6. Cloud storage is a cloud computing model in which data is stored on remote servers accessed from the internet, or "cloud." It is maintained, operated and managed by a cloud storage service provider on storage servers that are built on virtualization techniques.

  

   Cloud storage works through data center virtualization, providing end users and applications with a virtual storage architecture that is scalable according to application requirements. In general, cloud storage operates through a web-based API that is remotely implemented through its interaction with the client application's in-house cloud storage infrastructure for input/output    (I/O) and read/write (R/W) operations.

   Three cloud storage services:

7. OneDrive is a cloud storage service from Microsoft that allows you to store all your important files securely in one place and then access them virtually anywhere.

Pros and Cons of OneDrive:

Free storage: OneDrive offers users 15GB of free storage space as well as the chance to earn extra free storage space. Microsoft has introduced a referral incentive where users gain extra storage for every friend that signs up for an account through them. Additional storage is also offered if users link OneDrive to their mobile phone’s camera so that it automatically backs up their photos online.

Easy organisation: You can store any kind of file on OneDrive be it photos, video, and documents, and then access them from any of your Windows PCs or mobile devices. Files are organised by type, so it’s easy to find what you need.

Close collaboration with Office: As a Microsoft platform, OneDrive works closely with Microsoft Office apps, such as Word or PowerPoint – when you launch one of these applications you’ll see a list of recent documents, including those saved to OneDrive. If you have an Office 365 subscription and open a document saved in OneDrive, you can collaborate with it in real-time with other people.

Social networks: On the web version, leading social networks can be linked to your OneDrive account. This allows the sharing of files with colleagues and permissions can be set for each user from read-only to complete access to editing documents.

Document management: OneDrive works well for the individual but is limiting when it some to sharing files will colleagues, and clients/suppliers too. This also limits its effectiveness as a project management tool. Microsoft Sharepoint is a much better option when it comes to supporting collaboration.

Privacy concerns: Some users have cited concerns over privacy because Microsoft has reserved the right to scan files saved in OneDrive to look for what it calls ‘objectionable content’, such as copyrighted material or explicit images. Apple has a similar policy for its cloud service Apple iCloud – but the fact remains file security cannot be guaranteed if it is deemed objectionable.

User error: Microsoft Windows remains the number one targeted platform for hackers and while OneDrive has remained fairly free of any serious breaches, users must follow standard security procedures. To ensure security users must use strong passwords and ensure they have chosen the right file sharing permissions.

Encryption: Users of the standard OneDrive service will find that data is encrypted in transit using SSL but it will remain unencrypted at rest. However, OneDrive for Business incorporates per-file encryption which encrypts files individually each with a unique key; so if it is compromised only one individual file would be accessed rather than the whole store.

Syncing: There are also suggestions that some files can get altered when they are synced or uploaded to OneDrive but it is unclear how common this problem is.

How to create a OneDrive account

You're required to use a Microsoft Account to use OneDrive. If you already have a @outlook.com, @hotmail.com, or @live.com*email address, or an Xbox Live or Skype account, you already have a Microsoft account, and you can use that info to sign in.

If you don't have a Microsoft account, do the following:

1.      Visit OneDrive.com using your web browser.

2.      Click the Sign up for free button.

3.      Click the Create a Microsoft account button.

4.      Create a new email address and password for the new account.

5.      Click the Next button.

6.      Continue through any additional on-screen instructions.

Once you completed these steps, you can start using OneDrive and connect your account to Windows 10.
