Discussion Unit 7: Using the Cloud
We all use the cloud throughout our day to day life, but often we aren't aware of it. From phone apps, Google Docs, OneDrive, streaming services, and so on, Cloud technology is a big part of our life. For your original post this week, discuss one way you use the cloud currently, and a way you would like to use it in the future.
I actually love using cloud based services one way that I've really made use of it in the past was with google docs and google drive. I used to run a game server and when google drive got created we would upload client files for our beta testers and patches before finalizing the product. I still to this day have a lot of files uploaded on google drive which I was using at the time. Sometimes I also use it to send files and things to friends as well such as when we play Minecraft and one of us host's the save file needs to be downloaded by each person so using google drive for it is really quick. At work we no longer have hard drive space on the server instead Microsoft OneDrive provides our cloud based storage and I use that for Safety team information and stuff that has no SSI (Sensitive Security Information) information. As for future use I don't think I can really utilize it anymore then I currently am. I don't like backing up my phone using it because if the data ever gets hijacked like we see with cloud servers there's personal and financial information which I wouldn't feel comfy being up on the internet.
