Cloud services aren’t just highly adaptable — they’re available all over the world. It’s not surprising that many companies are transitioning from traditional data centers to cloud computing.

Cloud computing, by contrast, is delivered on-demand via the internet. Cloud computing services provide computing and storage capacity, databases, and networks, as well as other related services.

Your personal computer’s “compute power” allows it to run applications and process data. When working on the cloud, a computing service performs these functions — allowing you to create a cloud-based PowerPoint presentation for work, for example. After you create your PowerPoint, you need to save it — meaning, you need storage capacity. The trouble with storing data on your laptop’s hard drive is that hard drives sometimes crash — and data gets lost. Cloud storage allows you to securely preserve data on remote servers, for whatever length of time you want. By storing data in the cloud, you lower the risk of losing data because it is stored on multiple servers, ...
