Cloud services for data transferring and retaining has become much popular in the last few  years. For some, these are ineffective while for others they serve very well. The requirement, usage and choice of cloud operator are the essential factors to judge its efficiency. We  understand that having dedicated servers at your enterprise is far more suitable than having them over the cloud. However, what if you keep the cloud service as a backup source. In case you accidentally lose your current servers due to some unfortunate event, you can always get back and set your file database. Some  enterprises directly prefer to use the cloud servers as many commit to take care of file database regularly and efficiently. A large number of enterprises already had a good experience with them. Cloud based file system can also be automated like the local file systems and processes. Let’s discuss few cloud based file transfer protocols.

Enterprise to Cloud

There are three types of cloud server hosting that an enterprise can hire. These are hybrid, public and private cloud. As the name suggests, the private cloud transfers works within the enterprise and thus leads to faster file and data processing and low amount of downtime. Private clouds are also beneficial in protection against the threats since the server data does not coincide with the  public information. Secondly public clouds retains data quite sufficiently but may also require additional services like backing up files and file system regularly. These cloud systems can be easily integrated with the automation in order to handle multiple tasks like file backups, program upgrades, FTP management,etc.

Cloud To Cloud

These type of file transfers runs between the big enterprises like popular ecommerce platforms and social media websites. Cloud to cloud file transfer technology does not include any local file transfers and the performance depends on cloud pipe size. Many enterprises have even started using the cloud to cloud file automation so as to synchronize files and access from anywhere.

Mobile To Cloud

Since enterprises do not run on mobile technologies like smartphones, tablets and netbooks, very few applications are designed to enhance the cloud transfer experience. This may include one touch applications like note taking apps, instant file recording, photo uploading, basic programs and editing applications, etc. The data can be automated for synchronization and can be later accessed from other cloud connected devices.
