Detailed explanation-1: -Storing archived data in the cloud can be cost-effective when compared with storing and maintaining large amounts of nonessential data in-house. Using the cloud alleviates the need for buying and upgrading on-premises disk or tape hardware systems and archiving software to manage and store nonprimary data.
