Watch the video (link above) on CLOUD Computing and define in your own words what you understand to be Cloud Computing.

Solution

The cloud computing is an emerging technology which offer services to the users. The service is offered to the user based on pay per use. That means the user has to pay only for what services and resources are used. This is similar to hiring a cab where we are just bothered about boarding at source and dropping at destination without worrying about the maintainence of the cab, breakdowns and fuel filling etc. In cloud computing the users does not have to worry about the downtimes of the machines in the office, maintainence of the machines etc. They just have ot search for the relevant service that is available on the internet and use them.
The cloud services are offered to different types of users from corporate companies to raw material supplying companies. small scale businesses to a parent to manage the houehold and family needs.
In cloud all kind of data can be stored with the help of large data centres. applications are designed such a way that they can be moulded or modified to satisfy the user requirement.
