Abstract

Cloud computing (CC) is the delivery of computing services, such as servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence, over the Internet. It is no longer a business trend. It is a new reality in the global market. The power of cloud computing lies in the fact that it is available anywhere, in any size or configuration, and can be easily reconfigured when needed. Using this kind of decentralized system offers flexibility, scalability, and accessibility for architectural teams all around the globe. Cloud computing is emerging as the cornerstone of a new era in architecture; it transcends conventional boundaries and unleashes unparalleled possibilities in the field. It can synchronize architectural projects from concept to construction. Migrating to the cloud enables architects to store, manage, and process their data online. This paper explores ways cloud computing helps organizations in the architecture industry become more efficient, sustainable, and innovative.
