Product Description
One day soon we will discard our PC's and computer servers and instead connect to a virtual digital computing platform in the clouds - where all our data is stored on a remote server, accessible via the internet, and we can share information, applications and processes at will with other users. This is known as cloud computing, and it is going to change the way we live and work. Social networks such as Facebook have already assumed an enormous role in the way the young (and increasingly the older) communicate. Cloud computing will take this to another level. Like the coffee-houses of the 18th century, the Cloud is where business will be discussed, transacted and put into practice. In this important new cutting-edge book, the author explains how it works, and how it is going to change our lives for ever.
