Cloud Computing

<p>Sometimes I feel this applies to even the authors themselves. One of the reasons is that most of the books and articles discuss cloud computing from a highly technical viewpoint instead of a user&rsquo;s one. Another is the market-<br/>ing hype that various businesses have created to use cloud computing as a selling point. This has led to a lot of confusion. This situation is common whenever a new technology enters the fray and especially one that is bound to create a major paradigm shift. The purpose of this book therefore is to cut through the hype and show you how you can take advantage of cloud&nbsp; computing. You could be an investor who wants to learn more about the cloud-based technologies produced by the business you invest in an entrepreneur who wants to use cloud computing to ramp up your start-up in an agile manner a lawyer or judge working on a case that relates to cloud computing a&nbsp; technologist who wants to use cloud computing in a new product or service that you are defining a business student who wants to understand the paradigm shift that cloud computing represents to businesses globally or a layperson who is curious about the subject&mdash;this book is for you. This book will help you&nbsp; understand cloud computing from a user&rsquo;s standpoint: when to use it and when not&nbsp;to how to select a cloud service and how to incorporate it with other cloud services or traditional IT and what best practice is when using cloud computing.</p><p></p>
