The Benefits of Cloud Computing for Cameroonian Creators | Read More

In an environment where access to software, storage, and security updates can be a challenge, cloud computing offers Cameroonian creators an invaluable tool to increase efficiency and improve collaboration.

What’s more? These services, on the whole, are cheaper and time-saving as they operate on a pay-as-you-go basis, with consumers benefiting from the providers’ ability to maximize economies of scale. Many Cameroonians still fear the cloud for a few reasons. There isn’t enough education about the benefits, added to the fear that their information could easily be hacked. There are also issues related to paying for these services and storing their data locally on a computer. Some users worry about Internet speed and reliable access.

Everyone who uses the Internet already uses some form of cloud storage and management in services like email, social media, and file-sharing sites. Those that provide limitless file storage and management are no different. Studies show that cloud storage is more secure, cost-effective, and flexible. Having your files in the cloud also means you don’t lose your hard work if your computer breaks down, as they’re readily available on any other device. For those who worry about Internet speed, once your file is up, all you need is a link you can share even via text message. Added to that are the benefits of analytics, which can help creators understand how their fellow collaborators or customers interact with their files and products. Operating on the cloud makes you worry less about disc space when you can run applications from remote servers with limitless capacity.

Whether you’re freelance writer, a business owner, songwriter, or trader, the conversation doesn’t stop around your project when you collaborate on the cloud with all your information and interactions about a project on one instantly available space. This can lead to better service delivery and better products.

Here are some services that will help you get started: Amazon Web Services, Mircosoft Azure, Google Cloud, IBM Cloud, Oracle Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, and Salesforce. Some of these services offer free plans to start.
