APEX and the Cloud

Posted on February 7, 2016 By Adrian Ward

APEX is finally getting the credit it deserves as a corporate tool, and the Cloud is the latest and greatest useful trend in the IT world.  So it makes sense that they come together.

(No i don’t count the Big Data Hype as useful yet)

Its great to see more companies getting involved with Apex consulting and now we see Apex hosting too, which is handy because I recently decided to go for a change in hosting provider.

The table below compares the current providers and options that I used to decide which one to go with.

It seemed a no brainer after comparing the costs!
