In addition, the cloud cost model provides the ultimate in flexibility for small to medium-sized businesses to find the right solution for their budget. They only pay for the applications they use.
"Through the Intel AppUp Small Business Service, Intel is offering Service Providers access to a complete, end-to-end solution that combines the benefits of the cloud with the advantages of an on-premises server, and enables them to offer their customers core business applications via our pay-as-you-go software model," said Bridget Karlin, General Manager, Intel Hybrid Cloud.

Small business customers access the solution through service providers, paying on a monthly basis for the software they use, just like in the cloud, but getting the responsiveness and control of running their applications and data onsite.
