Versatile and risk-free as a service computing
Fujitsu uSCALE for computing power
What is Server as a Service?
The cloud has now become an indispensable technology building block for innovative companies. Thanks to cloud computing, companies have the freedom to use IT resources as needed and cost-effectively for their digitisation goals.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a cloud computing service that provides pay-as-you-go basic computing, storage, and network resources on an as-needed basis. By migrating your enterprise infrastructure to an IaaS solution, you can reduce on-premise data centre maintenance, save on hardware costs, and gain real-time business insights.
Fujitsu uSCALE for Compute offers flexible "as a service" solutions for on-premise IT infrastructures, using PRIMERGY x86 servers to provide the performance, manageability and scalability our customers need to support their diverse workloads, but without the associated costs and the risk of over-provisioning associated with traditional hardware deployments. The servers are available when needed and you only pay for the capacity actually used.
We know many As-a-Service models from our everyday life.
An example of this is music streaming services.
According to a recent survey, almost 30% of respondents use music streaming services at least daily. Several songs and albums are streamed per session, which means that the costs for purchasing the titles individually are significantly higher than the monthly costs for the streaming platform.
With IT infrastructure too, it can take a long time before the one-time acquisition costs pay off compared to an as-a-service model. Such a model also offers many other advantages.

What is cloud computing?
Cloud computing is a model for the provision of IT resources and services in which computing power, storage capacity, databases and other IT infrastructure components are provided as services over the Internet. Users can decide for themselves which resources they want to use and how long they want to use them for.
This means that the services are no longer tied to one location, but can be used from anywhere. This means greater flexibility and scalability for companies which no longer have to provision and manage their IT resources themselves.
Cloud computing enables companies to reduce their IT infrastructure and save costs by only using the resources they actually need. In addition, by using third-party on-demand services, companies can focus on their core business and respond flexibly to ever-changing business needs.
Cloud computing can be used with a variety of different services. The most common services are:
- Infrastructure as a Service (laas)
- Platform as a Service (PaaS)
- Software as a Service (SaaS)
As a result, the use of cloud computing services has increased significantly in recent years, as more and more companies have recognised the advantages of this model. Small and medium-sized companies in particular benefit from the modular structure of the cloud, as they only use the services that they actually need.
Comparison of cloud models: IaaS, PaaS and SaaS
IaaS
(Infrastructure as a Service)
The IaaS environment provides users with a virtual infrastructure that is managed by the provider. This includes network components, server systems and storage space.
The IaaS environment is the most flexible of all cloud environments as it gives users the most control over their environment.
PaaS
(Platform as a Service)
PaaS is a preconfigured environment in which applications can be developed and deployed. PaaS provides a set of tools and components required to successfully deploy an application.
This includes web servers, databases, security functions and control mechanisms. PaaS is less flexible than IaaS as it gives users limited control over their environment.
SaaS
(Software as a Service)
The SaaS environment provides users with a full-featured application that they can use over the Internet. SaaS applications are often delivered through a monthly or yearly subscription.
The SaaS environment is the least flexible of all cloud environments, as users have limited control over their application and its environment.
