The purpose of Cloud Computing is to offer flexible computing resources to both individuals and companies, without the need to invest in hardware, allowing users to rent only the resources they require.
The cloud is a technology that allows data storage, access to software applications and the use of processing resources through remote servers. These servers ensure accessibility from anywhere with an Internet connection.
According to Statista’s report, the global cloud services market reached an estimated value of more than $300 billion by 2021. This figure demonstrates the growing importance of cloud computing in the technology industry worldwide in recent years.
One of the main reasons for companies to use Cloud Computing is its ability to reduce costs. IDC (International Data Corporation), a leading market and technology research institution, reported that 85% of companies that migrated to the cloud have saved significant costs in IT infrastructure.
The COVID-19 pandemic also accelerated the use of the cloud as many companies had to adapt quickly to new ways of working and collaborating remotely.
Cloud Computing serves several functions:
Use of Software on Demand:
Users can access a wide range of software applications, from simple word processing to complex image editing tools, without having to install them on their local devices.
Increased Collaboration:
Cloud-based tools enable collaboration between team members, allowing them to work on shared documents simultaneously.
Secure Access:
Cloud services implement strong security measures, requiring users to authenticate themselves before accessing their data, ensuring data privacy.
Scalable Storage:
Users can expand their storage space as needed, adapting to changes without the need to invest in physical hardware.
Automatic Software Updates:
Cloud providers take care of software updates, ensuring that users always have access to the latest features and enhancements.
Backup copy:
Backup is an essential practice to ensure the integrity and availability of data in the event of loss, damage or unforeseen incidents. The cloud has revolutionized the way in which backups are performed and managed, offering advanced solutions to protect the information of individuals and companies.
Cloud Computing is synonymous with the technological evolution of companies around the world. With its rapid expansion and its ability to deliver benefits in terms of agility, scalability and efficiency.
