The company was established by Steve Jobs in conjunction with his friends; Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne. Apple was originally established to develop personal computers but over the years the company has grown into a technology giant designing and selling a wide range of consumer electronics such as smartphones and personal computers. Mission The mission of Apple is to bring the best user experience to its customers through its innovative hardware, software, and services. The company is focused on ensuring its customers get the best (Apple, 2020). Goals The overall goal of Apple revolves around efficiency and effectiveness. The company looks forward to providing the best product and services within the shortest time possible. This is to ensure it can meet the demands of the market as they arise. Businesses need to be focused on serving their customers withing tight timeframes. Achievements Apple has many achievements and one of the most outstanding ones is the iCloud. This enables Apple’s customers to enjoy cloud storage as well as cloud computing services (Apple, 2010). It is considered an achievement because it can be remotely accessed from any Apple device regardless of the location. It has boosted data security and increased access to information References Apple. (2010). iCloud: The best place for all your photos, files, and more.

The first challenge is navigating trading uncertainty as it faces problems with China’s trade policy. This country is the essential market for apple, but the firm has undergone some challenges in it so far. This challenge is the opposition of preview in which iPad faces and a debt-ridden firm that deals with electronic, demand the ownership of the trademark for the name saying that they are the rightful owners (Chung and Park, 2019). This claim has led to government officials pulling the tablet from stores suddenly in this country even though they were in high demand. This affects the profit of the apple company as it loses potential customers. Another challenge is the one that limits its competitiveness and is known as the Android challenge. Although the market for smartphones and tablets is growing, Apple is finding it hard to find new customers quickly as other Google’s Android platforms or increase their sales volume (Khattri and Nayak, 2020). They face a lot of competition from these platforms as they get more customers quickly than Apple. This is because the Androids tablets and smartphones are made with several companies, whereas the iPad is only produced by Apple (Rittinghouse and Ransome, 2016). It is also natural for apple to lose some of its market shares as other firms rush in with the latest and new version of their own gadgets. Apple Company planned to leverage Cloud computing to overcome its challenges facilitating iCloud use in accessing the internet. They addressed the challenge by setting limitations of the software of iCloud to facilitate specific interactions when using a WIFI internet connection (Dempsey, 2019). This enhances the use of cellular data in iCloud. This increased their competitive advantage as they are able to regulate data usage in the 3G wireless plan over their competitors. This has increased profitability as they have gained a wider market and new consumers for their services by scheduling synchronization tasks (Chatterjee and AsokeNath, 2016). It uses cloud computing is storing its files that permit the users to leverage secure and highly reliable cloud features and abilities in sharing and locating information.

Cloud computing enables the customers to access data and services from servers of the organization rather than their remote gadgets (phone and computers). The paper explores cloud computing services in Apple, Inc. Apple, the technology giant, has been at the forefront of cloud computing. iCloud enables the users to provide service and software through the internet instead of the clients accessing their information from their remote devices (Privat & Warner, 2014). Apple provides 5GB of data to all customers with Apple IDs; they access content on any device. The service also enables them to synchronize photos, settings, and contacts after switching tools. iCloud provided storage to the users lowering the total costs that users used to spend on purchasing hard disks and storage devices (Privat & Warner, 2014). Another benefit of cloud computing that the company realized was increased software integration. The technology made it easy for the company to compatibility. Lastly, there is increases security of the client’s information. Cloud computing increased is the strategic end- the approach increased the competitiveness of the organization. Through the service, there has been an increase in Apple products such as iPhone and MacBook devices. Consequently, there was an increased demand for services after the launch of the technology in 2012 (Privat & Warner, 2014).  Closer competitors like Samsung do not offer cloud computing that gives Apple an upper hand. Apple obtained its objective after the launch of cloud computing. At its start in 2012, the primary aim of the services, the principal purpose was to provide a secure way that the users would manage their content. Today, an apple user only requires an Apple ID and uses any devices to manage content like photos, applications, and contacts.    References Privat, M., & Warner, R. (2014).
