One of the biggest IT dilemmas for businesses is: is it worth building your own infrastructure?
The IaaS – Infrastructure as a Service model offers an alternative to this. Its essence is that physical servers, storage, and network elements do not operate at the company’s premises, but in a professional data center, within a service provider’s environment.
The company only uses the necessary resources – and only pays for what it uses. This provides more flexible operations and reduces the need for „large one-time investments”.
Traditional infrastructure becomes obsolete over time, requires maintenance, and can generate unexpected expenses. IaaS, on the other hand, provides a modern, continuously updated environment where the operation and development of the backend infrastructure is the responsibility of the service provider.
Important: Planning is an Expert Decision
Designing the infrastructure and planning the migration is not a „one-click” issue. Not all systems are suitable for immediate migration, and cost optimization also requires strategic planning. It is worth assessing application dependencies, security and compliance expectations, and which systems benefit the most from scalability.
