The Benefits of Cloud Storage
Cloud storage is, simply put, a game changer. Being able to access files digitally from anywhere in the world has opened up countless new possibilities in business.
Cost-Effective Storage
Cloud storage is a great cost-saver. Without having to purchase larger servers to store your files or pay for server maintenance, you can free up much needed office space and save the money that you would have paid for in-person maintenance.
Improved Collaboration
Collaboration is key for many employees. The implementation of touchdown spaces has allowed for improved teamwork and open communication in office environments.
Cloud storage further encourages this kind of collaboration. By keeping documents on the cloud, coworkers can work on the same project from different computers at the same time. Not to mention, by keeping documents on the cloud, anyone can work on a project even if a particular teammate is out of the office.
Types Of Cloud Storage
There are a few different types of cloud storage. It all comes down to which is right for your business. From public to private to hybrid, all have significant benefits.
Private Cloud Storage
Private cloud storage is, as the name decrees, private. It is client-owned, operated, and accessed, allowing for tremendous security. This type of cloud storage allows for high flexibility and customization. However, as it is privately owned and operated, if something were to happen to breach the security measures, it might be more difficult to retrieve sensitive files.
Public Cloud Storage
Public cloud storage is separately owned and operated, but user-password protected. There is little to no maintenance needed and a high reliability, due to the multitude of servers used by the owner of the cloud service. Given the nature of a it being a separately owned and operated service, some security issues may occur. These are, however, infrequent.
Hybrid Cloud Storage
Hybrid cloud storage is owned and accessed by the client, but it is operated by a private company. This allows for large amounts of data to be stored and secured at once, due to the high number of servers used by the cloud service owner. This can also give an extra level of security for the user.
