Infrastructure as a Service
Jump into the Amazon EC2 Sandbox and become a player with the AWS managed IaaS platform
Solidify your presence in the cloud with Afonza
Amazon cloud IaaS is the key
IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) is the AWS cloud service model where Amazon hosts and looks after your network and data storage. IaaS becomes your virtual IT platform for running your infrastructure.
Your IT infrastructure competes in a costly game of technological leapfrog. For example, since 2003, Microsoft has released eight versions of its Windows Server operating system. As the operating software and user interface become more sophisticated, your hardware and legacy software struggle to keep up.
IaaS is the strategic IT tool to stay competitive in the world of ecommerce. The cloud has truly leveled the playing field and Amazon Cloud IaaS is the key to cost controls, scalability, and strategic focus. That focus is a result of relying on off-site IT experts to keep your infrastructure up to date.
Reason 1: Reduce your hardware usage and wasted storage space.
Reason 2: Supercharge your server performance.
Reason 3: You need reliable backup just in case.
Reason 4: Your energy expenditures need a better return on investment.
Reason 5: Free up your IT staff for more productive deployment.
Also, you can take equipment capital expenditures out of your budget mix. The space you used for the expensive, energy-hogging equipment has been freed for more productive uses.
Leverage AWS EC2 with Afonza
What’s EC2?
Amazon cloud IaaS is the key
Read all about Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) on the AWS website. Essentially, Amazon EC2 has features that include virtual computing environments (instances) with preconfigured templates for your environment.
Among an array of attractive technical features, EC2 provides the security and virtual network isolation away from the AWS cloud. You have the option of connecting the isolated virtual network to your own as your virtual private cloud.
Why not go straight to EC2?
You can go straight to Amazon’s EC2 and spin up your own instance and call it a day. But what is the best way to configure and manage EC2? Are your applications scalable and fault tolerant? Are your security protocols in place? What about OS updates and patches? Is your database management the best it can be?
