Data center operators have traditionally focused on building and managing physical infrastructure to house critical IT systems and equipment. However, new technological advancements and shifting business needs are driving a transition towards a new service-based model - Data Center as a Service (DCaaS).
The Rise of the Shared Economy in IT
As businesses have moved critical IT systems and data to the cloud, they no longer need to own and manage their own on-premise data centers. This has fueled demand for shared, elastic and scalable IT resources on an as-needed basis. The shared service model of public cloud providers like AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud has become the norm for many organizations. IT consumers now expect the same consumption-based, flexible and utility-style access for their non-cloud infrastructure and data center needs.
DCaaS Meets this Growing Demand
Data Center as a Service addresses this need by delivering fully managed, private data center capacity on-demand. With DCaaS, customers can purchase data center resources like compute, storage and networking by the hour or month, without large upfront capital costs or long-term commitments. Providers manage all infrastructure maintenance, upgrades and operations so customers do not face these complexities. This usage-based model gives customers elastic scalability based on fluctuating business demands.
Cost Savings and Flexibility are Key Benefits
Offloading data center ownership, management and expansion to expert providers significantly reduces costs for customers. With pay-as-you-go pricing and no long-term contracts, DCaaS allows customers to match data center spending tightly to real-time usage. Customers can procure additional capacity for new initiatives very quickly without going through traditional procurement cycles and capacity planning. This agility gives busiensses a competitive advantage. For smaller organizations, DCaaS makes high availability data center solutions financially viable for the first time.
