A New Era: The Cloud

While some people are already familiar with the idea of the cloud, others are still waiting for the concept to fully prove itself before embracing it.

What is the cloud?

It means being able to store data on a remote server instead of on a physical local machine. This way, the stored data is accessible anywhere and at any time. The only drawback is that you need an internet connection.

For several years, the cloud has taken on an increasingly important role. The main result of this is the modification of our consumption habits.

In fact, you may already be using cloud services such as Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, Apple iCloud, and others. Your personal habits have also changed as a result. For example, you might listen to music on Spotify, Tidal, or Apple Music, or watch movies and TV shows on Netflix.

Even if the cloud is spreading more and more, and that the personal life/Cloud shift has already happened for many, it takes longer in the professional environment.

Dassault Systèmes on a cloud dynamic

For the 3D CAD industry, 2020 is a year of change and innovation. Indeed, Dassault Systèmes released on July 6th the 100% 3DEXPERIENCE® Cloud Platform. This is the new version and new way of using 3D CAD software such as SOLIDWORKS and CATIA.

This platform is attracting more and more attention.

The 3DEXPERIENCE® 100% Cloud Platform

You have direct access to 3DEXPERIENCE® through your web browser. Through this platform, you'll have access to your data, and the design applications are managed directly in the cloud.

Cloud & Security

The biggest concern for professionals is data protection. This fear is often accompanied by a lack of understanding of the concept of the cloud. In fact, the Securing Your data is secured by Dassault Systèmes. Many organizations trust this security. We can cite AIRBUS, TESLA, etc.

Cloud & Mobility

Thanks to the cloud, you can now create, edit, and share your work across different devices, anywhere. It’s the agile solution that removes the practical barriers you may have encountered. You can use your 3D CAD software from the office, from home, or remote work or on the go from your phone or tablet.
