Changing the way you work
Creating a hassle-free technology environment for your business is now easier than
ever, with the achievements of cloud computing. Supplying your business with a private
“cloud” is fast becoming the most efficient way to maintain your business’ technology
needs, and is widely accepted as the future of organizational computing.
With a private cloud, data, software, applications and tools can all be served and
maintained externally, eliminating the noise and frustration that technology often
afflicts a business with. When your employees access your business’ cloud, all they
need is the internet. As a result, the physical size and conventional costs associated
with a desktop computer decrease dramatically; in the meantime, electricity bills
reach new lows, proving that cloud computing is a true “green” solution for businesses
looking to save money wherever they can. With iNamics hosting all of your business’
information technology needs, there will be no maintenance, no repairs, and no headaches
for you and your employees.
What sets iNamics apart from other cloud computing providers is its top of the line
customer service, its integrative solutions for literally every type and size of
business, and perhaps most importantly, its security.
While other IT firms may cut corners, iNamics values its client’s assets as much
as it values its own. With an infrastructure of environmental control units, DC
power plants, uninterruptible power supplies, an emergency stand-by diesel generator
and close-circuit TV monitoring 24/7, 365 days a year, as well as redundancy for
disaster recovery, iNamics takes special care in reassuring its clients that their
vital data and business tools are located in one of the most state-of-the-art, secure
data facilities in the world.
Welcome to cloud computing; welcome to the future.
Cloud computing and storage convert physical resources (like processors and storage)
into scalable and shareable resources over the Internet (computing and storage "as
a service"). Although not a new concept, virtualization makes this much more scalable
and efficient through the sharing of physical systems through server virtualization.
Cloud computing gives users access to massive computing and storage resources without
their having to know where those resources are or how they're configured. As you
might expect, Linux® plays a huge role. Discover cloud computing, and learn why
there's a penguin behind that silver lining. You can't read a technical Web site
these days without some mention of so-called cloud computing. Cloud computing is
really nothing more than the provisioning of computing resources (computers and
storage) as a service. Along with that comes the ability to dynamically scale the
service to additional computers and storage in a simple and transparent way. All
this is similar to the ideas behind utility computing, in which computing resources
were viewed as a metered service, as is the case for more traditional utilities
(such as electricity or water). What's different is not the goal behind these ideas
but the existing technologies that have come together to make them a reality. E
One of the most important ideas behind cloud computing is scalability, and the key
technology that makes that possible is virtualization. Virtualization allows better
use of a server by aggregating multiple operating systems and applications on a
single shared computer. Virtualization also permits online migration so that if
a server becomes overloaded, an instance of an operating system (and its applications)
can be migrated to a new, less cluttered server. From an external view, cloud computing
is simply the migration of computing and storage outside an enterprise and into
the cloud. The user defines the resource requirements (such as computing and wide
area network, or WAN, bandwidth needs), and the cloud provider virtually assembles
these components within its infrastructure, as shown in Figure 1.
