Where is my data stored? Do you use AWS or Microsoft Azure servers?
Our cloud infrastructure is not based in AWS or Azure. We partner with a large independent cloud provider who supports and embraces the Cloud 2.0 ideal. Through them we have access to some of the largest global data centers in the market. As much as we use various AWS services, like S3, we found that AWS, overall, does not meet the specific performance and location requirements of our customers.
CLOUD GENERATIONS 1-2-3
Prior to Cloud 1.0, business process applications required large upfront investments in infrastructure and largescale IT operations. Cloud 1.0 disrupted this with SaaS (Software as a Service), which offered à la carte standard business process applications with no upfront investment. Cloud 2.0 followed, disrupting the IT infrastructure for application development with offerings ranging from IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) to PaaS (Platform as a Service). Prior to Cloud 2.0, developers had to manage everything from hardware to databases and web servers. After using IaaS for big data, organizations started to realize the benefits of using servers in the public cloud for other applications too.
