Migrating to the cloud is an increasingly attractive option. Cloud implementations offer endless benefits, such as cost reduction, simpler implementation and maintenance, as well as more business agility.
Many companies are in the planning stages of cloud implementation. As they move forward with projects in the cloud, data center administrators are discovering that migrating to the cloud is not as simple as initially assumed.
The cloud reduces the amount of computer hardware a company needs for its data center, but many do not believe that the cloud requires a solid physical infrastructure to maximize profits. Many executives are discovering that they have not focused enough on the design of the physical infrastructure before moving on to the cloud. This may jeopardize cloud implementations before starting.
Private cloud: The cloud infrastructure is operated solely by an organization. It can be managed by the organization or a third party, and this can occur inside or outside the establishment.
Creating a private cloud presents many challenges, such as maintaining bandwidth availability, real-time visibility of processes and documentation of your data center. Panduit can offer you a customized or preconfigured solution according to your needs after a thorough evaluation.
Public cloud: The cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industrial group, and is owned by an organization that sells cloud services.
Whether you decide to implement a private, public or hybrid cloud strategy, Panduit will work with you to develop an optimized solution that addresses challenges such as:
- Bandwidth Requirements— High-speed data transport (HSDT) solutions allow migration to OM4 fiber and Cat6A or SFP + copper to increase the availability of Ethernet bandwidth from 10 G to 40 G to 100 G for admit current and future technologies
- Effective planning — evaluation and design services help adjust to new configurations. The designs anticipate growth and include routes that can be easily installed / configured to add capacity.
