At Linke we are aware that the current worldwide health and economic situation is shifting companies priorities, not only on their project management and workforce daily activity but also in terms of infrastructure, solutions and services' investment.

To overcome the challenges involved in these difficult times, companies are evaluating the implementation of cloud-based technologies or, in case of those that already benefitting from cloud services, are taking essential cost saving measures using all the power provided by cloud computing models. 

Saving on system and hardware investments (maintenance and management) is one of the priorities to ensure business continuity. From products to carry out optimum remote work to the reduce costs assessing services, the AWS public cloud solution is one of the best options. 

In this particular article we would like to share five key measures to help you reduce AWS cloud infrastructure costs during this situation. The below recommendations are a summary extracted from our experience with customers, lead by our AWS Reseller Manager at Linke, Agustina Percio Roque. 

When thinking about cloud deployments, Amazon Web Services is one of the main options for companies worldwide. With a huge variety of services, businesses today adapt their systems in order to achieve higher stability and performance while reducing costs related to infrastructure and management. One of them is Microsoft workloads and all data related to servers and applications. 

In fact, during 11 years, AWS has been the trusted cloud provider for businesses that need to manage their Microsoft workloads in secure and reliable virtual environments in terms of availability. This is why in the following blogpost we wanted to share and explain the many benefits of building, deploying and managing Windows workloads on AWS cloud. 

SAP infrastructural requirements change after some time due to varying needs. At the end of the month, you tend to require huge resources due to increased data loads, month-closing activities and reports that have to be submitted.

In some other cases, businesses experience downtimes at this period as their resources are insufficient to handle the seasonal activities.

Against this backdrop, we have designed this webinar to show you how to adapt your existing SAP servers according to your business demands and avoiding excessive or insufficient investments while optimizing your costs on AWS. Here you have much more information about Linke Elastic SAP and how you can harness all the flexibility of Amazon Web Services.
