Cloud computing is a great new method of accessing your applications and data from anywhere with an internet connection and of course on of the most important parts of Cloud Computing is storing files and making them accessible anywhere you may roam. The best cloud service currentl;y availible as far as i’m concerned is Amazon S3, S3 charges a very minor fee for a lot of storage space and makes it very affordable to make your data accessible anywhere over the web. S3 charges 15 cents per gigabyte every month which gives you a terrabyte of data only $153.60 per month and unlike hard drives and other storage methods cloud storage allows you to acess your data anywhere over the internet and eliminates the need to backup your data.  Cloud storage makes storing data both affordable and simple.

S3 allows everyone to be able to backup and store their data in the cloud without and excessive cost! S3 can be mounted as a network drive or there are also third-party serivces that allow users to do more with their service. Jungle Disk for example, lets users backup as many computers as they want to their S3 drive from unlimited computers. Jungle disk’s application costs $20 in addition the the cost of S3. Over all, S3 is a very efffective method of storing data online and not only that but, as long as you are willing to pay, you can buy as much storage as you want!
