Let's imagine that you own a business software development and does not yet use the facilities of work performed via homeoffice. So you and provide the equipment, need to worry about the licensing of all software used by his team, and this will repeat every time your company hire new employees to increase their staff.

Just reading the above you should be imagining the stress that will face and that will surely take away tranquility.

Here is a solution to avoid this. What would you think of instead of installing a software package for each computer, you'd only have to load an application. That application would allow workers to join a web based service which hosts all the programs the user needs for his work. Remote machines owned by another company would run everything from e-mail to word processing programs for complex data analysis. It's called cloud computing and already Transforming the entire computer industry and the way of working of the leading software development and applications.

In a cloud computing system, there's a significant workload shift. Local computers no longer have to do all the heavy lifting when it comes to running applications. The network of computers that make up the cloud handles them instead. Hardware and software demands on the user's side decrease. The only thing the user's computer needs to be able to run is the cloud computing system's interface software, which can be as simple as a Web browser, and the cloud's network takes care of the rest.

There's a good chance you've already used some form of cloud computing. If you have an e-mail account with a Web-based e-mail service like Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail or Gmail, then you've had some experience with cloud computing. Instead of running an e-mail program on your computer, you log in to a Web e-mail account remotely. The software and storage for your account doesn't exist on your computer -- it's on the service's computer cloud.
