Connect your personal device to "Cloud"

"Cloud" is a popular word in our daily life. It means the new computer architecture - using service provider's computer equipment instead of your own. It allows a person or a business to forget about technical details like whether a hard drive is big enough and puts that concern on another party.

Microsoft, Apple, Google, Amazon Web service and others provide such software applications and hosting space for end users to access those applications through a web browser or a light-weight desktop or mobile app.

For example, Microsoft provides Office 365, combining the latest versions of the Office applications (Word, Excel, Outlook, etc) with additional features such as SkyDrive storage and Skype world minutes for family and business to access their common Office functions and emails stored on the remote servers. It helps the family to share documents, photos and emails in distance areas.The Microsoft SharePoint Online helps business to build their collaboration and communication platform between staff, customer and supplier in an easy managed and cost effective way.   

In another sample, Google docs provides on line editing documents, spreadsheets and presentations, or create new ones from scratch stored in Internet. You could access and edit it any where and even more that you can invite people to your documents and make changes together, at the same time (you can see others typing words in real time).

There are also other applications such as asana.com provides on line task management, Saasu.com - an Online Accounting platform, Hitchat - an online group chat room and most of the important is Mozypro.com which provides online backup in the "Cloud" environment.

However, people still need to concern the information security and service availability - "Cloud" is not a 100% safe and stable environment. You should regularly change the Login credential and backup the important information offline. 

In summarise,  using cloud technology can improve your Computer applications experience and convenience and save your cost in maintenance Computer equipment. It's Win-Win solution for both end user and service providers.
