To stream on your business

想用在生意上

And drive sales through the roof

讓業績直線上升

But to get there, your idea is the business apps

但要達到目標, 你的機會就在企業APP

And business apps have always been too expensive

而企業APP一向索價不斐

Especially in times like these

在這世代更是貴

Behind each one is a world of complexity

每個APP背後都複雜得很

They need a data center with office space,

要有數據中心, 辦公空間

power, cooling, bandwidth, networks, servers, and storage,

電力, 冷氣, 寬頻, 網路, 伺服器, 和儲存空間

A complicated software’s stack

難懂的軟體疊層架構

And a team of experts who stalk and figure around them

還有一群專家顧頭顧尾的

You need development, testing, staging, production, and failover environments

需要開發, 測試, 模擬, 生產, 和故障轉移環境

And when there’s a problem, good luck

有問題時, 你就自求多福吧

You contact tech support

聯絡技術支援部門

They don’t know, so they blame someone else

如果他們不知道, 就會說是別人的問題

Oh, and your versions come out

如果你想到解決辦法

They would upgrade

他們就會進行更新

But that might bring the whole system down

但是更新也可能會毀了整個系統

Now, this is for one app

這還只是其中一個APP

When you multiply these headaches across dozens, or hundreds of apps

當你將好幾十個、甚至數百個APP加總來看

It's easy to see why the biggest companies with the best IT departments aren’t getting the apps they need.

就很容易了解, 為什麼大公司即使有頂尖IT部門也沒辦法做出心目中的APP

Small businesses don’t have a chance

小公司更是門都沒有

How computing is a better way to run your business?

[雲端]運算又如何能讓你的生意更好呢?

Instead of running your apps yourself

與其自己管理一個APP

They run on a shared data center

你可以和人共享數據中心

You just "plug in," like utility

就"插插頭", 像插電一樣

This makes it fast to get started and it costs less

很容易入門且費用更少

It’s like Gmail, compared to Microsoft Exchange

就像Gmail, 和微軟Exchange不同

With Gmail, do you need servers and storage? No

有了Gmail, 還需要伺服器和儲存空間嗎? 不必

Do you need a technical team to keep it up and running? No

需要有技術人員來維持運作嗎? 不用

Do you have to do upgrades? No

你需要更新嗎? 不需要

When you use any app that runs on the cloud, you just log in, customize it, and start using it.

用任何雲端APP, 就只要登入、設定就能開始使用

That's the power of cloud computing.

這正是雲端運算厲害之處

This model is so much better. It's changing the way we think about software.

這方法好太多了, 正扭轉我們對軟體的概念

Not just for consumer apps, it's also been used for business apps.

這不只用在消費者APP, 也可用在企業APP上

We call this "Enteprise Cloud Computing"

我們稱之為"企業雲端運算"

Businesses are running all kinds of apps on the cloud these days.

許多企業近來都在用各式各樣的雲端APP

including custom-built apps

包含客製化APP

Why? Because you can be up and running in a few days

為何呢? 因為你可能只營運個幾天而已(就不用了)

which is unheard of with traditional business software

這不符傳統企業軟體的作法

They cost less because you don't need to pay for all the people, products, and facilities to run them.

企業雲湍APP費用少, 是因為你不需付人事費、產品費、設施費來讓軟體運作

And it turns out they're more scalable, more secure, and more reliable than the vast majority of apps out there.

結果, 這比起其他多數現有的APP, 更可廣泛運用且更安全可靠

Here's why. They're based on an architecture called multi-tenancy.

原因如下. 企業雲湍APP是以"多租戶技術"的架構為基礎,

With a multi-tenent app, there is a copy of the app for each business that's using it.

每個使用多租戶式APP的企業, 都會拿到此APP的副檔

It's one app that everyone shares, but it's flexbile enough for everyone to customize for their specific needs.

這是一個給所有人共用的APP, 但又保留彈性, 可按自己需要來設定

So it's like a giant office building where everyone shares the infrastructure and services, like security.

就像是巨型辦公大樓, 裡面所有人共享設施和服務, 像是保全

And each business can customize their own office space.

而每個企業還可以自己裝飾他們的辦公空間

This means apps are elastic. They can scale up to tens of thousands of users or down to only a few.

這意味著APP是很彈性的, 可以大到涵蓋數萬用戶或是少到只有幾人

Upgrades are taken care for you, so your apps get security and performance enhancements and new features automatically.

後續更新也是幫你顧好好, 你的APP會自動加強安全性和高效能並新增功能

Now, the way you pay for cloud apps is also different. Forget about buying service and software.

現在你付費的方式也不同了. 忘了以前要買服務和軟體的日子吧

Your apps are from the cloud. You don't buy anything at all

因為你的APP來自雲端, 你不需要買任何東西

It's all rolled up in a predictable monthly subscription. See only pay for what you use.

費用每月計費、價格清楚, 用多少付多少

Finally, cloud apps don't eat up your valuable IT resources so you CFO will love it.

最後, 雲端APP不會占用寶貴的IT資源, 你的財務長肯定會很喜歡的

And you can focus on projects that really impact the business like deploying more apps.

你還可以多注意真正會影響業績的計畫, 像是利用更多的APP

Cloud computing is a simple idea but it can have a huge impact on your bottom line.

雲端運算的概念很簡單卻能對你的財務底線有很大影像力
