Unified help you take advantage of the different cloud computing models leveraging the modern approach that fits to your business working models. When you implement any cloud solution specific to your business for instance; cloud for your business applications and systems that integrates to a cloud based database makes you work with the flexibility to use a browser based access from any part of the world. Cloud computing comes for you with several hosting options like pay as you use or a flat rate based on the estimated usage. Unified being a cloud service partner to many cloud providers assist you by designing a cloud-ready solution. Our important cloud computing models allow us to cater to all our client’s industry specific business functions including;

• SaaS (Software as a Service) – The Software as a Service (SaaS) model has already proved itself as a major source of business value in organizations of all sizes. With SaaS solutions for customer relationship management, ERP, office productivity, IT management and other key business areas, Unified is one of the sought after service provider’s in the marketplace
• IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) – Unified leverages the Infrastructure as a Service model in making all our client organizations IT infrastructure operations faster and in-time service to their customers and partners in terms of service operations. The specific infrastructure services like virtual data center, enterprise infrastructure operations, scalability and virtual cloud hosting and meeting the much needed service SLA’s is always abreast with the implementation of our cloud IaaS model.
• PaaS (Platform as a Service) – Unified believes that the cloud is leading to increasing opportunities for organizations to drastically improve their business models through the integration and leveraging of specialized services from their client and partners. With the passing of years we believe that this will lead to a world in which businesses become ‘cloud-centric businesses’ – that is businesses composed from services that exist within and outside the bounds of any one organization.

A number of key trends that are driving the cloud computing integrated platform allowing organizations to take advantage of all the cloud models including private, public and hybrid cloud models is the need for faster, secured, and data maintainability. Organizations adapting the cloud computing as the core integration to their applications, systems, networks, devices, data and servers take complete advantage in terms of governance, security, data integration, migration, including applications and social networks management.

Unified allows its clients to leverage the integration cloud application and infrastructure with disparate applications, system including databases with a business specific and cost effective solution without installing and setting up hardware, storage servers on premise.

Key benefits of Cloud Services

Unified helps organizations to take advantage of the cloud implementation with respect to their applications, systems and infrastructure. The key benefits of cloud computing increases efficiency, helps improve revenues and offers many more benefits. We help our customers to leverage cloud computing as a service paving the way to some of the important benefits of cloud computing implementation.

Flexibility – a flexibility of access that makes users to access the data and applications and networks from virtual environments around the world and perform their business operations using cloud advantage. It allows its users to access, connect and collaborate from anywhere and benefit from the cloud enabled advantages.

Disaster recovery – the cloud computing services comes with a disaster recovery policy that speaks about recovering of cloud enabled data if any theft or damage to customer’s valuable data.

Scalability – Your business can scale up or scale down your operation and storage needs quickly to suit your situation, allowing flexibility as your needs change. Rather than purchasing and installing expensive upgrades yourself, your cloud computer service provider can handle this for you. Using the cloud gives you sufficient time so you can get on with running your business.

Automatic software updates – Allows automatic software and patch updates without disturbance to customer’s applications.

Capital-expenditure Free – Does not require huge installation of hardware or servers preventing by spending more towards the capital expense to the business.

Speed & Automation – The ability to quickly deploy applications and satisfy business needs is a major consideration when making deployment decisions. The immediate availability of resources and capabilities in public cloud services makes this model desirable when fast deployment is required. Additionally, existing public cloud services can be leveraged to reduce the time to build new capabilities for the business.

Security – Security and privacy are major considerations when evaluating application and data deployment and the data being used. IT should understand compliance requirements and establish cloud deployment policies. Traditionally, less sensitive data such as publicly available information have been candidates for the public cloud while highly sensitive information may be better hosted on-premises or in a private cloud service. Security in public cloud services continues to mature and is improving, potentially enabling the hosting of highly sensitive information in such services to be considered.

Location – The location of application and data must be considered when deploying services to public and private cloud. Locality considers latency of services to end users (includes application and data integration) to ensure a great user experience. For example, cross border latency can have a significant impact on response times. Hosting services in country for the user community will improve the experience.
