Cloud – some basic definitions
Before we start, here are some basic definitions.
• Cloud-based applications: an application running on / with
computing resources (hardware and software) that are delivered as
a service over a network (typically the Internet) (see wikipedia).
There are quite a few versions of a cloud infrastructure: public
cloud, hybrid, private cloud, racks... For the sake of simplicity, we
will consider cloud in its most simple form, in which the application
is hosted on the datacenter's servers.

Cloud – some basic definitions
• On premise application: the application is hosted on your own
servers, under your complete responsibility.

5 reasons to choose the Cloud
version
www.nikecsolutions.com
1. Speed - You need a system installed as soon as possible
2. Mobility - Your users will access the application mainly
from outside of your office
3. Lack of resources - You do not think you have sufficient
technical ability in-house

4. Lack of infrastructure - You do not have the necessary
computer infrastructure (servers, bandwidth,...) and you
do not want to invest in this area
5. Short term fix - You do not wish to manage this setup in
the long term (security, physical time, software
redundancy, maintenance...)

5 reasons to choose the on
premise version
www.nikecsolutions.com
1. The marginal cost of adding a new application to your existing servers is low
2. You have the necessary resources (technical and human) to manage such a system especially regarding security and data recovery
3. You need to integrate with other management systems such as ERP, invoicing... which are already installed on your servers

4. You work with very sensitive data which is highly dependent on local legislation regarding its confidentiality
5. You will be able to modify the infrastructure in order to respond to user’s requirements, particularly in terms of mobility
