 Advantages and disadvantages

Advantages

• High Speed: Cloud computing lets you deploy the service quickly in fewer clicks. This quick deployment lets you get the resources required for your system within fewer minutes.
•  Excellent accessibility: Storing the information in cloud allows you to access it anywhere, anytime regardless of the machine making it highly accessible and flexible technology of present times.
•  Back-up and restore data: Once the data is stored in Cloud, it is easier to get the back-up and recovery of that, which is quite a time taking process on-premise

 Disadvantages

• Security issues – At time storing data in the cloud may pose a serious challenge of information theft in front of the company. Though advanced security measures are deployed on the cloud, still storing confidential data in the cloud can be a risky affair.
• Low bandwidth – At times the bandwidth is low as many users are accessing the cloud at the same time which causes its bandwidth to go down. With less speed, the benefits of cloud computing cannot be realized.
• Flexibility issues – The cloud services run on remote servers which make it hard for the companies to have control over software and hardware. The services at times do not run the way it should.
• Incompatibility – Since entire infrastructure gets virtualized, incompatibility issues may arise at times that may pose serious challenges on the way of smooth running of services.
