The background of the offering

With the dramatic development of cloud technology, the use of cloud servers is increasing, mainly for services from overseas companies. On the other hand, due to the continued weakening of the yen since 2021, the costs of cloud servers in question and on-premises, which are facing rising electricity costs, have risen. In addition, the shortage of infrastructure engineers who are responsible for server operation is becoming more serious (*3), and the cost burden on operations is increasing. With the increasing number of cyberattacks and phishing scams increasing, there is a growing interest in security measures, but there is also a lack of know-how and human resources to take adequate measures.

"ConoHa VPS byGMO Managed Pack" is a service that can solve all of these issues at once. By providing this service, we will contribute to reducing the burden on server operations for many companies.
