A Content Management System (CMS) is
a computer software that allows you to
publish, edit and manipulate, organize
and delete web content. It could be
online or browser-based.
CMS is used in blogs, vlogs, news websites, and
online shopping sites.

Did you know?
 CLOUD COMPUTING
In the simplest terms, cloud
computing means accessing,
storing, managing and processing
data and programs over the Internet
rather than local server or personal
computer.
 CLOUD COMPUTING
Cloud computing applications
are those that do not need any
installation and are readily available
over the internet. You just need an
internet connection to access it.
 Cloud Computing
It is also a general term used to
describe anything that involves
delivering hosted services over the
internet.
The cloud is just a metaphor for the
Internet.
 Cloud Computing
•When you created Infographics, you used
Canva and its infographic editor used cloud
computing.
•The same goes for making your own blog
or website, we are using WordPress.
•We need not to install any software in our
computer. The software is in the “cloud” or
over the internet (cloud-based).
 Cloud Computing
(+) ADVANTAGES

1.No need to install

2.Saves hard disk space
3.Easy to use; can be ran
anywhere as long as there is
internet connection
 Cloud Computing
(+) ADVANTAGES

4. Saves you money from buying

software licenses and additional
hard disk space
5. Minimum system requirements
 Cloud Computing
(+) ADVANTAGES

6. No need to update because it

updates automatically
7. Back up and data recovery are
relatively easier than on a
physical device.
 Cloud Computing
(-) DISADVANTAGES

1.Can be hampered down by slow

internet speed; no connection
means no cloud computing
2.May still require compatible
software like a browser.
 Cloud Computing
(-) DISADVANTAGES

3. You do not own the software;

you are simply renting it.
4. Security risk of doing things
over the internet as opposed to
your personal computer alone.
 Cloud Computing
(-) DISADVANTAGES

5. More prone to hacking.

6. Limited control over the
infrastructure itself.
