Then came the distributed PC/server which led to chaos and innovation

Enter the Internet innovation, security issues, viruses, panic

What is “The Cloud” Cloud computing is the result of the evolution and adoption of existing technologies and paradigms Two concepts that must be utilized to qualify as a cloud service: Self service Pay as you go

Why do this? Due to legal issues, we can't always use public cloud services “Time to market” Don't waste time waiting on infrastructure This is only the beginning We also need PaaS, SaaS, XaaS
