Others go very broad, arguing anything you consume outside the firewall is &#8220;in the cloud,&#8221; including conventional outsourcing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What are the advantages of cloud computing?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If used properly and to the extent necessary, working with<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> data <a href=\"http:\/\/mobiledevices.about.com\/od\/mobileappbasics\/tp\/The-Google-Apps-Marketplace-Is-Now-On-Cloud-9.htm\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">in the cloud<\/span><\/a> can vastly ben<\/span>efit all types of businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the advantages of this technology are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cost Efficient<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Cloud computing is probably the most cost efficient method to use, maintain and upgrade. Traditional desktop software costs companies a lot in terms of finance. Adding up the licensing fees for multiple users can prove to be very expensive for the establishment concerned. The cloud, on the other hand, is available at much cheaper rates and hence, can significantly lower the company\u2019s IT expenses. Besides, there are many one-time-payment, pay-as-you-go and other scalable options available, which makes it very reasonable for the company in question.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Almost Unlimited Storage<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Storing information in the cloud gives you almost unlimited storage capacity. Hence, you no more need to worry about running out of storage space or increasing your current storage space availability.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Backup and Recovery<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Since all your data is stored in the cloud, backing it up and restoring the same is relatively much easier than storing the same on a physical device. Furthermore, <span style=\"color: #000000;\">most <a href=\"http:\/\/mobiledevices.about.com\/od\/additionalresources\/tp\/5-Of-The-Best-Third-Party-Mobile-Cloud-Sync-Providers.htm\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">cloud service providers<\/span><\/a> are usua<\/span>lly competent enough to handle recovery of information. Hence, this makes the entire process of backup and recovery much simpler than other traditional methods of data storage.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Automatic Software Integration<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the cloud, software integration is usually something that occurs automatically. This means that you do not need to take additional efforts to customize and integrate your applications as per your preferences. This aspect usually takes care of itself. Not only that, cloud computing allows you to customize your options with great ease. Hence, you can handpick just those services and software applications that you think will best suit your particular enterprise.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a0<strong>Easy Access to Information<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once you register yourself in the cloud, you can access the information from anywhere, where there is an Internet connection. This convenient feature lets you move beyond time zo<span style=\"color: #000000;\">ne and <a href=\"http:\/\/mobiledevices.about.com\/od\/marketingapps\/tp\/How-Location-Based-Services-Can-Benefit-B2b-Companies.htm\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">geographic location<\/span><\/a> <\/span>issues.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Quick Deployment<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Lastly and most importantly, cloud computing gives you the advantage of quick deployment. Once you opt for this method of functioning, your entire system can be fully functional in a matter of a few minutes. Of course, the amount of time taken here will depend on the exact kind of technology that you need for your business.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What are the disadvantages of cloud computing?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In spite of its many benefits, as mentioned above, cloud computin<span style=\"color: #000000;\">g also <a href=\"http:\/\/mobiledevices.about.com\/od\/additionalresources\/tp\/The-Risks-Involved-In-Cloud-Computing.htm\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">has its disadvantages<\/span><\/a>. Businesses,<\/span> especially smaller ones, need to be aware of these cons before going in for this technology.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Technical Issues<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Though it is true that information and data on the cloud can be <span style=\"color: #000000;\">accessed anytime and from anywhere at all, there are times when this system can have some serious dysfunction. You should be aware of the fact that this technology is always prone to outages and other technical issues. Even the <a href=\"http:\/\/mobiledevices.about.com\/od\/additionalresources\/tp\/Best-10-Cloud-Computing-Providers-For-2011.htm\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">best cloud service providers<\/span><\/a> run into this kind of trouble, in spite of keeping up high standards of maintenance. Besides, you will need a very good Internet connection to be logged onto the server at all times. You will invariably be stuck in case of network and connectivity problems.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Security in the Cloud<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The other major issue while in the cloud is that of <a href=\"http:\/\/mobiledevices.about.com\/b\/2011\/10\/28\/mobile-security-and-the-enterprise-sector.htm\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">security issues<\/span><\/a>. Befo<\/span>re adopting this technology, you should know that you will be surrendering all your company\u2019s sensitive information to a third-party cloud service provider. This could potentially put your company to great risk. Hence, you need to make absolutely sure that you choose the most reliable service provider, who will keep your information totally secure.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Prone to Attack<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Storing information in the cloud could make your company vulnerable<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> to external <a href=\"http:\/\/mobiledevices.about.com\/od\/reviewsandmore\/a\/Sony-Experiences-Yet-Another-Hack-Attack-Freezes-Gamers-Accounts.htm\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">hack attacks<\/span><\/a> and thre<\/span>ats.
