The Classification of Clouds The scientific study of clouds began in 1803 when Luke Howard‚ a British pharmacist and amateur meteorologist‚ introduced the first system for classifying clouds. Although many other procedures for cloud classification have been devised over the years‚ Howard’s system is so simple and effective that it is still in use today. It is based on the shape‚ distribution‚ and altitude of clouds. He identified ten different categories‚ but they are all variations of three

History of Cloud Computing The term “cloud computing” was most probably derived from the diagrams of clouds used to represent the Internet in textbooks. The concept was derived from telecommunications companies who made a radical shift from point-to-point data circuits to Virtual Private Network (VPN) services in the 1990s. By optimizing resource utilization through load balancing‚ they could get their work done more efficiently and inexpensively. The first time the term was used in its current

Cloud computing is Internet-based computing‚ whereby shared resources‚ software and information are provided to computers and other devices on-demand‚ like a public utility. It is a paradigm shift following the shift from mainframe to client-server that preceded it in the early ’80s. Details are abstracted from the users who no longer have need of‚ expertise in‚ or control over the technology infrastructure "in the cloud" that supports them.[1] Cloud computing describes a new supplement‚ consumption
