Drivers: Rising adoption of the cloud by small and medium-sized enterprises
For small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the industrial cloud provides a smarter and leaner technology option that helps to limit cost and increase productivity multiple times. In addition, the cloud offers many benefits to SMEs, such as reduced downtime, improved data security, CRM management, flexible storage, resource optimization, and remote computing. For instance, cloud technology helps increase the company's data security levels. Moreover, an additional advantage of this cloud technology is that the data is always backed-up.
Cloud storage offers convenience to employees
With the growing advancements and technological developments, businesses and the workforce are now becoming more mobile in nature. In companies, employees need to access and share files when working outside the office. And owing to the cloud-based storage facility, users can easily access the files wherever they are located.
Challenges: Lack of expertise or resources
One of the most critical challenges with the cloud is that companies currently face a risk of resource and expertise crunch. With the growing adoption trend of cloud technology, various companies are increasingly placing more workloads on the system. Cloud technology will continue to advance in the coming years rapidly. Because of these factors, companies face a tough time keeping up with the tools, and the need for expertise is also growing continuously. In addition, these challenges can be minimized by providing additional training to IT and development staff.
