Cloud Computing means storing and accessing data and programs over
the Internet instead of your computer's hard drive with an online
connection, cloud computing can be done anywhere, anytime.

4. How are we using the cloud?

5. Essential characteristics

6. Cloud architecture-service models
E.g. Infrastructure service platform storage

14. Conclusion
It is clear that although the use of cloud computing , has
rapidly increased , cloud computing security is still
considered the major issue in the cloud computing
environment. Customers do not want to lose their
private information as a result of malicious insiders in
the cloud. In addition ,the loss of service availability
has caused many problems for a large number of
customers recently.

15. Continued…
 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.
