Hi <br />
<br />
I am giving some advise to my customers as to the servers to purchase. I am very familar with the actual hardware. However, more of my customers are planning to purchase virtual servers in the cloud. <br />
<br />
One of the common questions that I face is that the users keep asking me if the secondary IP is necessary. My question what is the secondary IP Secondly will not purchasing the secondary IP cause any issues? <br />
<br />
Thank you,

Cloud computing, also known as on-demand computing, is a kind of Internet-based computing where shared resources and information are provided to computers and other devices. It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources. Cloud computing and storage solutions provide users and enterprises with various capabilities to store and process their data in third-party data centers, relying on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economies of scale.
