Entering Q2 of 2021 marks almost more than a year when this pandemic (covid-19) hit the world and changed the way we work and has created a havoc in our lives both personally and professionally.
The major aspect that hit the business world was the new normal that most called it (the way we work). The altering of the business as usual posed various questions on how the businesses are going to strive for betterment in the coming days and for some it was about survival.
Traditional ON-Prem Infrastructure Vs the Cloud
Organizations that had on-prem infrastructure were the ones that suffered the most as the new normal was “Remote” and making sure that they can provide secure access to mission critical data to their employees immediately was not that easy. Not just they were not remote ready to operate, there were severe security concerns as well.
Cloud as a Savior amidst the Covid-19 Pandemic
On the other hand organizations that had accepted digital transformation or had moved to cloud were the ones that reaped the benefits of the cloud by running business as usual. Resources were empowered with the remote desktops and they could easily work remotely form anywhere, anytime via any device. With no to minimal interruption they started working remotely as they would within the walls of the brick and mortar offices.
The question arises about how exactly was all this possible? And the answer is what most people know “HCI — Hyper converged infrastructure”.
HCI — hyper Converged Infrastructure is Hosted Virtual desktops Backbone
Most of us know about cloud hosted desktops and virtual desktops but not the technology that actually empowers it. Hyper converged Infrastructure is the main technology that is considered the backbone of these cloud desktops as it enables the very virtualization of the required resources.
By using HCI, cloud services providers and in this case dinCloud virtualizes the basic 3 core elements (storage, networking and compute) into a single platform.
