How Webscale Makes it Easy for Digital Commerce Businesses to Consume the Cloud and Deliver Better Scalability, Uptime, Performance, and Security

Cloud computing is now becoming the standard in many parts of the world because of the benefits offered in terms of scalability, flexibility, and pay-as-you-go business model. However, moving to the cloud can be challenging due to the complexity involved, user experience and security considerations, as well as the shortage of cloud professionals in the industry. Companies like Webscale Networks are making it easy for businesses to switch to the cloud and grow with it.

Webscale Networks, Inc. is a US-headquartered company that offers cloud automation, cloud hosting, cloud migration, management, web application delivery, application security, and various other services.  The company was founded by James Smith in 2013, and in 2015, Sonal Puri joined as the CEO of the company to work with Smith. Today, the company is headquartered in Silicon Valley and has offices in Boulder and Bangalore, India.

If you are confused about whether you should make the switch to cloud computing or not, you should get in touch with Webscale Networks. Here are some of the ways Webscale makes it easy for digital commerce businesses to consume the cloud as a utility:

Scalability and flexibility

Webscale’s predictive auto-scaling technology ensures you always have a right-sized infrastructure, by increasing or decreasing the necessary capacity according to your website’s traffic demands. This prevents downtime (site crashes) and optimizes costs, providing your business a competitive edge.

Performance

If your website is slow, bounce rates will increase and conversions will drop, because today’s online shopper demands a smooth, fast browsing experience. Your potential customers might also be tempted to visit your competitors’ websites if yours is not delivering this level of experience. Webscale Networks provides intelligent caching and load balancing capabilities in the cloud, in addition to advanced content and page optimization techniques, to help you deliver web pages fast to your potential customers.

Security

Cyber-attacks can be devastating for a digital brand as they can result in a loss in brand reputation, sales, and customer loyalty. Webscale Networks gives your business a robust security posture in the cloud, using a programmable web app firewall, DDoS mitigation, bot management, intrusion detection, and other features, so you can defend your site from cyber threats and bot attacks.

Disaster recovery

Businesses of all sizes can face downtime, and small to mid-sized businesses are twice as vulnerable as larger companies. Webscale has a multi-cloud disaster recovery solution that maintains a backup of your storefront in an alternative cloud region, or in another cloud provider entirely. In the event of an outage, Webscale brings up these backup locations, reducing operational downtime and protecting revenues.

Automatic update of software

Since Webscale’s software is located off site and in the cloud, the updates are done automatically. This provides access to new features, enhancements, and security patches, without having to worry about upgrading, so you can focus on your business 100%.

Reduced expenditure

Infrastructure in the cloud can dramatically reduce your costs, but only if managed correctly. In fact, many companies can see their costs increase in the cloud because of poor management or a lack of internal skills. Webscale enables you to leverage the capabilities of the cloud with a simple, predictable monthly subscription.

Cloud Support

Webscale customers have 24×7 access to its multi-cloud-certified support team with experience in migrating and managing more than 1,000 web applications in the cloud.
