This document discusses cloud computing, which involves storing and accessing data over the internet rather than on a local hard drive. It provides advantages like worldwide access, reduced costs, and increased storage. Disadvantages include potential security issues, privacy risks if unauthorized users access information, and reliance on internet connectivity. The document also describes different types of cloud services: Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). It then discusses Google Drive and Dropbox as examples of personal cloud storage services.

1. Cloud Computing
It means storing and accessing data and programs over
the Internet instead of your computer's hard drive.

2. CLOUD
It is the technology of distributed data processing in
which some scalable information resources and
capacities are provided as a service to multiple
external customers through Internet technology.

3. Worldwide Access
Cloud computing increases mobility,
as you can access your documents
from any device in any part of the
world.
Reduced Cost
Cloud computing is often inexpensive.
The software is already installed
online, so you won’t need to install it
yourself.
More Storage
Cloud computing provides increased
storage, so you won’t have to worry
about running out of space on your hard
drive.

4. DISADVANTAGES
Security
When using a cloud computing service, you are essentially
handing over your data to a third party. The fact that the
entity, as well as users from all over the world, are
accessing the same server can cause a security issue.
Privacy
Cloud computing comes with the risk that unauthorized users
might access your information. To protect against this happening,
cloud computing services offer password protection and operate
on secure servers with data encryption technology.
Internet Reliance
While Internet access is increasingly widespread, it is not
available everywhere just yet. If the area that you are in
doesn’t have Internet access, you won’t be able to open any
of the documents you have stored in the cloud.

5. 1. Infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS)
The most basic category of cloud computing
services.With IaaS, you rent IT infrastructure—
servers and virtual machines (VMs), storage,
networks, operating systems—from a cloud
provider on a pay-as-you-go basis. 2. Platform as a service (PaaS)
It is designed to make it easier for developers
to quickly create web or mobile apps, without
worrying about setting up or managing the
underlying infrastructure of servers, storage,
network and databases needed for
development.
3. Software as a service (SaaS)
It is a method for delivering software applications
over the Internet, on demand and typically on a
subscription basis.

6. It is a personal cloud storage service from Google that lets users store and
synchronize digital content across computers, laptops and mobile devices,
including Android-powered tablet and smartphone devices.
It’s easy to use and highly effective in most situations. That makes it one of
the best choices you will have for all your professional needs.

7. Benefits of Google Drive
Backup Your Precious Files Efficient Built-in Search Engine
Send Large Files to Family, Friends or
Co-Workers
Completely Free to Use
Use Google Drive App to Access
Documents
Open and Edit Various Kinds of Document

8. It is a personal cloud storage service (sometimes referred to as an online backup
service) that is frequently used for file sharing and collaboration.
Files in the Dropbox folder can be accessed from anywhere with an Internet
connection
the user just has to log in to his account to upload, download and share files.

9. FREEs.
