What is Cloud Computing and Cloud Storage?

The term cloud in cloud computing often identifies the

cloud image in images representing the Internet. Cloud

computing could involve an extensive array of hosted

services, which primarily include forms of cloud

machines and cloud storage. Cloud storage may be the

process of storing and burning data on computers,

making data accessible through the Web.

With about cloud computing, your data doesn't have to

be located on-site and can theoretically be located

anywhere; which begs the question, is the data safe if

you don't have physical control of it?

Professionals to Published Storage:

Depending on configuration, companies could opt to share resources on a server, allowing them

to share the cost of the server with other companies. Although the machine is officially shared,

other organizations/people don't have access your data. The disadvantage to sharing machine

resources is the fact that it permits less customizability and integration with your company. For

this reason, larger organizations with more advanced needs will broadly speaking opt for a

private machine, where they lose the cost saving advantage, but still enjoy the other benefits,

such as the availability of cloud storage.

Negatives of Published Storage

Localized storage may possibly provide people with part of mind, knowing that their information

is in their company, in a host that they could actually see and touch. This concern is justified as

numerous consumers are unaware that cloud storage providers may possibly send their

information to places where its' safety can be compromised through international laws. For

instance, on a cloud server located somewhere in the United States if your Canadian lawyer

stores their files, sensitive client data might be compromised through the US Patriot Act. For this

reason, with respect to the nature of business, it may be in your best interest to analyze where the

cloud provider's data servers are.

Setting up a nearby private server could be very costly, as companies will have to spend money

on server and workstation related equipment, software licenses, installing patches, anti-virus

software, upgrades and much more annually on employing the IT staff to implement, control and

maintain it.

Cloud Storage Summarize

Pros:

Cheaper than private servers

Data is obtainable from anywhere

Company continuity as data may be supported automatically

Cons:

Physical location of information is often unknown

Information is at the mercy of what the law states of where it's based

Small to medium-sized businesses generally speaking

have one of the most to achieve through
