Embracing the Cloud: Advantages of Cloud-Based BAS
Cloud-based BAS offer several advantages over traditional on-premise systems:
Scalability: Cloud-based BAS are inherently scalable. Storage capacity and processing power can be easily adjusted to accommodate a growing number of devices or additional building automation functionalities. This eliminates the need for costly hardware upgrades or software license renewals associated with on-premise BAS.
Remote Access and Management: ...
