SMB Cloud Projects You Should Consider

Paul Mah suggests cloud computing projects SMBs should consider adopting, including hosting applications in the cloud and online backup and storage, and gives suggestions on how to find cloud service partners.

"As part of my continuing series on IT Projects that SMBs should adopt, I've touched on topics ranging from how businesses might want to re-examine and enhance their backup regime as well as how they can improve their security posture pertaining to their computers. As we move into this, the third, week, I'm looking at how the cloud can be harnessed to help SMBs attain greater reliability.

There is no doubt that the cloud is a misunderstood facet of computing, no thanks to its overuse as a marketing byword in everything remotely related to the Internet. This has generated much confusion about exactly what the cloud entails, which necessitates that we broadly examine some of the key facets of the cloud in order to better understand what it can do for businesses."
