As we move from learning about the theory of cloud computing into practical applications, we begin to see this technology’s impact on recurring monthly revenue and the huge growth opportunity the cloud brings to security providers.
As an editor in the security business, I can honestly admit that I have read way too many articles about “the cloud.” Most of the articles were theoretical, but many were so obscure that even I couldn’t see a connection between cloud technology and physical security. But, alas, we all know that we need to keep on reading, watching, and asking questions because there is absolutely no doubt that cloud technology will be a huge part of our industry in the coming years.
