WHAT IS IT?
The term “Cloud” refers a metaphor for the Internet, based on the cloud drawing used in the past to originally represent the telephone network, and the later to depict the Internet in computer network diagrams as an abstraction of the underlying infrastructure it represents.
Cloud computing provides computing as a service instead of as a product
Independent research firm Forrester Research expects the global cloud computing market to reach $241 billion in 2020 compared to $40.7 in 20101
