Moving Infrastructure to the Cloud: A Step-By-Step Guide
Lunch Sponsor: Innovative Computing Systems, Inc.
Description:
The cloud has been proven to be as secure as hosting technology within the walls of a law firm, and provides many additional benefits that can't be achieved with enterprise-wide systems. Hosting infrastructure in the cloud means firms can scale up or down when more or less space is needed, allocate fewer precious budgetary dollars for hardware and steer away from the peak and valley spending that comes with investing in enterprise solutions. It has become a viable option for most small to midsized law firms, but how do you get there?
In this informative presentation, we will walk you through the steps we recently took to move one firm's entire infrastructure to the cloud. We'll give you the unvarnished facts about the pain points and how those issues were resolved, and discuss the benefits the firm has received since moving to the cloud.
