FAQs

What is the difference between a cloud and a hybrid cloud?

A cloud model involves storing and accessing data over the internet without the need for in-house infrastructure, while a hybrid cloud combines both cloud and on-premise resources. This allows companies to keep sensitive data in a private cloud environment while using public cloud services for other operations. Hybrid cloud Sydney solutions offer companies enhanced flexibility and scalability, supporting their business goals by aligning technology solutions with specific needs.

What is the major benefit of using a public cloud?

Public cloud offers cost-effective data storage solutions, eliminating the need for physical infrastructure. It allows businesses to enjoy the benefits of managed service capabilities, with flexible and scalable options suited for small and medium businesses. This model can be particularly advantageous for companies moving to the cloud to support remote work or for agile operations requiring minimal setup costs.

How to pick the best cloud service provider?

Look for a provider that’s transparent about which platform they use – at Insight IT, that’s Microsoft Azure for infrastructure and Storegrid/Datto for backup and recovery. Ask how they handle migration downtime, what their disaster recovery time objective is, and whether cybersecurity is built into the cloud environment or sold separately. We include security as standard, not as an add-on, because a cloud environment without proper security controls is a liability, not an advantage.

Is cloud hosting the same as cloud computing?

No, cloud hosting and cloud computing differ in scope and function. Cloud hosting specifically refers to storing websites or applications on cloud-based servers, enabling seamless data access and reducing downtime. Cloud computing, on the other hand, encompasses broader solutions that include computing power, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), cloud phone solutions, and data storage. Both cloud hosting and cloud computing are vital components of managed cloud services in Sydney and across Australia, helping businesses access secure cloud environments while focusing on growth and innovation.
