, which encompass secure hosting or colocation, diverse connectivity and disaster recovery are agile and scalable and mitigate the risk of downtime.
Reduced cost
Many pre-packaged cloud providers sell storage in terabyte units, meaning you could end up paying for storage you don’t need. Upgrading or cancelling a contract before term can also see heavy fees; as can retrieval and transfer fees. A bespoke cloud solution makes sure that what you are investing in, is tailored for you.

Flexibility
Businesses grow and shrink, new contracts are won and lost, data continues to grow and privacy laws continue to change; and you need a solution that can offer you the flexibility to support your business for long-term success. There is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all solution, and you will need to regularly monitor the changing needs of your business. Custom cloud solutions can be easier to maintain and upgrade, and ensure business continuity.
Agility
As digital transformation continues to move quickly, the key to future-proof resilience is agility. Winning a new contract that requires additional compliance, more storage or increased security can be easier to handle when you are using a custom cloud provider. They often offer higher levels of flexibility to existing agreements, supporting you to scale as your business model changes
