‘Cloud’ is a set of different types of hardware and software that work collectively to deliver many aspects of computing to the end-user as an online service.Computing is being transformed into a model in which water, electricity, gas, and telephony are delivered and distributed in a manner similar to utilities. In such a model, users can use services based on their needs without hosting services. Several computing paradigms have promised to deliver this utility computing vision and include grid computing, P2P computing and more recently cloud computing. The term refers to an infrastructure as a cloud in which businesses and users are able to use applications from anywhere in the world on demand. Cloud provides infrastructure, platforms, and software (applications) in the form of computing services, which are made available to consumers as subscriptionbased services in a pay-as-you-go model. In the industry these services are referred to as Infrastructure as Service (Iaas), Platform to Service (PaaS), and Software to Service (SaaS) respectively. The exact advantages will vary according to the type of cloud service used, but, fundamentally, the use of cloud services means that companies do not need to buy or maintain their computing infrastructure. This study tries to explore the importance of cloud computer in the era of information technology.
