Windows 365 is the new hybrid personal cloud computing

“The release of Windows 365 is only the beginning. As the boundary between installation and cloud becomes more and more blurred, infinite possibilities will be created in the future.”

Windows 365 assists employees with challenges that persisted before the pandemic. For example, employees want greater spiritual activity at work, choosing to work off site while keeping organizational data safe. Seasonal workers can join or leave teams with more spirit without having to face complex logistical processes, including requesting new units from businesses or encrypting personal devices while on the job. At the same time, organizations can scale their business more efficiently and securely, even during busy times. Businesses can also more easily assign greater computing power to employees working in creativity, analysis, engineering or scientific research, and set up secure access permissions for related applications.

Windows 365 revolutionized: Powerful, simple, and well-equipped. However, it is worth mentioning that the business users that Microsoft refers to, even if they are operated by one person, are not a single large enterprise customer.

So how is Windows 365 different from previous cloud computers?

In addition to running across devices, it will create a new category of hybrid personal computing called Cloud PC. It provides a complete, personalized system experience based on the cloud system and the actual capabilities of your device. In this way, you will be familiar with it every time you turn on the cloud computer.

The apps, data and settings you use on your cloud PC can also be sent from the cloud to your desired device. In terms of security, all your data in the system will be stored in the cloud, not in the device. In addition, depending on the usage environment, cloud computing may be interrupted. With Cloud PC, users can log in on a variety of devices and pick up where they left off, delivering a simple and familiar Windows experience from the cloud.

In terms of configuration, Microsoft provides 1, 2, 4, and 8-core CPUs, with memory ranging from 2GB to 32GB, and 64GB-512GB of storage space.

If you have special configuration needs, Microsoft also offers enterprise and business editions. One thing though is that while Windows 365 has the option of Windows 10 or 11, the latter will only work as normal until later.

The use of cloud computers still has certain requirements for the network, so it may be the most suitable for use in a corporate environment or a wireless network environment.

Since the Internet entered the fiber era, people have never stopped thinking about the cloud era. In recent years, heavy cloud applications based on the Internet have indeed appeared, such as cloud office and cloud games. However, when a blockbuster product like Windows finally went to the cloud, many people finally realized that this may be an important sign of the beginning of the cloud era.

In general, the emergence of Windows 365 cloud computers means that the Windows-level system platform has also entered the cloud era. With the advancement of the Internet, more and more traditional applications will be combined with the network to generate new products. Looking forward to more exciting cloud services in the future…

Windows 11. Microsoft announced this at an online event on June 24th, 2021, and it’s the successor to Windows 10. It’s a brand-new operating system, and it comes with a lot of changes, a lot of the visual. For example, there’s a brand-new Start menu that no longer uses Live Tiles. Plus, that Start menu is now in the centre of the screen by default (though you can move it back to the left corner). There are rounded corners for basically every app, the File Explorer has a revamped UI, and much more.

Choosing between Windows 11 and Windows 365 is entirely based on your needs, and for most people, Microsoft makes that decision for you. Windows 365 is a service for businesses, not general consumers. The person going into the store to buy a PC is just going to get Windows 11, and that’s the end of it. You can’t just sign up for Windows 365 as an individual, either. There will be two tiers of Windows 365 – Business and Enterprise – meant for companies of different sizes, but none for personal use.

  • Flexible Subscriptions—Billing monthly or yearly, offering packages with different levels of service
  • Scalability—billing by the user, so you never pay for licenses you’re not using
  • Admin panel—makes it easy for you to track usage, billing, and user administration
  • Updates and Security Patches included—and done automatically in the cloud.
  • Reduced Hardware investments—Cloud PC companies don’t have to worry about upgrading hardware to match operating system requirements. Nearly any computer will run Cloud PC without issue, allowing you to hold onto your hardware for up to 30 percent longer.
  • Transparency—Because all your documents are shareable, networked, and available from anywhere.
  • Improved Communications—multi-device access makes it easy to access your co-workers whenever it’s convenient.

The answer is yes. The fact is, Windows is the world’s dominant platform for a reason. It offers flexibility, transparency, and now, the ability to sign in from anywhere securely. The business world has only just begun to tap into the productivity building potential of this office platform. With the pandemic introducing so much uncertainty over whether we’ll be working in person or remotely, tools like Windows can be the lynchpin that ties your remote team together.
