BaaS Provider, Comport, Provides Six Reasons Why the Rise of IoT is Driving BaaS Adoption
RAMSEY, N.J., Feb. 28, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Comport, a leading BaaS provider recently held a discussion centered on the proliferation of the IoT and the subsequent rise in BaaS needs. The following are a few of the most important reasons BaaS has seen a CAGR of around 27% for the period between 2018 and 2022.
-- Need for anytime access - The need for real time connectivity will
increase as the IoT is widely accepted into the commercial space. People
will expect complete connectivity with the devices they bring into the
office. Companies that are prepared to embrace this trend rather than
fight it by utilizing BaaS will be in a better place for compliance and
data retention.
-- Easily scalable - Backup in the cloud can be easily scaled to meet the
growing level of data coming from additional devices. This would be
nearly impossible for a company to achieve through onsite backups.
-- Extreme data growth - 90% of the total amount of data in the world was
created over the past two years. Smartphones are at the head of this
explosion, but once smart appliances are added to the mix, the number
will again expand exponentially. Companies need to take this trend
seriously and expand their data protection to these devices with
enterprise cloud backup.
-- Compliance need for this data - Particularly in industries such as
healthcare, IoT devices can provide valuable information for better
patient care. This information however if integrated can be subject to
compliance standards. Achieve better care and compliance by integration
with a BaaS Provider.
-- The need for Immediate Access: Many companies have been burned by data
being housed on an individual person's device, without a backup, that is
then corrupted. Having immediate access to data that is being backed up
via enterprise cloud protection ensures that that data will be readily
available when you need it.
-- Doesn't require large investment for upgrades - With data growing
rapidly, the rip and replace backup solution many companies have had in
the past just isn't cutting it. Companies can't afford to wait for the
additional hardware to back up their data. Many virtual machines are
being over provisioned as it is! BaaS gives you the ability to expand
your storage as you need it without significant hardware investments.
-- Higher security - Cyber Threats are increasing and hitting headlines on
a daily basis. Companies need to protect their company from significant
data loss. With BaaS, you have an air gap between your systems and your
last backup, providing you extra protection in the event of a security
breach.
"IoT Devices are being used in your organization. The question you need to answer is if you choose to deal with this now or when there is an issue of data retention." said Eric Young, Principal Cloud Architect at ComportSecure. "Organizations need to start thinking about how they should backup All their data, not just the data housed within the four walls of their buildings. BaaS Providers such as Comport can help you create a strategic data retention plan that includes IoT devices."
