Benefits of Using the Cloud
Cost Effective
• Zero capital expense required and pay-as-you-grow subscription pricing
Dynamic
• On-demand availability and scaling with a network affect and continuous improvements
Fast Value
• Rapid deployment in a matter of weeks and immediate improvement in processes
Leverages existing IT• Extends legacy
apps and systems, with no infrastructure build out and expert services

What that means
The cloud should . . .
Not mean rip and replace
Leverage what you’ve already got
Not require you to dip into your limited Capex budget
Allow you to share budget with the business side
Add more agility
Enable you to move to new technologies

Ways to Get Started . . .Initiative Cloud Platform Example
New Web ApplicationPlatform as a Service (PaaS) Microsoft Azure
Platform as a Service (PaaS) Engine Yard
New Business Process Business Process as a Service (BPaaS) IBM BlueWorks Live
ERP / CRM Upgrade or Migration Software as a Service (SaaS) NetSuite /
Salesforce.com
Cloud Data Backup SaaS or IaaS SymformAWS
Dev or Test Environment
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) VDC Skytap
Data center extension Infrastructure as a Service CloudSwitch
Extending a NAS to the Symform Cloud Storage Network
What is Symform?
World’s First De-centralized, Peer-to-Peer Cloud Storage Network - You exchange excess local storage for cheap cloud storage

Point Symform at the folders you want to backup
Each block is encrypted using 256-AES and a randomly-generated key
Each encrypted block is then shredded into 96 fragments (includes redundancy)
And all this is done BEHIND your firewall
How it WorksFiles in the folder are chopped into 64MB blocks
Symform then distributes the 96 fragments to 96 different geographic nodes on the Symform network
How it Works

Local backup to the QNAP NAS, which is then mirrored in the Symform cloud network
Extend NAS data to the Symform Cloud

Top Considerations for Moving to Cloud
• Internal IT team skill set evaluation• Cost of resources / training neededCore Competence
• Under 6 month deployment needed?• Immediate customer or partner requirementTime to Market
• Revenue at stake• Improve customer experienceBusiness Impact
• Can we maintain security policies and compliance?• What data is involved?Security
• Do we have Capex?• Shared with LOB?Budget
• Need to phase in implementation• Large pain but minimal footprintNeed to Start Small
