What is Cloud Computing? What does it mean?
Cloud computing refers to technology resources available to you "on-demand" via the Internet, while with the conventional on-premise IT your company runs its applications exclusively on its own internal infrastructure, including servers, storage, networks, firewalls and other hardware. In a few words, with cloud technology your apps, softwares, are always available with any device provided with an internet connection, without any installing on each single machine or computer. This way, you can access your data anywhere, anytime, with any device. Just think about Facebook: guess what if it were installed on your home pc. That would mean you cannot use it as you use to do. Now imagine Facebook is your company: would you like to take it always with you, even on your smartphone or tablet?
