​Cloud is a modern day miracle and it is the pillar technology behind most of the things which we use on the internet. From your social media sites to the Google drive, nothing would have been possible and so much easy to use if the cloud platform wouldn’t have been there. 
​Everybody using the internet from anywhere is using the power of the cloud technology in one way or another and that’s how the cloud computing is contributing its bit towards the modernization of the world and evolution of the currently available technologies.
But the concept of cloud computing is not new, and we can say that the earliest form of cloud computing technology was detected long ago. It took many changes and improvements for the cloud computing world to become usable on such a large scale.
Even with use on such a big scale and involvement in every part of everyone’s daily life, still there are many people who might not be aware of the working of the cloud computing platform and therefore, in this blog post, we will be looking at the working of the cloud computing platform and understand its basics. 

How does the cloud computing platform works?

​First of all, you need to understand that the cloud is a broader term which is used as a metaphor for the internet as well. For example, the cloud symbol is also used to portray the internet on diagrams.  This is because the cloud is like the internet; connecting numerous people and functions on a virtual space.
While on the other side, cloud computing is very much specific and it refers to sharing resource, software, and information via a network. All the information which is used on the cloud is stored on physical servers which are mostly known as the data centers and a particular space of those data centers are rented by hosting providers and on large scale, those data centers are owned by the hosting providers.
If you are using any service of the cloud computing platform then you will not need to store any information on your hard disk and you can access, download the files from any device of your choice like a tablet, mobile, ipads, etc. Along with that, you can also work in real-time on any platform or application like Microsoft Word or PowerPoint Presentation with other users, making your work more productive and minimizing the working hours.
Some of the most common uses of the cloud computing platform involves storing photos, files, videos etc but as we move to the more large scale and specified uses, it involves, app development on the cloud platform, testing on the cloud platform and hosting of applications on cloud platform like the QuickBooks hosting solution.
The biggest benefit of the cloud computing platform is the decrease in the upfront cost of owning an own server and no complexity of maintaining it. The cloud computing platform gives users a golden opportunity of paying for only those things which they use and when they use.  In a similar way, the cloud computing providers can also get benefited through the economies of scale which is obtained by offering the same service to a wide range of customer base. 

What are some most common examples of cloud computing services?

Cloud computing examples can be easily found in your daily activities as well as it underpins a vast number of services. For example, the Gmail is also powered by the cloud computing platform and even the documents on your mobile in the form of cloud backup are also a part of the cloud computing platform. The best example to understand the use of cloud is Netflix because it is able to stream its video live and you are able to watch them without storing it is because of the cloud computing platform.
What is the importance of cloud computing?
Before even discussing how important is cloud computing, let’s firstly have a look at these data
  • According to Vormetric, 85%of the Enterprises keep their sensitive data on the cloud platform in order to keep it secure and safe as cloud computing is the most secured platform.
  • By 2021, the public cloud service market is expected to grow by 278.3 billion dollars and it is among the fastest growing sectors in the world.
  • According to IDC, 67% of the enterprise infrastructure and software will be for cloud-based offering by 2020.
  • According to IDC, the professional services spent a humongous amount of $18.1 billion dollars in 2018.
All these data are enough  to make you realize the importance of the cloud computing platform as even now, you can’t imagine your life without the fruitful cloud computing platform. From research to entertainment, from app development to testing, from hosting to owning severs, cloud computing is present everywhere and now has become an integral part of our life.
