The story of civilization is largely the story of communication, of how information has been passed from person to person, or group to group. From the development of complex verbal and then written language, to hand-printed and then press-printed books, to the telegraph and telephone, not forgetting pictures, photographs, and moving pictures, and finally radio and television, it all seems to be prologue for what is happening today. We still have language and books, telephones, radio, and television, but the fact is that the vast digital network we know as the Internet is becoming the dominant backbone of communication, and is gradually replacing all of the forms that have come before.
Today we routinely talk and message over the Internet, and use it to send and publish pictures and videos. Books, a form that has been around since the invention of papyrus, are now transmitted and displayed digitally. Telephone communication is increasingly VoIP or through services such as Skype. Radio and television is more and more likely to be Internet based, with some families doing the greatest part of their television viewing using services like Netflix. Even commercial theaters are now downloading and displaying movies and other content digitally.
A major part of this communication revolution is cloud technology, the ability to have data stored and processed remotely, greatly increasing the functionality of small mobile devices. By giving distant users instant access to enormous sets of centralized data and processing power, cloud technology gives the Internet a new dimension, opening a world of new possibilities.
GlobalWise Investments, through its Intellinetics subsidiary, is an example of the power of the cloud. The company provides advanced ECM (Enterprise Content Management) capabilities to both large and small organizations, solutions that allow controlled access to large volumes of documents from remote sites via mobile devices. Using their system, an authorized employee can instantly access and process huge stores of documents on a 24/7 basis from anywhere in the world.
