Benefits of Cloud Technology

Cloud is an online storage service that offers convenience for web-based programs that do not require any installation. The storage of all applications, programs and data hosted on the internet on a virtual machine (cloud), and the service that can easily access this information, programs and data from any device with an internet connection is called cloud technology. Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and many other technology giants use cloud technology and also sell it.

No Physical Limitations!

Before cloud technology, data was stored on hard disks (HDD), DVDs, etc. Over time, as the amount of data stored increased, there was a lack of space. While data used to be at the “megabyte” level, now we store much larger data (gigabytes). In addition to storing data, companies also have to back it up. At this point, cloud technology comes into play as a solution. The cloud provides many benefits such as more storage space than physically used HDDs, fast data transfer and cost savings on backup. We can say that the workload of companies is considerably lighter with the cloud.

Easy Installation

Fast installation and ease of use. The connection is established with an interface that allows interaction between the cloud enabler and the computer or other devices, enabling communication between the device and the user. There is no need to install on every device where the application will be used. It eliminates negativities such as cost, time loss and workload caused by installation. In addition, APIs can be used in cloud technology, so integration with the systems needed can be achieved.

Accessibility

Virtualization in cloud technology enables the sharing and increased utilization of servers and storage devices. The data on the existing virtual machine can be easily transferred from a different device with sharing permission. There is no dependency on the device where the data is located. Thanks to this sharing feature, data can be accessed from any device connected to the cloud and at any time (for example: phone, tablet, computer, even air conditioner, etc.). It allows work follow-up even in situations such as vacation, working from home, traveling.

Compatibility

Cloud technology is suitable for companies from all sectors. For example, the cloud service offered to dental clinics with Dr.DENTES clinic management software is also applicable to an apartment management and monitoring system such as Bardacık. It meets the needs of companies in different sectors.

High Security

There are no risks such as natural disasters, physical wear and tear, harmful environmental factors, uninformed or malicious people making data inaccessible and theft. Data exchange is done with encryption algorithms, preventing outside interference. Advanced security systems prevent attacks such as modification, corruption or theft of stored data. Security updates are instantly applied to the system, thus providing protection against new viruses, attack methods, etc. harmful activities. With multiple backups, even if one of the systems has a problem, operations can be carried out from another system without interruption, and users are not affected by the problem. Authorization can be done by setting permissions that will allow only the desired people and devices to access the data.

Backup

The level of reliability is high thanks to multiple backup systems in cloud technology. Data loss is minimized with backup simplified with these systems. It facilitates planned backup operations for business continuity. There is no need to shut down the system etc. to take a backup. Backup taking does not cause business interruption.

Continuous Maintenance and Update

Cloud technology applications are very easy to maintain. There is no need to perform maintenance work on the computer of each user who will use the application. Updates are delivered to all devices connected to the cloud in a very short time. Each user does not have to download and install the update separately, simplifying deployment. Users use the current deployed application without the need to perform an update process.

Scalability

Storage areas can be easily expanded as needed. There are no new hardware costs, data migration and system outages in physical storage. The cloud can be made suitable for the use of any number of devices of any size.
