Malaysia’s leading cloud advisory and brokerage specialist, G-Asiapacific Sdn Bhd, today states that the adoption of Cloud as the computing model of choice for enterprise business applications is fast on the rise.

According to G-AP director, KK Goh, the main driver for this rapid growth is due to the fact that the enterprise IT solution market in Malaysia is at a ‘tipping point’ whereby finally the decision makers are convinced that Cloud computing is the best way to move forward.

He says, “Malaysian businesses are finally taking the plunge to free themselves from legacy, CAPEX-heavy ICT investments that have burdened them over the last two decades. Cloud computing immediately offers a much ‘lighter’, quickly scalable OPEX-based system that is powerful and reliable. It is no wonder that G-AP’s deployment of Cloud-based applications has easily doubled over the past 12 months and with a growing queue of genuine organisations eager to convert.”

G-AP is the only certified Cloud solution provider in the country that provides all major Cloud brand – Google, Amazon Web Services (‘AWS’) and Microsoft. According to KK, the popularity of these three global Cloud brands vary at the different layers of the organisations’ IT structure.

Founder and CEO Mark Goh says this is where G-AP comes in with its strongest proposition, being the Cloud Service Provider in the country who provides unique cloud agnostic method with no lock-in on Google, Amazon AWS and Microsoft platforms. He shares, “The fact is that businesses do not need to be tied down to any particular cloud technology, because with the right certified Cloud Service Provider, you can save cost, increase productivity and easily move from one Cloud platform to another seamlessly with no disruption to business operations.”
