How to protect your cloud investment with managed services

Your Cloud project is finally complete, data migration was successful and it's live! But what now? How can the cloud environment be protected into the future to ensure the investment is protected? Usually we protect our assets through the use of insurance but when it comes to technology, Managed Services provides the protection we need.

So how do Managed Services act like insurance for your IT investments?
