We used to refer to the clouds as the ones in the sky.However,in every smart devices we have these days it always asks us to upgrade our files to a different kind of "cloud".
The definition of internet cloud -or basically a computer-run space to store your files or to share them with the world -came to life in the end of 1980s.However,when i say cloud computing that's a whole new level which came into life in the late 2000s.Cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and more—over the Internet (“the cloud”).
Most websites and server-based applications run on particular computers or servers. What differentiates the cloud from the way those are set up is that the cloud utilizes the resources from the computers as a collective virtual computer, where the applications can run independently from particular computer or server configurations. They are basically floating around in a “cloud of resources”, making the hardware less important to how the applications work.
What can be done with cloud computing ?
• Create new apps and services
• Store, back up, and recover data
• Host websites and blogs
• Stream audio and video
• Deliver software on demand
• Analyze data for patterns and make predictions
What are the top benefits of cloud computing:
1-Speed
2-Everything you have is global and accessible anywhere
3-Cost: you wouldn't have to maintain a physical facility for servers and super computers
4-High performance that you can process terabytes in minutes

Cloud computing is such an interesting topic to write about because it is so prevalent today. One of the main aspects of cloud computing is that data is so accessible from virtually anywhere. Aside from its many benefits, I think one of the biggest obstacles in the success of this industry has been the security issues involved in storing large amounts of data on remote servers.
