Saved with files in huge data centers, users will be able to get information on their smartphones, tablet PCs, laptops and virtually any other device connected to the Internet. Can
content more easily with friends, family and colleagues by shared links to information, rather than e-mail to large systems. Google offers units in the first five gigabytes per account for free. Additional memory will be at prices starting at $ US2.49 per month for 25 gigabytes to $ US49.99 per month for a terabyte, equivalent to five laptops sold with hard drives of 200 gigabytes. The service is primarily for installation on computers with Windows, Mac computers, portable computers running the operating system from Google Chrome and Android smart phone software support available from Google. A version compatible with Apple’s hot-selling iPhone and iPad is in the coming weeks.
It may take several weeks for Google to drive in the world .
offer online storage is part of a technological shift away from storing personal files on a single machine in a home or office and give them the calculation hub accessed virtually anytime, anywhere access to the Internet. The concept has become popularly known as “cloud computing”.
For all its technological know-how, Google is a late arrival in what is created in the Internet version of the wars of the storage. Other advantages are the two fighters, with more emphasis technologies, Apple and Microsoft, and pioneering start-ups such as Dropbox and Box. Google hopes to further differentiate the storage service by making it more convenient and powerful tools. Google drive uses its expertise in the field of Internet technology for text and images easier to find data quickly. It also includes optical character recognition, which can search for specific words in the digitized newspapers or other sources included. Google in Mountain View, Calif., is en tering the fight in the first five years after word leaked that the company is developing an online file storage, then called Gdrive. It was never realized. In a blog post Tuesday, mocked as long as Google itself, the announcement of Google’s drive compared to the sighting of the monster of Loch Ness. But Google still has a lot of time and, above all, a lot of fire power to reduce competition, said Gartner analyst Michael Gartenberg. “This puts Google in the heart of the battle,” he said. “We will take as a personal computer, Google needs to stay relevant in the age in which the cloud people may be more important a service like this.” is the second foray by Google into the online storage. Following the example of Apple, Google, opened in November last year, a music store that contains the space free for up to 20,000 songs for each user. Google Drive is less than five years, Dropbox, which has emerged as a l eader in the early online store, attracts over 50 million users, that collectively synchronize files over 1 billion every two days. Dropbox, which is based in San Francisco, offers two gigabytes of free storage to less than half the amount of Google-drive available – 100GB and sells for $ US20 or $ US200 per Month.
Google Drive, however, is only $ US5 per month or $ US60 per year for 100 gigabytes of memory to load.
icloud service from Apple that is designed for owners of mobile devices and computer company, also offers five gigabytes of free storage and charging $ US100 each year for 50 gigabytes of memory. Microsoft SkyDrive provides seven gigabytes to 25 gigabytes of free storage space, depending on when you entered the service. In a move that would drive by Google to go, Microsoft announced on Monday that SkyDrive is 100 gigabytes of storage for $ US50 per year for sale. Dropbox indicated that he counted on his constant attention to online storage to protect against Google, which has diversified from a search on the Internet via e-mail, photo sharing, social networking, online video and smartphones. “Companies of all sizes and shapes have thrown their hats in the last few years, but we were later to build the best possible experience and make a prod uct that millions of people love,” he said in a statement drop box. Dropbox in 2007 by two graduates of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, initiated, supported by $ US257 million in venture capital. Google ended March with more than $ US49 billion in the bank. But Google’s deep pockets were not always sufficient for the company, the initial advantage of the small businesses that overcome carved new niches on the Internet. For example, Google has been unable to overcome an online social network Facebook, to build, despite years of trying. still trying to mount the most serious challenges to the review site Yelp on-line and on-line service Groupon coupons. except the money, Google also has the advantage of being able in front of the storage service to more than 1 billion people who already hang with its Internet search engine or other popular products such as Gmail, to its video Web site YouTube, Google Docs suite of online software, s ocial networking service Google Plus and smart phones with the Android operating system on. All these services are required to entrust users with Google their valuable personal and intimate details about their lives. If Google starts hard, the company has a great guardian of sensitive data will become. Privacy watchdogs fear Google already knows too much, but Mr. Gartenberg doubts that such concerns to undermine Google’s drive. “A lot of people already trusted by Google,” he said. “If you’re already using Google services, you probably use Google Drive, too.” AP
