Cloud Computing
History:
In 1997, the first academic definition was provided by Ramanath K. Chellappa who called it a computing paradigm where the boundaries of computing will be determined by economic rationale rather than technical limits.
The term cloud had already come into commercial use in the early 1990s to refer to large Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks. In the early 2000s, Microsoft extended the concept of SaaS through the development of web services. In 2007, Google, IBM, and a number of universities embarked on a large scale cloud computing research project. On January 13, 2010, HP and Microsoft announced an agreement to invest $250 million over the next three years to significantly simplify technology environments via cloud computing.

Conclusion
Cloud Computing enables a shift from the computer to the user, from applications to tasks, and from isolated data to data that can be accessed from anywhere and shared with anyone. Cloud computing offers real alternatives to IT departments for improved flexibility and lower cost. The user no longer needs to remember where the data is. All that matters is that the data is in the cloud, and its available to user. Markets are developing for the delivery of software applications, platforms, and infrastructure as a service to IT departments over the cloud. Good career opportunities.
