ftware or information that can be delivered on- demand , over the internet , without the need to store it locally. A simple example of Cloud Computing is Yahoo or Gmail etc. You don’t need a software or a server to use them. All a consumer would need is just an internet connection and you can start sending emails. The server and email management software is all on the cloud(internet) and is managed by the cloud service provider like Yahoo, Google etc. The consumer gets to use the software alone and enjoy the benefits. The analogy is “If you only need milk, would you buy a cow?”. All the users need is to get the benefits of using the software of computer like sending emails etc.. Just to get this benefit (MILK) why should a consumer buy software (COW)?
