Cloud Computing - Our Edge

Cloud computing is a significant step in the evolution of internet technology and its associated services. Adoption of cloud computing has reflected increases in high-speed connections and the reliability of networks, as well as the emergence of Web 2.0 functionality. The rich internet applications associated with Web 2.0 have encouraged businesses and individuals to reassess what they can achieve with technology and how it can support their goals and boost competitiveness.

We outsource our server computing requirements to some of the largest and most trusted names in IT services. This aspect of cloud computing - the availability of computing resource as a utility - allows us to draw upon almost limitless computing power instantly and with no capital outlay. Put more simply, we don't need to operate our own physical servers for the same reason we don't generate our own electricity to power them. Leaving infrastructure to the experts allows us to spend our time and energy on developing innovative software.

For Geo.me Solutions and our clients, this means that we are not exposed to a large upfront capital expenditure with each project. We can therefore move very quickly with limited financial risks and bureaucracy while being able to produce far stronger business cases and return on investment than would otherwise be possible.

The paradigm shift in internet technology to the cloud further supports our prime objective - that of being agile. Our agile agenda and cloud computing platform enable us to research and prototype client requirements at a fraction of the cost and risk usually associated with IT projects.

How our Cloud Infrastructure supports your needs

Cloud computing supports our agile agenda and keeps client costs low.

Ideas are welcomed

Cost of deployment is low so we can trial new concepts and prototype with you easily.

Scalability

We can deploy new services, or rapidly increase capacity at any time. We always have multiple servers preconfigured and ready to run for new services. If you scale rapidly our cloud infrastructure can move in step with your needs.

Sensible Costs

Operating costs increase linearly with your needs. There is no need to pay for multiple high specification servers that only use a fraction of their capacity. Conversely if you need dedicated services, costs are sensible and weighted to your actual use.

Backup and DR

Our virtualised infrastructure means not only do you get failover and backup built-in, but services can be run from servers in Europe and/or North America.
