CultusCloud computing is defined as the means of storing data and having easy access to it through the Internet. This is going against the traditional way of just putting all of the data in a computer’s hard drive. In this case, the “cloud” refers to the internet, describing it as one gigantic server infrastructure that accepts different kinds of information as it floats around in cyberspace.
Data storage has never been easier, since millions of people all across the world add new data into the World Wide Web every single day. Running programs and saving data into the hard drive of your personal computer is called local storage. This is the most commonly used way of accessing information along with various programs in the computer since the early 1980s. Some experts say that this is still the fastest and easiest way of doing it. This argument tends to go against cloud computing since it uses the Internet and in some ways the old way of doing things can be sometimes considered superior to the new trend.

Lastly, there’s Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). This is the type of service that big name online companies like Google and Amazon uses to rent out to other companies. This is all made possible by a remote desktop accessing platform that can easily be maintained anywhere.
