SAMPLE The elimination of large capex component boosts cloud adoption by a large extent
Cost Reduction (1/3) Impact
• Cloud Computing reduces IT costs dramatically as users can replace a large up-front capital expense with a low, pay-for-use operating expense
• Public clouds provide access to advanced applications and storage with minimum costs
• Private cloud adoption can reduce a company’s total IT cost by 25 - 30%
• Cloud computing has the ability to drastically reduce the operating expenses of a company within a span of 5 years
Xiwang Group in China pays only around USD 9,000 – USD 12,000 annually for cloud services avoiding millions of dollars it would have to spent towards the maintenance of a conventional system
