Cloud computing is a model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.
The concept of cloud computing fills a perpetual need of IT: a way to increase capacity or add capabilities on the fly without investing in new infrastructure, training new personnel, or licensing new software. Cloud computing encompasses any subscription-based or pay-per-use service that, in real time over the Internet, extends IT's existing capabilities. [Wikipedia]
ImageSite uses GoDaddy Web Hosting Solutions to enable ImageSite Cloud.
SaaS - Software as a Service
While Cloud Computing referes to the infrastructure behind your applications, SaaS refers to the ability to simply subscribe to an application that is running as a service. ImageSite is available as a service running "in the cloud", allowing you to simply subscribe to ImageSite on a monthly basis and start using it today.
ImageSite Cloud is a document management, distribution and collaboration solution built upon three pillars of system security including infrastructure security, data storage protection, and application access security.
Running on the GoDaddy infrastructure platform, ImageSite Cloud takes advantage of GoDaddy's extensive monitoring systems for its buildings, servers and networks. Best of breed routers, firewalls and servers with 27x7 dedicated support ensure the highest level of infrastructure stability, reliability and access.
Data Protection
ImageSite Cloud offers full and incremental backups of documents and files stored with offsite retention of backed up data to ensure mission critical data can be quickly recovered in the event of disaster.
Application Access
ImageSite Cloud offers comprehensive role-based document level application security. Authorized users configure security profiles based on Users and/or Groups which determine the levels of data access including the right to View, Delete, Create New Documents, Create New Folders, Download, Annotate, Check-Out/In, and Selectively Modify Metadata. The ImageSite security architecture is both Folder based --for ease of management, and Document based --for the extensive security control.

Avoid hardware, networking and IT support issues altogether by using ImageSite Cloud. We'll have you up and running in no time with your own secure ImageSite cabinet for internal company use, for collaboration with your outside partners, or both. That's the beauty of our SaaS (Software as a Service) solution.
ImageSite Configuration
We will configure one or more secure ImageSite Cabinets depending upon your needs and based on discussions and your responses to a simple pre-installation questionnaire. This initial configuration will include document metadata, folder structure, users, groups,security, and other system settings.
Our consulting services provide advice and guidance but you make decisions about how you want your ImageSite system to work. We then configure ImageSite without programming; using out-of-the-box configuration controls to meet your specific requirements.
