Imagine having your PC, your cell phone, and your iPad all being
in sync—all the time. Imagine being able to access all of your
personal data, your bank accounts,
your investments, or the location of your partner at any given
moment. Imagine having the ability to organize and retrieve data
from any online source. Imagine being able to share that
data—photos, movies, contacts, e-mail, documents, and so forth—with
your friends, family, and co-workers in an instant. Imagine being
able to do this without
being tethered to an Ethernet cable. Everything is wireless and
security is ensured. This is what personal cloud computing promises
to deliver.
Now move this into the business realm. Companies can make all of
their data available through simple apps. Every employee, no matter
where they are located, can set
up an instant office with a simple and secure wireless connection.
New applications are instantly deployed globally to all employees
when they are ready. All employees
are looking at the same data, using the same application software,
and reacting to the same real-time information.
The savings on cabling, on server utilization, training, and
support are dramatic. But the real benefits come from optimization
and more consistent decisions, sharing customer information, and
transparency from knowing the exact current status of the firm.
