With cloud, storage and compute will be charged separately, both usage-based and per-second. Resource Monitors for account administrators to close examine the cost billed at each account level, with details for both credit usage and storage usage.
Productivity
As cloud solution providers take care of the installation of software, maintenance, and many more IT related issues, organizations now can spend more time on what they want to achieve in the first place. Whether using data to visualize the growth, or projecting future demands with historical data, cloud solution is the key to stimulate the productivity and skip the time spent in upgrading software or debugging a connection problem.
