profits of $2 million per annum, every successful business takes the assistance
of Internet to reach its zenith. Cloud computing is being adopted by major
corporations to store data safely and in a cost effective manner. It is merely

computing has been widely accepted all over the world because it provides
better assistance to companies than that of the companies’ own server. Also, it

(IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS). All
these services have various distinguished characteristics and so the price
charged for every service varies accordingly.

burden of hardware needs to cloud. Cloud allots off-site server where data of a
firm can be stored and accessed over the internet. Using IaaS serves the dual
purpose of a firm as its data can be accessed from anywhere where the presence
of the Internet is found and maintenance cost is cheaper because appointing an
IT professional becomes optional. Cloud charges a significant price for its
service on the basis of utility, i.e. a business enterprise only pays for the
service it enjoys. Hence, it is perfectly suitable for firms that are in its
initial stage and do not opt to invest much in hardware.

is the service where applications can be developed, hosted and tested in an
integrated environment. It is especially made for developers who need
assistance of other developers in order to develop an application. The developed
application is tested and stored safely in the cloud. Hence, it is suitable for
developers whose budget doesn’t allow them to purchase and install supportive
user interface for separate applications. The cloud provides a significant user
interface as well as software layers that facilitate development of
applications. Price is charged on the basis of model in PaaS.
When
it comes to SaaS, it is a service that allows all the hosted applications on
the cloud server to be accessed by people sitting in six out of seven
continents. Basically, millions of users experience some services of SaaS as
various commercial websites avail this service. It is significant for
enterprises that do not need to upgrade software frequently. Generally, a
single location manages the software of a particular company. Cloud computing Companies charges on a monthly basis for this service but the price may vary as per the
bandwidth chosen in the software.

computing has turned out to be an imperative helping hand in the success story
of various firms. Its services have not only drawn attention of developed
countries’ corporations but also of those in developing countries. Hence, easy
