Cloud storage: the future of storage devices

Cloud storage is a way of storing digital data off-site in remote databases which is different from your usual data storage that you store data in your internal and external drives.

Wikipedia sees cloud storage as a mode of data storage where digital data are stored in logical pools, in which the physical storage spans across multiple servers operated and hosted by third party hosting companies.

Whichever be the case, both definition are exactly what cloud storage entails.
Cloud storage: the future of storage devices

In my personal visualization for cloud storage, I will like you to also picture it in literal manner of storing data in the cloud. 

A new and fast growing technology of storing data to your devices that can easily be synchronize in the cloud (remote database) with huge advantage over your external and internal storage devices like your hard disc drive, flash drives, CD and DVD discs etc.,


The data stored in the cloud can be retrieved and manipulated anytime anywhere without having to need the physical presence of the personal devices where the data were stored.


Then also for those that like gathering or accumulating plenty of heavy data to their devices, but always have the fear of where to store these data or maybe fear that their devices will slow down having these numerous data in them, cloud storage is just the answer.

No doubt that cloud storage does have its own shortcomings, like the fear of private data being compromised by disgruntled third party host worker or hackers trying to delve into private data that are stored in the cloud, cloud storage is a modern technology that has come to take its position in the ways data are stored in devices, and will most likely undo the conventional disc storage in the coming future.

As each day passes by, more people tend to embrace cloud computing and storage. Companies are not left out as more companies are also embracing it and providing more cloud storage services.


Companies like Microsoft has its Skydrive and Onedrive cloud storage service, while Google offer Google drive for cloud storage, Apple as iCloud for same purpose and other notable companies that have also embrace the modern cloud storage trend are Dropbox, Amazon Cloud, Box, Mediafire etc.

With all these major companies offering one or more forms of cloud storage, one could only but begin to see the future in cloud computing and storage.

  1. Most cloud storage services and cloudwedge are based on a utility style model that means the business. All they need is a computing device laptop, tablet or smartphone that is be exploring in more detail in a forthcoming article here on future thinking. This is simply because it helps the data center to work like the web employing the computing resources, which need to be accessed and then shared like the virtual resources in the most secured and scalable fashion. thanks
