Maintaining an onsite network can be costly. With the average life cycle of hardware and software running around five to six years, you’re constantly investing in new equipment at the end of each cycle; and this can be expensive.
By hosting your network on Amazon’s AWS, or Microsoft’s Azure, you eliminate the capital expenditures necessary to refresh the equipment every five to six years. Hosting your network on these platforms also provides you with more flexibility since you can add and remove resources as needed.
