4. Network Dependency
Cloud computing is dependent on the internet.
The most basic drawback of cloud computing is that
you need internet connection to access the cloud and
this direct tie to the internet means that this system is
prone to outages and service interruptions at any time.
This could occur in the middle of a task or transaction,
meaning the action could be delayed or lost entirely if
time sensitive.
5. Security & Privacy
There is already a huge risk with data hosted in-house, so
it’s no secret that data offsite sits at even higher risk. With Data
offsite, more avenues for attack and the fact that it will be
traveling more makes it easier to be intercepted. With
technology always improving, there are ways to make sure
of better encryption. However with technology always
improving, there are always people out there improving their
hacking skills.
6. Cost of Bandwidth
We are switching to the cloud computing to reduce our
cost but we spend more money in cloud computing. Look at
the scenario , we are switching to the cloud computing, we will
pay to the Cloud Provider and we will also pay to Internet
Service Provider (ISP). As we need high speed internet
connection So , we have to pay more for High Bandwidth to
ISP.
7. Trust on Cloud Provider
We have to trust on the internet provider. Our data is very
important. We going to give out data to the third person. We
should think about it. Is the person we are going to trust is the
trustable. Is the Cloud Provider is not our competitive from any
side. Cloud provider has the administrative rights to do
anything.
8. Limited Control
We can perform limited operations to our files. Clint has
the limited control to the application. The Cloud Provider can
delete or update any application but we have not the ability to
delete or update the application. We just have to use the
provided version of the software. If we have our system on
desktop we can easily update our software or change the
software.
9. Centralization
Organizations usually outsource data and
application services to a centralized provider. In cloud
computing, we know that network dependency is a
drawback due to outages. Centralized data can
certainly add another risk to cloud computing: If the
provider’s service goes down, all clients are affected.
