Memory capacity is the 'big managed hosting selling point'
10/08/2009
Memory capacity is the big selling point for cloud computing solutions, it has been claimed.
According to DABCC, businesses implementing managed hosting solutions and other virtualisation systems have found that memory capacity is not a key bottleneck.
Cloud computing, negates it by removing the issue of machine density from the business concerned and putting it in the hands of managed hosting services providers, the website stated.
However, the news provider said: "For cloud computing, bandwidth to and from the cloud provider is a bottleneck."
Research by DABCC showed that the amount of network traffic that a business's online software will generate is a key factor in choosing what hosting solution is most suitable.
"There's always a bottleneck, and solving one shifts the system bottleneck to another location," the firm added.
Meanwhile, research by Star recently showed that security concerns were the major preventative factor stopping businesses from switch to cloud computing and other similar hosting solutions.
