Cloud Computing

Imagine if there was a teleportation technology that was able to teleport students to classes? Imagine that. Anyway to a more realistic idea, imagine if like there was facial recognition technology installed in every hall. This idea might be somewhat out of the realm to others but I believe that if this existed it would make the lives of college students especially SU students easier. With the facial recognition technology students can have access to their halls easier, faster and more efficient rather than to wait in a long line for check-ins.

So for my entrepreneurship idea to work, facial recognition technology would need a large amount of storage capacity. If this technology was to be installed in every hall in syracuse,  it would require an enormous amount of storage capacity. With this many students students who attend this college every piece of information is needed to be tracked and kept safe.


Cloud computing seems to be the new technology companies and agencies have drawn to. With this new efficient technology and its affordable price, cloud computing is at a high demand.Cloud computing can store every piece of data retrieved from the facial recognition technology. If the facial recognition technology goes cloud, many would questions its security and safety.



I will admit that if facial recognition technology goes cloud, the security and safety of every individual’s information will not be a 100%. But that is the risk i would be willing to take if it goes cloud because with cloud computing, it would teach me how to use the facial recognition technology more efficiently. Instead of me spending so much money on hard disk and memory, I could save my information of over 14,000 students of Syracuse online. With cloud computing i could save overload charges such as data storage, software updates, management and other more.
