Answer 1

Cloud Computing:-

Cloud computing is a developing technology and it can be seen as a process of utilizing the remote server network which is hosted on the internet to manage, process or store data. In this, the data is not stored on the local server but it is stored in a centralized server which is located remotely and it can be accessed anytime. The main benefit of this technology is the reduced dependence on the licensed applications or software and the facility for terminal maintenance. As the data is stored in a remote centralized server, thus the chances of loosing the valuable data and information in case of local server failure are reduced significantly. In fact, many companies are utilizing cloud computing for reducing the investment in the application software as it is possible to access these software from a remote location by a number of users. Along with this, these software can be accessed from any location on a 24x7 basis without having any probability of server downtime. Thus this technology facilitates a greater flexibility to the organization and cost reduction opportunities.
