Description
Have you heard the term “the Cloud” or the phrase “Store it in the cloud”. Of course you have whether it was on a television commercial or something you viewed on the internet. If you haven’t, don’t worry about it, I will explain it all to you throughout this course. The “cloud” has become a very popular application that you should get familiar with. You never know when you may need it. You will learn about the various types of cloud storage. I go over three of them in this course. I will discuss with you how to download one of these cloud storage apps on your computer and set it up. There are three small project assignments that I have included that will also help you learn to do this as well. I will touch on the cost of cloud storage and what we use cloud storage apps for. I will also briefly discuss the security of cloud storage as well as the advantages and disadvantages.I have also included a few quizzes to help you and I both see how much you have learned from this course.
Throughout this course I will be using a Mac, but you can use a Mac or a PC.
Over the next few months I will be adding more material and projects to this course. A few things to look forward to are a few lectures about CrashPlan and BigStash (beta). If you have any suggestions of anything more that I could add, please feel free to let me know.
