Tech Talk : Cloud Vs Traditional

Cloud VS Traditional Computing

Cloud computing means storing and accessing data and programs over the Internet instead of your computer’s hard drive. The cloud is just a metaphor for the Internet, as the cloud symbol was originally used to represent the internet in flowcharts and diagrams.

Traditional Computing		Cloud Based Computing
All data is stored on an internal hard drive.		All data is stored in a remote/external server (cloud).
Equipment failure or theft usually means loss of all or part of the data.		Data is stored safety in the cloud, and equipment failure or theft does not result in loss of data.
Each additional program requires installation and often expanded IT knowledge.		You only need to install one application which is a gateway to the resources in the cloud where a set of verified applications is already waiting for you.
You are forced to bear the costs of the hardware and operating system. You will also have to pay for almost any additional application you wish to install; such as malware protection software, Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft SCCM, etc.		Normally, One subscription fee is all that is required which gives you access to a computer with an operating system. Some cloud service provider provides specific application software for your business needs.
Efficient and speed of your computer depends on the computer. If the compyer equipment is old and inefficient, some application may not work properly or worst still may not run.		Operation of the computer in the cloud is completely independent of parameters and computer power of the equipment you use.
If you do not have access to the device, you cannot connect to its resources.		You can access your resources from anywhere using any device with internet access.
