Cloud Computing: Advantages

by cloudcomputing2013

We may not realize that we use cloud computing in our everyday lives, but what is the good and bad about it?

Cloud computing has many different advantages and very little disadvantages, today companies are limited in their resources, so cloud computing is a good way, and a cheap way for companies to have all the resources they need in once place for all their employees without the cost. Along with it being cheaper, it’s an overall better way to spread their resources, it becomes easier to access things from longer distances, say on a international business trip. Today with all the new technology you don’t even have to have a computer to access these types of things, they can be accessed right on your mobile phone or tablet even. The implication of remote desktops(RDP’s), is a great way to access things around the world, companies can put all the things they need onto one or more RDP’s and then people can access as they need to, there’s no more need for papers to be passed out in the meeting or folders full of stuff when everything is just on a computer. Think about it too, if you were to stack 500 gigabytes or more of documents that you needed to have on a computer, compare that to all the documents that you would have had to print out, waste ink on and have the more probable chance to loose, which goes along with the idea that you won’t loose things as much, Cloud computing has backup, and  if something goes wrong, the chances of you having a backup is pretty well, but what if you loose that important paper that you needed? is there a backup on that? Well sometimes, but not ALL the time is the problem.
