Cloud computing is alive and flourishing. It has become the popular technology tool for many who want to shift from local PC/Network computer storage and processing to external computers in “the cloud” (on the Internet) handling these types of services.
E-mail, word processing and financial systems are all examples of information that may no longer exist at a company’s physical site and reside somewhere in cyberspace.
