Cloud computing is growing at five times the rate of other IT initiatives and is changing the way businesses plan, operate and expand. By adopting cloud computing within their IT infrastructure, companies of all sizes can realize incredible improvements and efficiencies. For example, private cloud solutions can enable total cost of ownership (TCO) reductions up to 54%, as reported by Cisco’s 2013 Visual Networking report. The choice can be overwhelming for IT managers that are faced with decisions related to migrating all or part of their IT infrastructure to the cloud rather than continuing investments in on-premise solutions.
