Key Terms

cloud-based pos system technical
A cloud-based POS system is a point-of-sale setup—software (and often connected hardware) that handles sales, payments, inventory and customer data—hosted on remote servers and accessed over the internet, like a cash register that lives online instead of on a store’s local computer. Investors care because vendors typically sell it as ongoing subscriptions that create steady recurring revenue and scalable growth, while performance depends on uptime, security and data-privacy practices that can affect earnings and valuation.
wifi technical
Wi-Fi is a technology that lets devices like phones, laptops, and sensors connect wirelessly to the internet and to each other over short distances, using radio signals instead of cables. For investors it matters because Wi‑Fi affects how products work, how businesses run and scale, and where revenue or costs may come from—think of it as the invisible roadway that enables digital services, office productivity, retail checkout and many internet‑connected devices to function reliably.
cybersecurity technical
Cybersecurity involves protecting computers, networks, and digital information from theft, damage, or unauthorized access. It is essential for safeguarding sensitive data and maintaining trust in digital systems, which matters to investors because strong cybersecurity reduces the risk of costly breaches and disruptions that can impact a company’s performance and reputation. Think of it as locking and safeguarding valuable information much like securing a safe to prevent theft.
unified communications technical
Unified communications is a set of tools and services that combine phone calls, video meetings, instant messaging, voicemail, and file sharing into a single, connected system so employees can communicate from one place—like a smartphone that brings all apps together. Investors care because it can lower communication costs, speed decision-making, improve customer response, and make a company more scalable and secure, all of which can affect productivity and profitability.

OCEAN CITY, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- To celebrate Small Business Month, Comcast Business, the largest connectivity provider to small businesses in the U.S., is inviting locals and visitors to Longboard Café in Ocean City, MD on May 7, starting at 11AM ET: the first 100 dining parties of two or more will receive a $20 gift card for Longboard Café , while supplies last – good toward anything from Longboard’s famous wings to a tasty appetizer.

The promotion is part of Comcast Business’ ongoing support of the surf-themed bistro.
