Key Objections
|
|
Answers
|
|
|
The on-premises servers
are still in good shape, why should I invest in the cloud?
|
|
Most environments still suffer from underutilization or higher costs of
management.
Cloud
can offer substantial cost savings, while augmenting your IT infrastructures
with more control and agility.
|
|
|
Our company has
invested a lot of funding to our current infrastructure, what are your
implementation costs and are there different tiers?
|
|
Private cloud, while requiring a certain configuration, can utilize
existing investments.
If you already have the Microsoft software (Windows Server 2008,
System Center, or Microsoft Forefront) you can
leverage that investment in a private cloud deployment.
|
|
|
I already have
VMware running, how will upgrading work, or will I have to purchase new
equipment and software?
|
|
Microsoft's solution allows you to make use of existing virtualization
investments as you move towards private cloud.
System Center allows you to
leverage existing investments and offers a lower price point for upgrading or
increasing your virtualization footprint.
|
|
|
Cloud computing is
still relatively new, how will my current arrangement be affected in the
future?
|
|
Private cloud is built upon trusted enterprise software that many
customers already have installed.
Private
cloud allows cloud based benefits under your control using familiar software.
|
|
|
Why private cloud
when public is cheaper?
|
|
Private cloud offers a level of control that many companies find
attractive, key compliance objectives may disallow public cloud as an option.
All the benefits of public cloud, can utilize existing hardware
investment, or work with new hardware.
|
|
|
Data in the cloud is
vulnerable to hacker attacks and other security issues.
|
|
With private cloud, your data is protected by the same level of
security that you utilize in your data centers.
Private cloud
includes Forefront as a foundational software piece; this adds
additional security to your environment.
|
|
|
Aren't
virtualization and private cloud computing the same thing?
|
|
The idea behind private cloud is an extension of virtualization, but
brings in many new capabilities and management.
Virtualization is limited in its ability to scale, or provides advanced
management capabilities.
