what is cloud computing?Cloud computing for businesses consists of the online use of computer resources through a web-based portal. Companies no longer need to manage their own computer servers but can progressively access a range of services, without having to worry about the management of an often complex and expensive infrastructure.
It is estimated that the market for cloud computing is increasing five times faster than the traditional computer market: +25% a year between 2008 and 2012. In 2009, the worldwide market represented 17.4 billion dollars. In 2013, it is expected to reach 44.2 billion dollars.
