Bruce Hoernecke, President and CEO of BBH Solutions, Inc. says that more businesses are realizing the energy saving and environmental benefits of cloud computing. Mr. Hoernecke says that recent concerns over the volatile energy market and the costs associated with delivering power and cooling to on-premise data centers, coupled with environmental consciousness are leading the way to adoption of cloud technologies.
Cloud computing allows businesses to leverage the secure and powerful resources of a service provider to host their voice, data, and video applications and data storage. These technologies are then delivered to the customers end users on demand, or as-a-service. Cloud subscribers can access email, office productivity suites, CRM, and video conferencing from anywhere with a secure internet connection. Cloud computing solutions offer security, high availability, continuity of business, and predictable monthly costs for technology applications.
Business owners are concerned about the cost of maintaining on-premise data centers, says Mr. Hoernecke. They recognize that when they reduce their data center footprint by moving to the cloud, the requirements for additional dedicated electric circuits, cooling, and battery backup decrease as well. It just makes good financial sense, and theres the added bonus of reducing their corporate carbon footprints.
Recent studies and press coverage on the cloud have helped get the message out. Weve seen a growing trend in awareness among our customers of the environmental benefits of cloud computing and hosting.
A 2010 study by Accenture and WSP Environment and Energy(1) found that a 100 person company with applications deployed in the cloud can reduce energy consumption and emissions by more than 90 percent. The study estimates that if all US companies with 100 to 10,000 employees were using on-premise Microsoft Exchange servers and made the change to cloud-hosted Exchange, the resulting reduction in carbon emissions would be equivalent to that of taking 100,000 cars permanently off the road.
BBH Solutions launched its Cloud Integration Services program earlier this year, which is designed to help businesses transition from premise-based IT infrastructure to the cloud. The program offers hosted business applications such as Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft Office, hosted Cisco Unified Communications Manager, and videoconferencing. Their staff will conduct a full technology needs assessment, write a project plan, and provide services for a seamless migration to The Cloud.
Cloud customers benefit from the economies of scale associated with their providers data center, says Mr. Hoernecke. Were capable of balancing server functionality and storage space precisely to the needs of the end users. Additionally, the power and cooling technologies are optimized for our Network Operations Center (NOC), which is dedicated solely for housing storage and server equipment.

CCC Van Wert Credit Union in Ohio and Concora Wabash Federal Credit Union in Indiana have selected the OASys core data processing system citing disaster recovery benefits as a key to their decisions. The product is offered by CUtopia; a division of Worldwide Interactive Services, LLC. Both credit unions previously used CuServ from Harland Financial Solutions.
The critical nature of disaster recovery has become an increasingly major focus of all sized credit unions in the past few years.

ProviDyn, a provider of IT support, strategy and services for small and medium-sized businesses, announced today that its longstanding client, Partnership Against Domestic Violence (PADV), has relocated its headquarters with minimal downtime, taking advantage of ProviDyns private cloud. When migrating to the cloud almost a year ago, PADV immediately realized the benefits of lower cost and increased efficiency but did not foresee the positive impact it would have on moving the organizations headquarters.
Small and medium-sized businesses are often forced to relocate when they outgrow office space or need to consolidate multiple offices into one location. For any growing organization, this can be a stressful time that presents logistical challenges and a decrease in productivity associated with moving and reconnecting servers, computers and other equipment. For PADV, ProviDyns private cloud eliminated the need for physical relocation of its infrastructure and allowed employees to remotely access data and continue working with ease throughout the move.
Relocating is a big decision and makes a significant impact on any small business, said Hamish Davidson, president and co-founder of ProviDyn. With a private cloud, organizations like PADV are able to handle this challenge without the added stress of moving equipment and preserving data.
Women and children across metro Atlanta rely on PADV 24/7 for emergency intervention, so it was imperative that we maintain access to critical data and continue operating while relocating our headquarters, said Meagan Fulmer, president and CEO of PADV. With ProviDyns private cloud, we avoided the hassle of moving equipment and worrying that our employees would be unable to work. This made a big impact on the success of our relocation.

ETech 7 recently announced the benefits of building a computer network in an internal conference. According to the officials, computers have become a need for every business and every department and it is always good to keep them connected so that transferring data internally is not an issue. More over one of the major benefits that can be enjoyed by a secure computer network is the reality that the chances of getting important data leaked out of the organization are minimal. Without effective system management programs, a company may not only be losing money to hackers and other online crooks but may also lose its potential revenue generators.
When your customers can come to your website and trust your company, they will most likely buy from you if every other factor is equal. Do your customers trust you with their information? Can they be sure that the next major cyber-attack they will hear about on the news will not impact them because they supplied you with bank accounts or credit card numbers? Can they trust that their information will be used responsibly, and not merely held up for easy theft by an employee in a coffee shop having a moment of inattention? These are a few of the questions raised by Emil Isanov, CEO of ETech 7 Inc., a managed IT services provider.
In the conference there was one major topic discussed which many online marketers skip as many do not understand its importance and the distance it can create. It is about designing a website that looks completely formal. Formal in the sense, where terms are just too rigid that cannot be understood by a common man. People may come to the site looking forward to do business with the organization and just because the terms used are too fancy, the visitor may leave the website and go for another service provider of the same niche. It is very important that a service must be explained in layman’s language as people are able to connect themselves if they are able to decode the message conveyed. The most enjoyed benefit of keeping an internal computer network is that all the IT assets of the organization can be controlled from a central location and is easier for remote monitoring and maintenance.
About the Company
ETech 7 is a technology services company dedicated to providing superior quality service to a wide range of businesses. Leveraging state of the art software and world class service, ETech 7 strives to deliver affordable and reliable solutions for all technological needs.

Virtual Private Servers are the servers which are used for dividing any single physical server into subparts and mini-servers in order to provide a separate working vision between the individual users of the system. VPS is actually a contrast to the shared hosting system. VPS India is the server which is best helpful in such a country coz of the large population base and the continuous growth of the industries.
India is one of the worlds strongest IT markets. There exists no specific reason which may tell you why the hosting company which is running for your website should not be the same as for the country you reside in. In case, if you have your host situated locally in India, then it helps you to opt for quick customer services and thus saves your website.
Virtual dedicated server India is the best option available for those who look for having a shared network for hosting but are not capable of having dedicated hosting. There exist quite a good number of benefits that we get from installing vps servers India:-
User gets the control of the server and thus gets the liberty to choose the configuration of it.
VPS India allows installing the applications as required.
The space and bandwidth are not required to be worried of and any number of websites can be hosted.
Quite a few additional services are also offered giving the flexibility of removal and alterations.
It helps in increasing the continuity and regularity in between the organizations requirements and the services of the host.
VPS India comes with a very user friendly controlling panel which enables the users to take care and alter few tasks at their own ease. These tasks include the basics like the start and stop services, adding any user, request for a new IP address, taking backup etc.
These virtual servers give the guarantee for providing the best quality of service and the performance. So, this avoids the problems in cases when the other accounts stay busy.
VPS comes at an attractive price together with coming with such a power, flexibility and control, which makes it more usable and affordable.
Virtual dedicated server India provides very similar benefits as in for the dedicated servers and that too on very little cost. VPS acts as a stopover between the shared hosting and also the dedicated hosting for any company.

Proformative, the largest and fastest-growing online community and resource for senior level corporate finance, accounting, treasury and related professionals today seeks feedback from its constituency with its second annual Cloud Computing Survey tied with a cloud giveaway.
Cloud computing and cloud services have become so prevalent and integral to organizations of all sizes that Proformative is hosting another Cloud Computing Survey to gain even more insight into the topic.
Cloud Computing is very easily applied to the accounting and finance departments. Traditional on-premise software used to record, process and report on company business can all be taken to the cloud where it can go beyond the debits and credits to managing people, payroll, commerce, treasury, BI and a whole host of formerly difficult-to-acquire and integrate technologies.
One important consideration when taking financial or accounting based systems into the cloud is security and backup. Since this information is very sensitive and valuable to the organization, make sure that you are using well-vetted and established cloud providers, urges John Kogan, CEO of Proformative and a four-time CFO. Most online accounting software has backup and disaster recovery functionality built into the system, with degrees of redundancy and layers of security that are non-replicable by most companies trying to do it themselves.
Cloud services benefit not just finance, but operations, marketing, sales, and virtually all functions within the organization.
The top five benefits include:
1. Anytime, Anywhere Access From Multiple Devices – Perhaps the biggest advantage of using cloud software and services is the ability to access information from virtually any device, anywhere at any time. This means mobile, tablet, desktop, and any other device that has internet access from your companys HQ, your home office, or any coffee shop, airport and hotspot worldwide.
2. Creating a Global Workforce – By hosting services and software in the cloud, organizations gain access to a global workforce. This means access to services and talent is no longer restricted by geography.
3. More Flexible Work Environment – Cloud services and software allow you to make changes in personnel and technology much more quickly and efficiently to fit the needs of your business in real-time.
4. Cloud Computing Is Green – Many companies agree that adopting cloud services and software has helped to reduce their footprint and waste by allowing consolidated and efficient cloud providers to thrive.
5. Cost Savings – Cloud computing services allow organizations to only pay for resources as they use them, without needing to build redundant infrastructure or hiring IT staff to maintain under-utilized systems, creating significant cost savings.
Data collected from this survey will be released to Proformatives online peer network of more than 600,000 corporate finance and business professionals in its fast growing network specifically designed to help corporate finance professionals be successful in their jobs and careers.
Between December 4, 2012 through January 11, 2013 every participant who completes the survey will be entered in a drawing for a $ 450 Southwest Airlines gift card.
