Cloud Storage
Cloud Storage
While creating a site backup is essential for your website’s security, storing your backups
in a secure location is equally important. Unfortunately, many business owners rely on outdated
storage solutions (such as flash drives or local servers), which can cause a loss of vital data and
an increase in unnecessary headaches.
That’s where cloud storage comes in. This stores your data on dedicated servers, and
provides unlimited accessibility wherever an internet connection is available, along with an
increase in backup file security (given that your files won’t be subjected to local server hacks or
data loss).
The Cloud Computing Revolution has opened up many new avenues for executing business
processes and storing business critical or sensitive data. The compelling operational and financial
advantages of cloud powered solutions are driving the migration of organizations towards the
cloud.
What is Cloud?
The term Cloud refers to a Network or Internet. In other
words, we can say that Cloud is something, which is present
at remote location. Cloud can provide services over public
and private networks, i.e., WAN, LAN or VPN.
Although there are downsides to cloud storage, many organizations believe the benefits to far
outweigh the risks. The cost savings, disaster‐recovery, security, and accessibility are just a few
intriguing benefits to businesses. Cloud storage can reduce costs, simplify IT management,
improve user experience, and allow employees to work and collaborate from remote
locations. This simplifies sharing and collaboration among staff, and easing IT logistics as a
whole.
