]]> Comment on NOAA: Agency adapts cloud technology by Bernd http://www.ip-192.com/2011/06/11/noaa-cloud-technology/comment-page-1/#comment-641 Bernd Wed, 01 Feb 2012 20:16:40 +0000 http://www.ip-192.com/?p=6212#comment-641 Cloud computing has certainly several advantages, among them the fact that users can access cloud based applications through a light weight desktop, simple web browser, or mobile app. For an organization such as NOAA with thousands of employees in the field, this is a true advantage. Furthermore, cloud computing can help to reduce the IT overhead and provide better performance. Cloud computing is usually offered as Platform as a service (PaaS), delivering a computing platform and/or solution stack. Needed applications can be added as 'on-demand software' or Software as a service (SaaS). Fees can add up quickly, and change at any time. However, moving 25,000 mailboxes to the cloud seems to be a smart decision, offering a 50 percent costs reduction, better accessibility, and new capabilities.
