What is Cloud Computing and How it works?

Cloud Computing:

Storing and Accessing Data over the Internet instead of your computer’s hard drive is called as Cloud Computing.



Simply put, cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence over the Internet (“the cloud”) to offer faster innovation, flexible resources, and economies of scale. You typically pay only for cloud services you use, helping lower your operating costs, run your infrastructure more efficiently and scale as your business needs change.

 

Cloud Vs Cloud Computing:

Cloud is simply storing data and files on a virtual server over internet

Cloud computing is running applications through a virtual desktop over a secure internet connection.

 

Reasons to move into the Cloud?

Ø  It doesn't need any effort on your part to maintain or manage it.

Ø  It's effectively infinite in size, so you don't need to worry about it running out of capacity.

Ø  You can access cloud-based applications and services from anywhere – all you need is a device with an Internet connection.

 

Benefits of Cloud Computing:

1.      Faster Implementation

If you've ever been involved in the implementation of a new application you'll know it can take months or even years to get it up and running. But with a cloud-based application you can cut through this complexity. In many cases you can sign up and start using the application instantly and even the most wide-ranging enterprise applications are usually up and running in a matter of days or weeks rather than months or years.

 2.      No Up Front Costs

Implementing a new application used to mean considerable capital expenditure in new equipment – not to mention the cost of licenses, integration and the inevitable consultants – but with cloud software these capital expenditure costs are dramatically reduced or even completely eliminated. Instead you simply pay a monthly fee, transforming a significant capital expenditure into predictable operational expense.

 3.      Instant Scalability

With cloud-based applications you can increase or decrease the number of users as your needs change over time. That means you pay only for what you need, and you never have to worry about running out of capacity.

 4.      Maintenance Free

Patching, upgrading and testing applications can take up days of your IT staff's time every month, but with cloud applications none of this is necessary. That’s because it's all handled in the cloud, leaving your staff with more time to work on new projects and innovations.

 5.      Access Anywhere

Cloud applications are designed to be accessed securely from anywhere and from any device.

 6.      Better Security

Companies lose an average of 263 laptops a year, a 2010 study found, and if they contain confidential data then each loss has serious security implications. But with cloud applications your data is stored securely in the cloud, so a stray laptop is just an inconvenience, not a potential disaster.

Disable Document Download in Salesforce

Disable downloads for certain users based on the name of the file uploaded to Salesforce. We can use the following example code inside of a Apex class. This code essentially prevents files whose file name starts off with Kaipu- from being downloaded by anyone whose user role’s developer name is not Kaipu_Sales. Modify this code to suit your own purpose. Based on Role: public class ContentDownloadHandlerFactoryImpl implements Sfc.ContentDownloadHandlerFactory {    public Sfc.ContentDownloadHandler getContentDownloadHandler(List<ID> ids, Sfc.ContentDownloadContext context) {      // See if the user has the Kaipu Sales role (based on developer name field).      Boolean isSecretUser = [        SELECT Id        FROM UserRole        WHERE ID = :UserInfo.getUserRoleId()          AND DeveloperName = ' Kaip...
