Understanding your Cloud Requirements

Identifying the right approach

While most organisations are certain that the cloud has a vital role to play in the future of business, the various strategies – from a public cloud-first approach to hybrid or multi-cloud – can sometimes be unclear.

Understanding your unique requirements is crucial. Rather than opting for an out-of-the-box service, our job is to make sure you select the right solution.
We guarantee our experts will empower you with the right information, guide you towards the most appropriate solution, and ensure you benefit from a cutting-edge cloud environment.

Types of Cloud

Private cloud

Post-pandemic, many organisations transferred their digital environments to a hybrid or public cloud infrastructure; however, a vast number of businesses have yet to make the move. If you’re looking to modernise your current way of working whilst keeping costs low, our digital transformation experts are here to support your transition.

Hybrid Cloud

Hybrid cloud solutions offer mixed computing capabilities, with data storage requirements comprising on-prem infrastructure, private cloud solutions, and usually a public cloud service – such as Microsoft Azure or Amazon’s AWS. If you’re looking for guidance around the complexities of various technology integrations, our cloud experts can help you gain complete visibility over your infrastructure.

Public cloud

Public cloud services are an increasingly popular solution for ambitious companies. Offering limitless data potential with large cost savings compared with private cloud solutions, it’s easy to see why public cloud services are the appropriate option for many modern businesses. At Stripe OLT, we are a Microsoft Solutions Partner, which means we are a leading specialist when it comes to implementing Azure cloud solutions.

Azure Cloud Benefits

The benefits of Azure Cloud technology

Regardless of whether you opt for a private, hybrid, or completely public cloud-first environment, there are a vast array of benefits to be gained from using Microsoft Azure.

Increased flexibility

Organisations that operate using cloud as an infrastructure model will experience a significant increase in flexibility and agility, accommodating short- and long-term change with a virtual solution that will flex and grow with business needs.

Reduced expenditure

Paying flexible monthly fees for a serverless computing infrastructure, rather than investing in ageing hardware, ensures you are making the most of your assets and allows you to see a quick return on investment.

Enhanced resilience

By utilising a highly resilient cloud infrastructure, you can be confident that your business data is backed up and stored securely, while protected against breaches and natural disasters.

Improved security

At Stripe OLT, we can say with confidence that Microsoft security technologies are second to none. By utilising Azure, you’ll benefit from a vast array of security technologies built in to protect your data and your business.

Increased accessibility

By utilising cloud technology, your employees are empowered to work anywhere, from any device. Free from the constraints of time and place, your business will see an increase in employee efficiency and productivity.
We deliver secure cloud services and support with a particular focus on Microsoft 365, Azure, and Azure Sentinel. We aim to help your organisation achieve tangible benefits whilst improving the experience and effectiveness of your people at work.

Which Cloud Type is Best for You

When hybrid is best

Migrating your data, processes, and operations to the cloud has the power to completely transform the way you do business. In today’s cloud-first world, we can select certain elements of the cloud to suit specific needs. So, when would a hybrid cloud solution be suitable?
When you need to merge private and public cloud environments
When you need to retain some on-premise infrastructure
When you require scalable data resources
When you need to utilise multiple cloud providers
When you need to consolidate multiple technologies
When you need to modernise specific workplace processes and consolidate your Microsoft business tools and applications

When public is best

Offering a vast array of benefits, it’s easy to see why public cloud services are now a popular option for modern businesses. If you’re looking to completely transform your business, enable your workforce, and reduce operational costs, a public cloud environment could be the way forward.
When you want a completely modern workplace to future-proof your operations
When you need to operate at a higher level, with faster, more efficient workplace capabilities
When you want to gain deep workplace insights and utilise inbuilt AI facilities easily
When you need to implement a security-first, zero-trust digital environment
When you need to consolidate all your Microsoft business tools and applications
When you want to scale up your business and need a flexible data management solution

Cloud Services FAQs

What are cloud services and how do they benefit businesses?
Cloud services refer to the delivery of computing resources – such as servers, storage, databases, software applications, and other IT resources – over the internet. Instead of hosting and managing these resources on-premises, businesses can access and utilise them from cloud service providers’ infrastructure.
