Today, an organisation’s data is not limited to small files that store employee data. Various kinds of data are being stored and the amount of data is growing day by day. This requires a number of separate servers which at some point in time is not feasible. The IT World has as such come up with a solution called Virtualization. All the data that is required to be stored on the servers is stored on the Cloud in Virtual Servers. These servers can be Database Servers, Web Servers, Application Servers or any other for that matter. Microsoft Azure is such a service that can help the users deploy their data on the net for different purposes.

About Derby

Derby is a city and unitary borough in Derbyshire, England. It is located on the banks of the River Derwent in the south of Derbyshire, of which it was usually the county town. At the 2011 survey, the population was 248,700. Derby increased city status in 1977.

Derby was established by Romans who recognised the town of Derventio, who made Derby one of the Five Boroughs of the Danelaw. Initially a market town, Derby developed rapidly in the industrial age. Home to Lombe's Mill, an early British factory, Derby has a right to be one of the birthplaces of the Industrial Revolution. It covers the southern part of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site. With the influx of the railways in the 19th century, Derby developed a centre of the British rail industry.

Government:

By traditional meanings, Derby is the county town of Derbyshire, although Derbyshire's managerial centre has in recent years been Matlock. On 1 April 1997 Derby City Council turned a unitary authority again, with the rest of Derbyshire managed from Matlock. On 7 July 2014, Derby's first ever youth mayor was chosen. Derby is split into 17 districts.

Geography:

Derby is located in a comparatively low-lying area along the lower valley of the River Derwent and dishonesties between the lowlands and valley of the River Trent to the south, and the south-east foothills of the Pennies to the north which spread to the Peak District National Park further on. The city is surrounded by four national character parts which comprise the Trent Valley Washlands to the south, the Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Yorkshire Coalfields in the east, the South Derbyshire Claylands in the west, and the Derbyshire Peak Fringe in the north. Most of the flat plains nearby Derby lie in the Trent Valley Washlands and South Derbyshire Claylands while the hillier northern parts of the city lie within the Derbyshire Peak Fringe and the Coalfields.

Climate:

Under the Köppen climatic organisation, Derby, in the meanness of its distance to large bodies of water, has an oceanic weather along with the rest of the British Isles. The readings are from the closest station available in Watnall, but climate inclines to be very alike between locations and cities in the region, although the Watnall station is located at a somewhat higher elevation, 17 kilometres (11 mi) to the north.
