Presentation Rationale
Purpose: The purpose of this speech is to persuade my audience that businesses can benefit from moving services and infrastructure to cloud based computing platforms. I want to portray that businesses will have less staff to maintain and much lower technology costs are incurred from technology purchases and replacement cycles, by not housing hardware on premises. This also benefits them by having lower application downtime due to resources spread redundantly across multiple geographic regions. When more resources are needed, more performance can be allocated in the cloud. Cloud providers also have experienced and trained technicians on a much larger scale, that can focus on things such as security and server resiliency. My main point is that by moving resources to the cloud a business can become more efficient and more agile with less …show more content…
This topic would also be beneficial to human resources staff responsible for hiring, and any IT staff that would be trained to maintain cloud resources. The topic would be of benefit to anyone that wished to learn more about cloud computing and its adoption in the business world.
Significance: This topic is quite important to my designated audience because it outlines strategies for corporate cost savings and provides strategies to make the business unit more mobile, while reducing risk of lost income from infrastructure downtime. It also outlines the benefits of decreased expenditures, due to no longer maintaining a large IT staff or purchasing expensive server infrastructure, which lead to increased capital overhead and annual maintenance costs. Newer cloud technologies are more cost effective and should significantly reduce overall technology costs.
