⇒ Summary
Write the final version of your summary here.

Cloud storage is important for communication between computers, it allows easy access,
and larger storages.

This idea was generated many years ago, when people began to communicate and connect.

In the 70s / 80s, communicating was quite difficult and expensive, but with the advent of the
internet, communication between people changed in such a way that it made everything
easier.

In 2000, the idea of the cloud as storage was born and from 2008 people began to use it
more frequently.

Cloud storage can be used by individuals or companies, although with different uses.

Individuals use it as storage for their photos, videos and other digital things, while companies
use it to work as a team, making use of virtual machines and in some cases software that
they do not need to buy and can rent while making use of them.

Although it is safe, some people fear for the privacy of their data and information, and for
this they make use of different services, both public and private, taking into account the
purpose of their work.
