Expert Opinion: What Is Cloud | Journey To The Cloud Audio Series (Part 1)

Geni Whitehouse is a CPA, Keynote Presenter, Author and co-founder of bookkeeping biz, and a part-time winery consultant. In the first part of the audio series, she discussed what cloud is and its essential aspects. Here, in the second part, she explains the three types of cloud, i.e., Software as a Service, Platform as a Service, and Infrastructure as a Service briefly. 

Most of the accounting applications that businesses use are not available in the cloud. The vast feature set of the tax software, practice management software, and accounting software is not accessible unless accessed from the desktop. 

According to Geni, to overcome the problem and bring all the desktop-based applications to the cloud, Infrastructure as a Service is one of the best solutions. With this type of cloud, you can deploy your desktop applications in a secured protected environment and get the best of both the worlds.
