Is cloud computing suitable for medical practices?

Yes, increasingly so. Cloud solutions like Gentu (cloud Genie), Microsoft 365, cloud backup, and hosted communication platforms are well-suited for medical practices. SkyComm ensures all cloud services meet healthcare compliance requirements.

Where is cloud data stored?

SkyComm uses Australian data centres (Azure Australia and local providers) to ensure data sovereignty compliance. Your data stays in Australia.

How much does cloud hosting cost?

Cloud costs vary by workload. A basic cloud server might cost $100-300/month, while larger environments scale accordingly. Cloud often reduces total IT costs by eliminating hardware purchases and reducing maintenance. We provide detailed cost analyses.

Can SkyComm migrate our servers to the cloud?

Yes. We plan and execute cloud migrations including server assessment, migration strategy, testing, cutover, and post-migration optimisation with minimal disruption to your operations.

What happens if the internet goes down with cloud?

SkyComm implements redundant internet connections with 4G/5G failover for cloud-dependent environments. For critical applications, we can also configure local caching and offline capabilities.

SkyComm migrated our ageing on-premise server to Azure over a weekend. Performance improved dramatically, we eliminated $15,000 in upcoming hardware costs, and our team can now access everything securely from home.

Cloud Solutions for Perth Businesses & Medical Practices

The shift to cloud computing is transforming how Perth businesses operate — from medical practices in Subiaco moving clinical software to hosted environments, to corporate offices in the CBD migrating file servers to SharePoint and OneDrive. SkyComm designs and implements cloud strategies that deliver flexibility, cost savings, and enhanced security for organisations of every size.

Our cloud expertise spans Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, AWS, and specialist hosted environments for clinical software including Best Practice, Medical Director, and Genie Solutions. We handle cloud migration planning, data transfer, hybrid configuration for organisations maintaining on-premise servers alongside cloud services, and ongoing cloud infrastructure management. SkyComm also deploys Azure Virtual Desktop for secure remote working and Citrix environments for performance-intensive applications.

Cloud security is built into every deployment. SkyComm implements Azure AD Conditional Access, data loss prevention policies, encryption at rest and in transit, geo-redundant backups, and compliance configurations for Australian data sovereignty requirements. For medical practices, we ensure cloud deployments meet RACGP, Privacy Act, and PIP eHealth requirements — with data hosted exclusively in Australian data centres.
