Cloud computing

Cloud computing is a computing term or metaphor that evolved in the late 1990s, based on utility and consumption of computer resources.

Purely cloud computing does not rely on the use of cloud storage as it will be removed upon users download action. Clouds can be classified as public, private and hybrid.[1][2] Overview[edit] Information Architects » Blog Archive » Trend Map 2008: What’s N.
