Cloud computing demystified

The IT industry is famous for inventing new expressions and cloud computing is one of the latest. Reputedly first coined in early 2007, the cloud is just another word for the Internet and derives from the symbol that has long been used to denote the wider network. Wikipedia defines Cloud Computing as Internet-based development and use of computer technology. "The cloud is a metaphor for the Internet and is an abstraction for the complex infrastructure it conceals. It is a style of computing in which IT-related capabilities are provided “as a service”, allowing users to access technology-enabled services from the Internet ("in the cloud") without knowledge of, expertise with, or control over the technology infrastructure that supports them."

Software hosted online is particularly powerful for small businesses. You can focus on with what you do best - running your business rather than managing IT. Support and maintenance are handled by the hosting company, who ensures its technologies are up-to-date for your benefit. The cost structure of a hosted solution means even a one man band can take advantage of the same enterprise applications which was traditionally made exclusive for larger counterparts, offering you a much more levelled playing field. If you are looking for growth, flexibility, collaboration or just more predictable cash flow, a hosted solution is almost certainly there to meet your needs - the future is hosted.
