Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a growing way for businesses in all industries to more easily manage their IT environment, in the cloud. IaaS allows companies to, essentially, lease IT infrastructure from a service provider, rather than buying equipment and hosting it on-site

Infrastructure as a Service allows your business to select an operating system and load your applications onto the servers, but it’s the responsibility of the IaaS provider to keep the equipment secure, powered up and up to date. Infrastructure as a Service might include Co-location, servers, hardware, storage, desktop virtualization, and internet services.

There are many reasons to use Infrastructure as a Service, including:

  • Getting Started Is Simple
    Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) providers already have the infrastructure in place, allowing your business to more quickly get your business up and running in the cloud.
  • You Only Need an Internet Connection
    When you choose to deploy Infrastructure as a Service, all of your organization’s computing takes place in the cloud. This means that every member of your team has secure and encrypted access to your company files, anywhere there is an Internet connection. For remote and mobile employees, this is an essential feature of IaaS.
  • Incredibly Secure
    Because Infrastructure as a Service providers host computing systems for many businesses, security is essential. There are multiple levels of security and protection to ensure that your company’s data is not breached.
