Often, companies use pipelines. You have sales pipelines, communication pipelines, and obviously the water and power “pipe”-lines that keep on the company running.

So a business is a series of pipes, and even the most reliable old pipes and the best new pipes money can sprout leaks. These leaks may not cause your whole business to flood and be ruined, but eventually even the smallest leaks can cause huge amounts of damage. For example, if one employee is talking to your company’s competitor about your strategy for the next fiscal year, that could do allot of damage. In the same way, if your bills are being charged small additional superfluous charges, in the long run that could cost you millions!

Unfortunately, leaks in your company’s pipelines aren’t as easy to spot as physical leaks, because it’s easier for people to justify company leaks. Phrases such as “this is the way it’s always been” and “we don’t have the time to look into this” don’t often surface when your shoes are filling up with water.

So make sure your company takes the time to look at all your pipelines thoroughly, and if they don’t know what to look for, or find major leaks and don’t know how to fix them…Call a business plumber! There are many companies that say they will fix your leaks, but there are certain reliable companies that work to fix these leaks so they don’t become a problem in the long run. Those reliable companies will always have many customers that are willing to give referrals and speak with potential new customers about the services they received.

Todd, bandwidth needs, capability and scalability are all fine and dandy until we run into a situation where the system shuts down, whether due to a natural disaster or a deliberate attack on the Internet.

And this is not a matter of “if” but “when”.

To gloss over this fact, is shortsighted… and the IT based industry is abound with those who are taking the short term, save a buck approach.

David,

I understand your concern…but those things happen “shut downs, equipment failure, inability to afford the appropriate redundancy, attacks,viruses and more with IT inhouse also.

I hope you didn’t misconstrue my intent on the inevitable, and truly seen my point on the expected. Nor am I saying the cloud is there now with a “plug and play, no worries and walk away deliverable”…that you an afford.

But it will be.

So then you must know that if you can afford it, it is there.

Now it comes down to why would you put it in the cloud if you can do it cheaper yourself?

Which is one very big reason why the cloud is so attractive….COST. People, time, developed expertise, network redundancy, multiple delivery mechanisms and state of the art facilities and equipment CAN’T be afforded by most companies. And is not looked at close enough in the business planning and development phases of a business. People and companies forget all the “soft” and hard costs associated with being “state of the art”

Again…people are looking for perfect answers in a world that is not perfect. If its technology…it is not a matter of if it will break it when? And then…who is there when it does.

The cloud is coming. Know it, understand it, and use it where and when it makes the best sense for you.
