Your hardware is depreciating and deteriorating, and it’s only a matter of time before you need a refresh. Vendors stop supporting old models and educational institutions are forced to incur huge capital expenses in order to update hardware that will need updating itself in a few short years. Migrating to the cloud guarantees you the hardware you need when you need it, and fewer expenses when you don’t. Research will no longer wait for the hardware procurement cycle or be subject to the whims of your servers – always on, always available hardware is just a cloud migration away.
