Abstract

One of the aspects that causes the most concern in the SMBs are the costs of managing incurred during the first years of activity, while searching for its stability and subsequent growth. Cloud computing, has become a commonly used word in the past few years, in particular the model “As a service”, because it is through this model that SMBs can access, in a more economic way to services that have traditionally been expensive. This model provides the ease of having a service that involves multi-brand computers, in the form of income and with scenarios of technological renewal; lessening the obsolescence of infrastructure, since it prescinds from own equipment. Due to the impact of cloud computing in the business applications, and in our daily lives, it can be said, that this model has come to stay; therefore, it is necessary to carry out a review of the benefits for companies.
