Cloud Computing is an English word that's translated to the Spanish means computing in the cloud and is nothing more than a technological term that refers to a type of business that brings together a number of ideas, all different and related storage, communications between computers and the development of methodological applications.
Before internalizing this term a little more, it is important to define what the cloud is or specifically the internet, then, it must be said that this is a set of computers distributed throughout the planet earth and linked by a communications network that allows access by information to those who need it. Being clear about this, then it is necessary that the internet is a cloud that people access when they require information of any kind.
The internet is an immense universe which offers various types of things, such as information, services, products, among others. Not everything that happens there is cloud computing and less the publications that are only information, it is more towards the service provision part that this term focuses on.
On the internet there is a large network of services that offer various resources which are their own, such as the hosting service that allows people to save information outside of computers, that is, this information will be in the cloud and accessible to whoever wants to search for it. Another example of the services offered by this technological instrument is email and all the applications it contains. These examples do consider cloud computing.
Given the aforementioned and summarizing the content a bit, cloud computing is nothing more than a technological instrument used as a business model where the main purpose is to provide storage services and the use of computer resources based on the network. There are several cloud models and what differentiates them from each other is their privacy:
Public clouds: people or users have free access to services without there being control over the information on the provider's server. The fact that they are in the public domain does not imply that they are unsafe.
Private clouds: They are directed to clients and thanks to their information are for their exclusive use.
Hybrid clouds: Together with the previous two, that is, private and public part.
