An Introduction to Cloud Computing

Cloud computing services are on the rise and it is important for businesses to be aware of the latest technology trends. In particular, the common cloud-based programs are a means of using the Internet as a supplemental way of creating documents. A common type includes Google Docs. With cloud computing, you can access your files anywhere, as long as you have Internet access.

Public: Available to the general public; managed by a cloud services provider

Private: Operated by the organization using it; either the organization or a third-party manages it

Community: Shared by multiple organizations and works together for a common reason; either the organization or a third-party manages it

Hybrid: Consists of two or more of the aforementioned clouds; bound together by a technology that allows data and application portability
