Cloud computing refers to both the application deliverer as services over the Inter and the hardware and systems in the data centers that provide those services.  Cloud computing is coming up in the IT world and has the chance to become a major factor in the IT industry.  The hardware and software from the data center is what people refer to as the cloud.  There are different types of cloud computing. You have public cloud and private cloud.  Public cloud is a cloud made available in a pay-as-you go manner to the general public.

The cloud user is responsible for security the application being used by the company.  Cloud computing will grow and become more dependable. Very soon the cloud computing will be a major factor. It has some issues that need to be improved as far as the application software, infrastructure software, and hardware systems. Once these issues are improved to help the cloud run better it become a game changer!
