What is Cloud Computing
In computer networking, cloud computing is a phrase a large number of computers connected tused to describe a variety of computing concepts that involve hrough a real-time communication network such as the Internet.
Cloud Computing is a technology that uses the internet and central remote servers to maintain data and applications.
Cloud computing allows consumers and businesses to use applications without installation and access their personal files at any computer with internet access.
Cloud Computing is a Service
The simplest thing that a computer does is allow us to store and retrieve information. We can store our family photographs, our favorite songs, or even save movies on it. This is also the most basic service offered by cloud computing.
The name cloud computing was inspired by the cloud symbol that's often used to represent the Internet in flowcharts and diagrams
Why Cloud Computing?
Can Save You Money - You no longer have to pay for someone (or a team of someones) to do things such as install and update software, install and manage email servers and/or fine servers, run backups – the beauty of cloud computing is that all of the business of maintaining the service or application is the responsibility of the cloud vendor, not yours.
Because it's the best thing for small business
You no longer have to buy software - Besides the convenience of not having to buy software programs and install them on your own servers/computers, using cloud applications instead can be cheaper.
Cloud computing allows you and your employees easy access to applications and data from different computers and devices.
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is in a period of strong growth, but this technology is still has some issues of security and somewhat it is immature. Government Technology Research Alliance (GTRA) research showed that the most common concern about implementing Cloud Computing technology was security.
The real value of cloud computing is that it makes your library related software and data available transparently and everywhere including in latest available smart phone devices.
We are all aware, country like India faced problems like digital divide and off course very low internet bandwidth. So, benefit of new technology can be reached to limited area of educational area.
But definitely, over a period of time Cloud Computing will become the most promising technology in next few years.
