CHAPTER 1 : INTRODUCTION 1.1 Introduction Personal cloud storage (PCS) is an a web service of online that provides server space for individuals to store others files, data, video and photos. It is a content of digital sources and services which are accessible from any device. The personal cloud is not a tangible entity. It is a place which gives users the ability to store, synchronize, stream and share content on a relative core, moving from one platform, screen and location to another. Created on connected services and applications, it reflects and sets consumer expectation for how next-generation computing services will work. There are four primary types of personal cloud that has been used today like Online cloud, NAS device cloud, server device cloud, and home-made clouds.

Personal clouds give user far greater control over the data. As the steward of own storage, user decide who has access to their own data and who doesn’t, and user don’t have to worry about the storage provider collecting information about their activities. Hackers tend to cast wide nets by targeting large datacenter, which makes small personal cloud far less vulnerable to external threats. As the user owned and controlled by itself, it can give the user to build their own personal cloud storage based on their requirement use without any third party charge. It can give us more benefit in term of costing and security and privacy over the data. While user can add or customize their own interactive features for the cloud storage such as video and audio stream, comments activity, message board, chatting, VOIP or many other infrastructure as it was an open sources program. Personal cloud storage offers larger space of capacity storage to the user to keep data rather that the public cloud storage where the counterparts and scalability requirements are more
The idea of accessing, storing, and processing data from online server or virtual server instead of local server is called as Cloud computing. When we store data in our hard disk which is very near to computer that is called as local storage and computing but Cloud computing doesn’t access data from our hard disk.
Virtualization is a technology that creates an abstract version of a complete operating environment including a processor, memory, storage, network links, and a display entirely in software. Because the resulting runtime environment is completely software based, the software produces what’s called a virtual computer or a virtual machine (M.O., 2012). To simplify, virtualization is the process of running multiple virtual machines on a single physical machine. The virtual machines share the resources of one physical computer, and each virtual machine is its own environment.
Cloud is the result of a decade research in the field of distributing computing , utility computing, virtualization , grid computing and more recently software, network services and web technology which is changeable evolution on demanding technology and services also as looking to the rapid growth of cloud computing which have changed the global computing infrastructure as well as the concept of computing resources toward cloud infrastructure. The important and interest of cloud computing increasing day by day and this technology receives more and more attention in the world (Jain, 2014) the mostly widely used definition of cloud computing is introduced by NIST “as a model for enabling a convenient on demand network access
The twenty first century in the century of technology, where technology is heavily used in the people daily lives. One of the field where technology is being utilized in is monitoring people through cameras and phone calls. Although it might be interfering with people privacy, but it has its advantages that might outweigh the disadvantages. This essay will discuss both points of view, and try to decide which one is more reasonable than the other.
The EHR system that Torrance Memorial Medical Center in Torrance, CA uses is Cerner EHR system.
The cloud storage services are important as it provides a lot of benefits to the healthcare industry. The healthcare data is often doubling each and every year and consequently this means that the industry has to invest in hardware equipment tweak databases as well as servers that are required to store large amounts of data (Blobel, 19). It is imperative to understand that with a properly implemented a cloud storage system, and hospitals can be able to establish a network that can process tasks quickly with...
In UK the same as in the USA there many controversies concerning breaking into personal space of people as it violates their privacy. Those laws that permit searching on personal computers are perceived differently among people. Dave Neal (2015) points out in his article that government has enough power to carry out surveillance by hacking into personal computers, phones, and social networks. Those actions are of a great importance for searching for potential criminals in order to prevent them from committing crimes. Moreover, the Government Communication Headquarter has all the rights to break into any personal computer in the world. The author states that those powers are disturbing of personal privacy and is similar to entering a house without permission. It is mentioned in the text that the government did those things illegally while
One of the many purposes of EHR is to connect doctors to their patients with the information contained in the patient profile. The data, if concise and makes sense, will assist the health care provider, primarily doctors, in giving quality care to the patient (Sinsky, 2014). It adds value for the patient because it minimizes paper work and repetition of information. Also, in the case of an emergency the patient’s information is readily accessible and available to the treating health care workers. This can save much needed time in life-threatening medical situations. Unnecessary, or duplication of treatments, or medications, can be avoided
The World Wide Web can be considered as a system with huge distributed information which provides access to shared data objects. In recent past years there have been exponential growth in size of WWW, which causes network congestion. There are discrete natures World Wide Web documents with the help of which everyone can find information according to their liking. But, this huge rate of growth has put a heavy load on the Internet communication channels
Today much focus is being placed on the ability of organizations (private, and public) to increase their productivity, and quality of service. As a result it is necessary to improve the well being of employees, decrease unnecessary costs, and enhance the competitiveness of the organization. Given this, it is no accident that telecommuting, is one of the largest growing areas, in flexible alternative work schedules. The influence of globalization over all aspects, of many economies, also increases the effectiveness of telecommuting. Now, more than ever, many employees are taking advantage of completing their work in an alternative work environment. Advantages can be tangible, such as reduction in office space, or intangible, such as improved family life. Employee advantages include freedom, decreased clothing expenses, and increased moral. Employers also benefit from telecommuting. Reduced absenteeism, and reduced financial cost, are only two reasons why an employer should consider implementing a telecommuting program. There are also environmental advantages to acknowledge, with regards to telecommuting, such as the reduction of traffic, and thereby the reduction of pollution.
Several types of cloud storage systems have been developed to supporting both personal and business uses. Cloud storage also a model of networked enterprise storage where the data is stored not only in the user's computer, but also in virtualized of storage, which generally hosted by third parties company.
When they wanted to save photos online instead of on your personal computer, they are able to use “cloud computing” service. Cloud computing means that the transfer of computing data or information over the internet. Not just to keep data in your personal computer, they are able to save the data on internet server to open their data in any computer. In this report we will walk through about what is cloud computing, what kinds of model did cloud computing have, types of cloud computing, benefits of cloud computing, and security.
In Nigeria today, scholarships are becoming a great way to get free money for university degree. But most of the time, students appear to have a little knowledge about how they can get the scholarship. Students believe scholarships can only be given to meritorious students. Internet has proved to be a great source of finding a variety of scholarships. There are scholarships for all kinds of student. Finding scholarships on the Internet requires some tips and suggestions, so that students or parents do not turn out to be a victim of scholarship scams.
. The company lacked working synergy, as workers did not know one another. As a result, Meyer was looking forward to promote synergy in the organization and make workers feel part of the organization. The company had various idle infrastructures. As a result, Mayer saw the opportunity to bring workers together as a means of doing away with laziness, and utilizing idle infrastructure (Carlson 2).
Who is superior- public sector or private sector? This has been an eternal debate. It has gained more prominence after the wave of privatizations since early 1980s, in which the central motive was ideological rather than financial efficiency (Cook & Kirkpatrick, 1988). Privatization, therefore, has its roots deeply entrenched in the ideological foundations of the neo-right that perceives market as consistently and wholly benign (Martin, 1993), and finds the private sector integrally superior to the public sector.
