Managed vs. Unmanaged Cloud

Businesses have an expanded set of options for operating in the cloud with RapidScale. They can choose to manage their cloud infrastructure themselves or opt for a managed cloud and have a provider like us shoulder the burden of day-to-day management. These options allow clients to decide just how involved they want the provider to be.

Both solutions certainly have their advantages, and it truly depends on the business to determine which is the best fit. You have to determine how much your company needs to use the services and how much flexibility vs. support you will ultimately need from the provider. This requires a familiarity with your own needs and goals. Let’s look further at the differences between managed and unmanaged cloud services.
