This week we want to continue keeping you informed about cloud computing. One of its main benefits is mobility. Both processing and data storage occur in the cloud, which makes smartphones and portables (iPads, netbooks) more ideal. These devices provide a simpler and more efficient way for users to connect within a secure network. This certainly is easier than carrying around a laptop.
If you have a mobile sales force, on-site technician, or other employees that work outside the office, these features can be really beneficial. Think about a nurse in a hospital. If she carries around an iPad, she can have complete access to patient medical records, which then are updated within the hospital’s cloud database. There are tons of industries or organizations that can reap these advantages.
Always remember that in order for this all to work effectively, it is important to choose a cloud partner that has a reliable history. The cloud in which your data resides must ALWAYS be up. It is crucial to research both reliability and security procedures before making your choice.
