Cloud computing and business continuity
How the cloud impacts company growth?
Cloud computing is one of the most important and helpful tools for entrepreneurs who want to accelerate the company growth. With the cloud companies are able to innovate faster and easier, increase flexibility, improve the scalability of the environments and optimize IT costs.
Moreover, Gartner predicts that by 2025, 85 percent of organizations will adopt a cloud-based strategy. This, in turn, brings significant changes to the entire industry – the cloud will soon cease to be an option and become a necessity.
Key strategy for data security and business continuity
Currently, almost every organization, regardless of the size or sector, uses some form of software or IT systems. However, not every business has the resources necessary for securely store, manage and analyze large amounts of data. In this case, migration to the cloud becomes the solution.

Cloud solutions and security systems made the crisis period related to COVID-19 easier for us to navigate compared to our partners, who didn’t implement such processes – says Joanna Szyman, CEO in Neo Hospital.
Security in the cloud – it is worth trusting external provider
One of the main reasons why cloud computing is gaining more and more popularity is the high level of security. Storing data in traditional ways carries the risk of loss and theft of sensitive information, which may have serious consequences for the business. External cloud service providers undergo regular audits to ensure the protection of processed resources and maintain constant control over them. Additionally, Disaster Recovery solutions allow for swift business recovery in case of unpredictable events, minimizing potential losses.
