Cloud vs Flash

The current publicity around cloud computing suggests that future data will be stored exclusively on the Internet . Applications such as online storage, online backup and office software online, Google Docs or MS Office Live Workspace make this future tangible.

However, until the full access to the Internet for broadband is available, access to files and programs stored in the cloud "is not possible in real time for many users, so the storage solutions in the cloud only are suitable for data that does not need to access quickly. At home and in small businesses, the trend remains: storing data locally on hard drives or servers, and only if necessary, use online solutions.
