In business automation
Cloud computing lets you run services and store information on remote infrastructure. For automation, decide where information is stored, who manages backups, and what happens when an external service is unavailable.
Examples
These examples illustrate a possible workflow. Adapt the connections and rules to your own systems.
Business process example
A process receives files from a form, stores them, and starts document processing. The file identifier is saved with the request, so processing can resume without asking the customer to upload everything again.

What to check
- A cloud service is not an automatic backup against every mistake you make. Check deletion, recovery, permissions, and data export.
