Edit: Oops. Forgot this will include video too. I'm assuming that if the video content wasn't obtained through the iTS then it will be denied entrance into Apple's cloud. | |

This supposedly will only allow "certain" MP3's to be uploaded. No one can determine what the requirements to meet the "certain" criteria are as of yet however. | |

Billings, MT | Problems? So, if a problem arises in the cloud, are they going to deny that there is a problem?
Also, if it crashes, are they going to deny it crashed and say "We're installing new features so it may be unavailable. Please return later when we have the new features implemented."
Probably why they killed off their server line. Why own your server when you can trust us with your data.
Truthfully, I don't trust any cloud-based service with my data. Sure, I trust it for an encrypted backup, and that's it. If you trust your enterprise data on a cloud from another company, you're an idiot.

kudos:1 | Re: Problems? There are situations where it makes sense and it can be a very cost effective option for a business. As with anything, it depends on the business level outcome you desire, the backup and scalability plans in place, and the SLA's required for each of the business applications.

| Indeed. The only way I would trust ANY cloud based service is if I encrypt the data myself PRIOR to uploading it to "the cloud".
With all the recent break-ins and leaks that have occurred to companies large and small, I just would not trust a cloud service with unencrypted data (or using the service's built-in encryption).
As for streaming my music collection to myself while away from home - my home server does that just fine. | |

kudos:1 | Theres no point in running a LAMP site on OSX, you dont have the net connection locally to do it anyways (non-DSL, non-cable, SLAed fiber). OSX Server doesn't offer any killer built in applications, and OSX isnt bound to only talking to OSX Servers out of the box, a la Windows with Exchange and Active Directory. | |

No. I prefer Gentoo, Ubuntu, or (if I have to) Windows Server 2008.

People that take this attitude humor me. It's like the people that say 'I never share information online'. HELLO, if you've ever used a credit/debit card or paid a bill online, your information is online. If you've ever bought a car, house, etc. i can pull enough information about you to steal your identity.
The 'cloud' has it's place. I for one like the idea of storying my music so it can be accessed from anywhere and any device. Doesn't cost me a damn thing either. | |
