How many times a day do we hear about "the cloud"? If you have a phone or tablet computer, you're using cloud storage every day! It's the biggest buzzword in the technology world, and many are worried how safe the cloud is with their data.
Why it's called the cloud has nothing to do with data zipping through the sky, but from the graphic used in the 1960s that was a picture of a cloud to depict a telephone network. The cloud is, in simple terms, a combination of hosted apps, data storage and remote server access through the internet. It is where all of these applications and data are stored. Social networks and email applications are two of the most common uses of the cloud.
One easy example of using the cloud is music purchases. Millions of people purchase music on iTunes or Amazon every day, and use that music on their computer, tablet and phone. The reason that you can access that music on all of your devices is because it's stored in the cloud. This also applies to photos, videos, apps and other items that are downloaded to your phone, but used across multiple devices.
So while many of us use the cloud to store data and services and access them via the internet on a personal level, did you know that the same concepts can be applied to a business application? Many businesses store subscriber lists, customer data and payment information in the cloud so that employees in many areas can have access to that information with a few clicks. Here are just a few advantages of utilizing the cloud for business.
