Migration and support

Cloud Hosting Features & benefits

Backups

With cloud backup solutions, you can protect your data and applications to avoid costly business interruptions and meet compliance requirements. Securely extend your on-premises backup storage and data archiving solutions to the cloud—reduce cost and complexity and achieve efficiency and scalability.

Server availability / downtime

Cloud server hosting provides a durable uptime and high availability you can be assured your inputs will return the desired result reliably.

Disaster Recovery

Even a minor outage can put you at a competitive disadvantage. Be ready with a business continuity plan that includes disaster recovery for all your major IT system, without the expense of secondary infrastructure.

Security

With an increase in security breaches and cybercrimes, companies are rightfully concerned about the security of their data in the cloud. Stay protected with cloud security tools.

Implementation Procedure

STEP 1: ASSESS

During the assessment, we will work to:
Identify business drivers and challenges of your unique environment. We can work with any system, such as Sage.
Gather requirements from all stakeholders.
Present a migration plan and timeline.
Determine required configuration for Virtual Machines and DB server or instances.
Interaction with the client’s software support partner to plan software installation, configuration, and data migration.
Sign off by client on configuration, migration, and costs.

STEP 2: MIGRATE

Your on-premise environment is replicated in the cloud.
All data is migrated.
A process of testing and verification is conducted to ensure that all your data has been migrated to your satisfaction.

STEP 3: OPTIMISE

Optimise the performance of your cloud-based system (speed, latency, reliability)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Cloud Hosting?

Cloud hosting is a server and network infrastructure that uses software to divide a single physical server into multiple connected virtual servers. Often, these devices are referred to as virtual machines, or VMs. You manage your data through a “virtual machine” that accesses all the different servers across the “cloud”. The hosting server only exists in a virtual environment – hence the name “cloud”.

What are the various types of cloud hosting?

Public Cloud: In a public cloud, the cloud resources (like servers and storage) are owned and operated by a third-party cloud service provider and delivered over the Internet.

Private Cloud: In a private cloud, the services and infrastructure are always maintained on a private network and the hardware and software are dedicated solely to your organization. A private can be hosted in the on premise or with a third-party provider. In this way, a private cloud can make it easier for an organization to customize its resources to meet specific IT requirements.

Hybrid cloud: Hybrid clouds combines on-premises infrastructure, or private clouds, with public clouds so organizations can reap the advantages of both. In a hybrid cloud, data and applications can move between private and public clouds for greater flexibility and more deployment options. For instance, you can use the public cloud for high-volume, lower-security needs such as web-based email, and the private cloud (or other on-premises infrastructure) for sensitive, business-critical operations like financial reporting. In a hybrid cloud, applications or resources can run in the private cloud until there is a spike in demand (such as seasonal event like online shopping, month end consolidations, or tax filing), at which point the organization can move to the public cloud to tap into additional computing resources.

What tools do I need to move my software to the cloud?

Every company has its individual migration strategies and challenges. The first step is to identify an implementation partner, that would assist your company to accurately migrate your data from on-prem to cloud.

How much does it cost to migrate to the cloud?

Cloud migration have certain components that influence the total pricing of the migration. Some of these components are listed below:

Sizing: This is the storage space requirement that would be obtained on the cloud, the cloud sizing or storage space is determined by the number of software users, the activity level of each user, and the business processes implemented by the company on the software. For example, a company that has a high traffic on online shopping would have larger sizing requirements than a law firm.

Migration Fee: An affordable fee is usually charged by the implementation partner to assist clients migrate their Sage software to the cloud.
