File Hosting
What is file hosting?
File hosting houses the data that powers offices, applications and websites. Highly accessible and online, it enables users to upload media to the cloud and access it from any computer, tablet, smartphone or other internet-connected device. Once secure authentication is provided, it can also be accessed by other users if needed.
Hosted files occur in many different formats, and usually include a large number of small files featuring static content. Indeed, some users store their entire lives online – including creative work, photos, and documents). As such, successful file hosting is about effectively managing large and increasing data quantities.
