Infrastructure as a Service
Information technology utilizes networking, computing, and storage in order to organize, operate, and manage an enterprise’s infrastructure. This can be done either onsite within an organization’s facilities or streamlined for easier use through the use of Infrastructure as a Service.
What is Infrastructure as a Service?
Infrastructure as a Service, also known as IaaS, is a cloud-based service that handles and delivers the fundamental network, computing, and storage resources needed to operate an effective virtual infrastructure.
Put simply, this service operates and manages the hardware components of your business’ technology, while you, as the user, remain responsible for the software components such as business analytics, operating systems, and databases.
Benefits of IaaS technology include:
- Better data and network security
- Elimination of capital expense in terms of infrastructure
- Faster development of apps
- Quicker response to changes in demand
- Easy and fast set-up
Infrastructure as a Service helps businesses to perform technological actions with greater efficiency, thus allowing them to focus on the core aspects of their business rather than committing heaps of time towards IT development.
How We Implement Infrastructure as a Service
Infrastructure as a Service is implemented through a process of analyzing a business’ needs, selection of a service provider, and cloud-based automation of processes.
Intuity Solutions offers a variety of cloud computing solutions operated by an experienced team, as well as recommendations for cloud service vendors according to a company’s needs.
Most IaaS providers offer pay-as-you-go service that scales with growth, making it a flexible option for businesses. Additionally, many companies choose to use IaaS thanks to no startup costs and reduced IT and maintenance costs compared to running infrastructure in-house without the use of a third-party service.
The control and maintenance of the software is left in the hands of the business itself. This means your business can customize the virtual infrastructure through the use of IaaS to meet whatever needs are required to operate your software of choice.
Overall, IaaS allows for businesses to avoid the overhead costs of infrastructure, while still maintaining control over the management of platforms and applications.
Specifics of Infrastructure as a Service
Networking, computing, and storage are the specific tasks completed by IaaS. For those unfamiliar, here’s a quick breakdown of what each of these entails:
- Networking is the transportation and exchange of data between two or more computer systems.
- Computing is the use of computer technology to achieve a specific goal, such as computer engineering, cybersecurity, and mathematical equation solving.
- Storage is the process of saving and backing up data and information.
IaaS can be used to perform several business scenarios, making it a highly useful service for companies looking to simplify and streamline their business technology. Common uses of IaaS include:
- Website hosting that is more cost-effective than traditional web hosts
- Efficient storage, backup, and recovery of data
- Quick set-up of test and development environments
- High performance computing to suit complex calculations
- Operating the infrastructure of web apps, allowing for easy scaling according to demand for the app
- Providing huge amounts of processing power to handle mining data sets and big data analysis
All of these IaaS processes are done through the use of cloud computing, which is the online availability of computer system resources.
