With the growth of the Internet and networking capabilities, the world is certainly starting to seem like a smaller place. Viruses and hackers seem to be everywhere, so it's understandable that business owners feel a little uneasy about utilizing cloud computing rather than handling things in-house. It's true that self-hosting can be secure, but just about the only time that it's a better choice than hosting on a major network is if you don't need the Internet and you don't need any real type of network that connects you to the outside world. Nowadays, this just isn't an option usually. Cloud computing generally gives you more uptime -- it's not perfect, but the system runs with almost 99.9 percent efficiency if you're working with a good service provider. If something goes wrong, you can be up and running again within minutes. Still, there are uncertainties about cloud computing. It's still important to know where your data and information is, what type of protection you have, and who all can have access to it. It is a legitimate concern to be worried about whether your data is protected, and that you meet the regulatory requirements and obligations. It's also important that the right and qualified people be able to access the data once it enters the server's firewall. In the end, the important thing is that you have a good and qualified provider for your service. It's important that the business owner or administrator decide which data specifically should go on the cloud server. Be especially careful about protecting information such as credit card numbers and other information that could still be hacked. Make sure that the information is encrypted well, and work closely with the service profession that the qualified hosting provider will give you. The good news is, despite the uncertainties that can come with the Internet and computers, HP has carefully studied the system and knows how to keep your information as safe as possible. You won't have to understand everything that goes on, or all the intricacies of how a cloud system works. It will also be much less of a hassle than self-hosting. HP's new G6 server can now offer almost twice as much capability as before. Keep in mind: the same company that has strived to offer a bigger and more efficient network that anyone else will also work hard to keep your company and information protected.About the Author:
