On-Demand Services

On-demand computing is a model becoming increasingly popular in the cloud computing world. On-demand computing is a model where computing resources are made available as they are needed. In other words, a provider makes its services available to the user as they become necessary.

The most obvious benefit of this model is its efficiency in terms of utilization of the available resources. On-demand services save both time and money for you as a user, and us as a Cloud Provider.

In the past, one common data resources problem was the difficulty of meeting the unpredictable computing demands that arose in most businesses. On-demand services, however, have completely resolved this problem.

You want to use on-demand services under the following circumstances;

1. If you cannot predict the data needs of your business and anticipate fluctuations in your computing.
2. If your business wants to remain agile and flexible.
3. If you want your business to scale resources easily to meet your needs.

These circumstances describe just about any business. If you don’t have the capacity and finances to build a huge in-house IT infrastructure, you probably need on-demand computing.
