Cloud computing and cloud hosting: The sky’s the limit

‘Cloud computing’ and ‘cloud hosting’ are two of those geeky buzz phrases that confuse people. Well, we don’t believe in elitist terminology, especially when we’re talking about technologies that could revolutionise your online presence and way of doing business. So here’s our guide to cloud computing and hosting, and how our web design studio in Perth can help you tap into the cloud.

What are cloud computing and cloud hosting?

In basic terms, cloud computing and cloud hosting turn conventional computing and hosting on its head. Instead of running applications and storing files locally (on your PC), you run and host everything remotely.

Think of the cloud as the electricity grid. You don’t have a power station at home. You just plug into a socket and away you go. The cloud concept is exactly the same. We’re talking about internet-based computing, with shared off-site resources, software and information accessed by computers and other devices on demand.

Why is all this cloud stuff important?

Broadband speeds are getting faster. File sizes are getting bigger, especially when it comes to applications and downloading media files. Mobile internet access is becoming the norm, with all the limitation in terms of storage that mobile devices have.

The solution? Host everything off-site and simply tap into it or stream information as and when you need it.

And that’s why cloud computing and cloud hosting has the potential to change, streamline and improve the way we all do business online. It will enable you, your employees and your partners to work faster and more collaboratively in a shared on-demand environment without any geographical boundaries. Imagine the possibilities...
