Why Cloud?
As more and more companies move to cloud, the amount of issues and pain points directly related to cloud computing architecture increase. PC Mag conducted a survey revealing that one in five C-level executives are extremely frustrated trying to cope with the multiple applications and cloud services within their organizations. More than half are seriously concerned about unmanaged cloud sprawl among their departments.
The rise of cloud services is shifting the way companies do business. IT managers and executives alike find their company’s cloud computing architecture growing beyond their control. Others are still struggling to sift through the hundreds (if not thousands) of providers to find the right partner. If these are your company’s challenges, then you’re in luck: you found TxMQ.

Which cloud?
There’s a long list of cloud providers. The majors, including AWS, Azure, Googles, IBM’s, Oracle’s… the second tier including colo options like RackSpace…where to start?
Different providers provide different options. Many are starting to provide overlapping and competing ways of providing similar services. Most public providers offer limited ‘bare metal’ options, and most don’t allow the old ‘bring your old equipment’ options.
Yet the next tier of providers, including regional players, still offer the option of bringing your hardware to their colo facility and have menus of options around services they can provide. From shared servers, to full high availability for mission-critical workloads. TxMQ partners with most major providers, and can assist you with your cloud planning, from conception to long term ongoing ‘hands-off’ management of all your critical systems.
How many clouds?
Is one provider enough, or is the redundancy offered by a multi-cloud strategy a better fit? Can one provider deliver the SLA your applications require across their global data center environments? How will you handle latency and failover between providers? We offer a number of solutions for those needing the high availability performance offered by leveraging multiple providers.
TxMQ Cloud Services
TxMQ partners with most major cloud providers. We work extensively with customers looking to maximize the value of cloud-based solutions. Most of the driver toward the cloud is the heavy commoditization of enterprise hardware and systems. As systems and storage solutions from the major vendors have continued to homogenize, costs have likewise stabilized. At the same time, the broad adoption of smartphones, and the requirements for ‘always on’ systems, have pushed companies compute needs to levels never before imagined.
In short, it is nearly impossible to keep up with the never-ending escalation of storage and compute needs most companies face. In addition, broader, and more pervasive compliance requirements, are forcing companies to store more data, for longer periods of time.
TxMQ Cloud solutions offer an alternative by allowing companies to leverage the investment others have made in data centers, and avoid the endless merry go round of ‘buy, refresh, and sunset’ hardware systems.
Lastly, by moving some of these costs from capital costs to operating expenses (from fixed investments amortized over time, to ongoing monthly charges), companies can often realize tax benefits moving the workload to cloud providers.
