Before cloud computing, companies had many difficulties regarding infrastructure and management, for example:
- High infrastructure costs
Companies needed to invest a lot of capital in servers, data centers, hardware and software and also in the maintenance of this equipment and occasionally replacement.
data centers: buildings or physical installation that houses IT infrastructure for development
- Lack of scalability
Before meeting growing demands was difficult and very expensive, adding servers or increasing storage capacity required weeks or months or significant investments
- Maintenance Complexity
Data center maintenance required specialized teams to manage hardware and software, these employees had to be physically present on site or unreliable remote access solutions and this took a lot of time.
- Limited Backup and Recovery Capacity
Local backups are subject to physical defects and local disasters, such as fires and heavy rains, which could cause irreparable data loss.
