Over the past few years, there has been (and continues to be) a big push by many organizations to keep IT costs in check and move more toward an operational expense model. Just look at the rising popularity of cloud as an example. However, cloud isn’t the only way these goals can be achieved.
What the HaaS is happening?
At its core, Hardware-as-a-Service (HaaS) allows anyone to lease or lease to own IT equipment for periods as short as three months, or as long as three years. What equipment? How about servers, RAM, HHDs, Raid cards, racks, PDUs, cable managers, or network switches, to name a few.
These leases are perfect for helping to make IT spend an operational expense, much like cloud is able to do. But whereas cloud utilizes virtualized servers and environments, HaaS offers physical servers in a colocation environment. HaaS options even include warranties on all hardware for as long as the lease is running.
Why HaaS?
The economic drivers are just one reason HaaS has quickly become a preferred IT solution. With its range of hardware options, hardware-as-a-service solutions are:
Scalable: Modular options allow for rapid growth
Affordable: No heavy capital investment, no credit checks
Flexible: Lease terms for a variety of lengths
