We have all heard and read about the ubiquitous Internet “cloud.” But what exactly is the cloud? And what specifically does that mean for e-discovery?
The cloud is really nothing more than computer space that is accessed via the Internet.

This storage is then available from anywhere the user can access the Internet.
