The phrase \u201ccloud computing\u201d is used to describe a variety of situations where your business\u2019 data and programs are stored and accessed over the Internet, rather than being stored and managed in-your office on a computer or server\u2019s hard-drive.<\/p>\n<p>There are three basic types of Cloud computing: public, private and hybrid. Using the public Cloud, businesses get their own Cloud within an infrastructure they share with other businesses. This is an affordable, off-site service where the Cloud service provider is responsible for the security and maintenance of your system. The private Cloud is managed by your in-house IT team. It\u2019s a good solution for businesses that want exclusive access and control over their data, but it almost always costs more than the public Cloud. As the name implies, a hybrid Cloud service offers aspects of both private and public Clouds. Some of the Cloud is managed by your business\u2019 IT professionals, and the rest is off-site.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to clients of OptfinITy, we typically break the cloud up based on the needs of our clients:<\/p>\n<h3>Cloud based Email and Office Applications<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.optfinity.com\/it-services\/cloud-solutions\/hosted-microsoft-exchange\/\">Office 365<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.optfinity.com\/benefits\/\">G-Suite <\/a>(formerly Google Apps)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/optfinity.com\/it-services\/cloud-solutions\/data-archiving\/\">Email Archiving <\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/optfinity.com\/it-services\/cloud-solutions\/email-encryption\/\">Email Encryption <\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/optfinity.com\/it-services\/vendor-management\/spam-protection\/\">Spam Protection <\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Cloud based Infrastructure<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.optfinity.com\/it-services\/cloud-solutions\/hosted-servers\/\">Hosted Servers<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.optfinity.com\/it-services\/cloud-solutions\/virtual-desktops\/\">Virtual Desktops<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.optfinity.com\/it-services\/cloud-solutions\/colocation\/\">Colocation<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.optfinity.com\/it-services\/cloud-solutions\/virtual-private-servers\/\">Virtual Private Servers<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>File Syncing Solutions<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.optfinity.com\/it-services\/cloud-solutions\/optfinity-sync\/\">OptfinITy Sync<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Contact OptfinITy for your Cloud Solutions<\/h2>\n<p>For more information on cloud solutions and how OptfinITy can help you, please complete the form to the left or give us a call at 703-790-0400.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Does Cloud Computing Mean and How can it help you?
