What is cloud computing?Explained
simple concept of cloud computing
It is not that cloud computing means the process of doing the computer operation through the cloud.Actually the process of cloud computing is same as the process of cloud formation.Like the water vapor collects at a same place to form a cloud,similarly various computers and computer user collects at a network to form the cloud computing.Like the cloud is not fixed at same place,the process of cloud computing is not fixed you can operate it from any place at any time.
Real life example
You might have heard about google drive,dropbox,onedrive if you use computers frequently.All of these are the examples of cloud computing.These provides service of storage where you can save your datas and files and you can operate those files at any time with any device all you need is authority to use,device and internet facility.
But the cloud computing is not all about storage.There are several real life examples of cloud computing.Cloud computing also provides several services.For example 'you have a old pc and your required tasks are not possible through it but you have a high speed internet connection.So,what can you do is you can use others computer power to do your task and you might have to pay to do this.'
Many companies prefer cloud computing to save alot of investment which can be utilized in other sectors.What most of the companies do is use the services of cloud computing to do their Computer based tasks.For example'A company has the human resource of 1000 people'.It is very expensive for the company to invest on IT infrastructures so what they really do is buy services from cloud computing services to secure data,store data and do the high-end computer operation and save huge amount of their capital.
Major Advantages
The major advantage of cloud computing is that you dont have to keep working on a particular device.You can work freely on any device at any time you prefer.For an example'if you use offline version of MS-word you have to keep working on same device continously but if you work on MS-word online you keep on typing and all your typed information are safe on cloud computing and you can stop and continue typing on any device only you need is internet service.Likewise you can edit your documents at any time period and you can operate to your files from any place.So the datas are more save in cloud computing.
Another advantage of cloud computing is you dont have to carry the storage devices everywhere you go because you can get in touch to your files at any place because your files are secured under cloud computing .
