In fact, it\u2019s on pace to become a $12 billion market by 2020. The cloud and appliance based RaaS option is especially appealing to midsize organizations that lack the budgets and in-house expertise for IT disaster recovery.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cloud computing represents a new service developed from IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) model named RAAS service (Recovery as a Service or Disaster Recovery Services). A duplicate copy of data enterprise is maintained in cloud storage as security measure. Being hosted in these safe accommodations geographically separated from the original, one gets increased security. With cloud computing, disaster recovery becomes much more cost-effective with significantly faster recovery times.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FINANCIAL_AND_OPERATIONAL_BENEFITS_OF_CLOUD_COMPUTING\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/financial-and-operational-benefits-of-cloud-computing\/#sthash.LWiRLrc2.dpbs\"><strong>FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL BENEFITS OF CLOUD COMPUTING<\/strong><\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Virtually every business sector today is betting big on cloud computing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Given the benefits it promises and the way it changes how technology is delivered and consumed by the end user in an enterprise.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The undeniable advantages of cloud computing is to significantly reduce capital investment.<\/li>\n<li>Cloud computing proves to be affordable and the need for other resources &#8212; such as IT infrastructure data center space \u2013 is much reduced.
