== What is a cloud? ==

The term cloud is often user with really understanding its meaning. Its a term used across a number of different disciplines to describe a group of things that appear as one, from a distance, such as:

* Meteorology: A waether cloud is a mass of water droplets
* Mathematics: A larger number of points on a graph is a point cloud
* Astronomy: Star Clouds

In computing a cloud refers to a collections of computing technologies that work together to provide a service. While this definitions can be applied to a large number of systems, cloud computing is defined by serveral traits:

* Rapid elasticity - capabilities are easily scaled
* Measured Service - monitoring by consumption
* On demand self service - Provision as much as you need
* Broad Network - Access any where on any device
* Resource Pooling: Infrastructure is shared

		+	== Cloud Service Models ==

		+	* Insfrastucture as a Service (IaaS) - Hardware including serversm storage and networking on demands in a pay as you go model
		+	* Platform as a Service (PaaS) - Geared towards facilitating the creatation and deployment of applications and services - PaaS provides instructure along with solution specific toolkits.
		+	* Software as a Service (SaaS) - Subscription based and centrally hosted application that is access over the web
		+
		+	== Cloud and Virtualization ==
		+
		+	Cloud computing does into mean virtualization!!! A cloud provides a service, which may or many not invclude virualization.
		+
		+	Virtualization on the other hand simulates a hardware platform.
