1. No Capital Investment
The On-Demand platform eliminates the need for expensive capital investments in infrastructure (which might not be fully utilized) and offers your company a secure, private hosting environment. Outsourcing to an On-Demand Managed Hosting solution can complement an existing network infrastructure without forcing you to make additional capital investments.
According to a recent AMR Research study, large-scale outsourcing can yield IT budget savings of more than 40%.
2. Scale As Needs Change
Because your company's computing requirements can vary drastically from month to month, maintaining sufficient resources to meet peak demands can be costly. Enable your business to meet fluctuating demands efficiently by moving to a utility model for Web hosting services, at a minimum consider outsourcing streaming video and high-volume Web promotions.
The On-Demand platform is designed to grow with your company offering massive scalability, on-demand delivery capacity, and the benefit of leading technologies without the risk of obsolescence.
3. Enterprise-Class Services
The Latisys On-Demand platform offers your company an enterprise-class computing environment which includes application clustering, remote replication and automatic failover capabilities. Latisys’s unique solution uses SAN attached storage for superior reliability, performance and scalability and Firewall protection is included on all enterprise level servers.
Latisys has partnered with leading technology providers HP, Cisco, EqualLogic, Fortinet and Veritas to deliver an innovative, flexible On-Demand Managed Hosting solution at a fraction of the cost of building a traditional network or maintaining legacy server technology.
4. Pay Per Usage
This new purchasing model allows companies to only pay for the resources they are using, thereby reducing capital expenses and operating costs. Customers can expand or contract resources, on the fly, as business demands change. For example, you may need to add additional servers and storage prior to the launch of a new Web promotion expected to increase Website traffic dramatically.
If your network infrastructure, along with the people needed to run it, could be paid for as needed, then corporations would save a substantial amount of money, currently spend annually, on system upgrades and maintenance for potentially underutilized equipment.
According to Saugatuck Technology, an independent market research firm, pay per usage services build on the traditional benefits of outsourcing – reduce capital expenses and operating costs, reduce risk and leverage service provider expertise and best practices.
