What Is Cloud Computing?
Cloud computing involves the secure storage and maintenance of data and applications on remote servers. This empowers staff to access critical information stored on the cloud wherever and whenever they need it.
With public clouds, information is stored and maintained on a multitenant server, meaning others’ data and applications may also be housed on the server holding your information.
With private clouds, information is stored and maintained on a server dedicated to your company only. Private cloud servers can be leased or purchased, and they can be housed onsite or offsite (at a business or a datacenter). Generally, private clouds are necessary for compliance in highly regulated industries (like healthcare).
