Smallbiztechnology.com: Does Cloud Computing Mean You Can Dispense With Servers?

Jason Dominie, a senior product manger responsible for Microsoft Small Business Server makes the case that many small businesses, despite the lure of cloud computing, still need on-premise servers. (Video with text summary.)


“There has not been much talk about plain old servers (those more powerful than desktop computers that we use do write so much about) now that so much of the focus has been on storing files online and accessing applications in the cloud.

However, for many businesses having an on premise server is essential and still important (or preferred). Jason talks about Windows Small Business Server which is an optimized server solution targeted specifically to small and medium sized businesses with up to 75 users.”
