Over the past 10 years many companies have moved their business computing from on-premises to the public cloud on the assumption that this would accelerate their operations while lowering their operating cost. However, as reported in the Barclay CIO Survey for 2024 report, many companies are now rethinking their next step with more considering private cloud and on-premises computing. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and the rising cost of public cloud computing plays an important part in their decision. Data security and the ability to maintain control of their business data are other important driving factors. At Phora Group, we focus on providing private cloud and on-premises solutions for SME and large enterprises. Our iPhora products provide the easy-of-use experience that users have experienced with public cloud solution in the private environment of your choice.

Phora Group understand that your business processes are some of your most guarded secrets within your company. Our iPhora solutions emphasizes many of the factors why businesses are moving to private computing:

• Data control
• Data privacy
• Data continuity
• Data security

As businesses start to see the benefits of using AI they also express concerns about where AI is getting their training data and how to keep that data private. With the trend towards private computing, we see growth in private AI platforms and Small Language Models (SLMs). At Phora Group, we are committed to the privacy and security of your data as we start incorporating AI to help you make those critical decisions in your business.
