Thanks to the meteoric rise of the internet in the past ten years, the vast majority of us have some form of data that needs to be kept somewhere. A great deal of our data, such as documents or music, is still kept on our own personal hard-drives and it is our own responsibility to keep it safe. There is also, however, a large proportion of data that is stored elsewhere. This data could be emails, credit card information for shopping online, Facebook and Google data, or website content and data.
So where is all this data kept? The answer is in data centres. A growing number of people are choosing to utilise a cloud hosting provider for their data storage, keeping their music and files in the cloud so that they can access them from anywhere at any time. This data will also be kept in a form of data centre, known as a cloud data centre. With data centres becoming such an integral part of our online lives it can be important to be aware of how they protect your data from loss, unauthorised access or equipment failure.cloudinternetdata centrescloud hostingcolocationdatasecurityservershosting data protection
