InstaCompute: Building tomorrow’s IT business models today
In a rapidly expanding market like India, the rise of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) is clearly no surprise. However, SMEs often face the challenge of fast-changing IT business processes and seasonal spikes, coupled with tight budget constraints. In such a scenario, can there be a single solution for such a business challenge? The answer lies in solutions like InstaCompute, which are based on Cloud computing model.
All businesses undergo a transition at various points. Whether you run a full-fledged enterprise, a medium-sized business venture or even a smaller, relatively newer business, updating business IT processes is a critical step in your enterprise life cycle. In fact, some businesses even have to undergo multiple transformation phases. Large enterprises have the capability and the resources to execute such transformations smoothly, but SMEs face a significant challenge in doing so, given their limited resources and capital.
Overcoming the challenges of transitional change
The major transition that SMEs need to address right away is from a local, traditional setup to a more global and more economic solution such as Cloud Computing. These solutions help Small and Medium Enterprises convert a typical Capex-driven business IT model into an Opex-driven model.
Advantages of IaaS for SMEs
By choosing a IT model that provides Infrastructure as a Service, SMEs can significantly reduce Capex and enable greater network control, scalable processing and storage capabilities and faster product delivery over the Internet. Few more advantages of IaaS for SMEs, apart from ones already listed, include:
- On-demand deployment for whenever a solution is needed
- Instant scalability to match business’ growth potential
- Pay-per-use pricing so that you spend for just as much as you use
Every bit of capital investment is crucial for an SME. Seasonal peaks are one of the greatest reasons for companies under-provisioning or over-provisioning. This can later result in a heavy loss and idle resources. With IaaS, your business can gain immediate computing resources, on-demand, when you need them.
