Widely used in companies of the most varied sizes and areas of activity, datacenters are computers whose function is to store important data, applications and other information that are considered relevant to companies.
They usually occupy a specific room, and because they are on for many hours during the day, they generate a high cost of energy and, in addition, they need constant maintenance.
Faced with the innovations developed by technology, datacenters began to be gradually replaced by the cloud system, which can be considered a great advance within corporations. This advance had an impact on productivity within companies, changes in the routine of employees and great flexibility in carrying out tasks.
Access to information and documents that was previously only done through datacenters can now be done very easily through the cloud. In addition, documents began to be shared among employees, which contributed to the integration of activities and even routine of employees.
This migration, however, can generate some doubts and insecurities on the part of administrators, managers or business owners.
In this article we will explain in topics how using the cloud is safer than data centers and other advantages, check it out!
1. Integrity and secure data:
Keeping files in datacenters or even on an external hard drive is not safe. These two types of storage can be damaged, due to incorrect use or failures that involve malfunctions or even incompatibility. Keeping files in the cloud is safe precisely because these files are available online, which allows for faster, more practical access at any time, inside or outside the company. Companies that offer cloud services also have several solutions for information recovery in case it is lost and scheduled and continuous backups, as well as restoration tools in case of an unforeseen event.
2. Data Privacy:
Another great advantage of using the cloud in your company is that companies specializing in these services sign commitments to protect their data and privacy. It is also possible to control access to information, which also provides more confidence and security for managers and administrators.
3. Encrypted data:
Another practice made by companies that offer cloud services is data encryption, which protects information against possible intrusions or improper access attempts. Encryption provides more security because it “splits” a file into some parts, saving to different locations. When any of these locations is invaded, only a part of the file will be accessed. The time to choose a company that works with cloud services is also important: research the trajectory and credibility of the companies you found, talk a lot and ask all your questions before making an investment like this.
