Cloud Computing: Presented by Mark Mathson

Cloud computing allows for shared computing resources to be accessed over the internet as opposed to using local servers or devices. It is made up of grid infrastructure and utilizes virtualization and web applications. Key aspects include the user interface, services catalog, system management, provisioning tools, and monitoring/metering of resources. Benefits include cost savings for resources and storage, scalable services, and redundancy for disaster recovery. The future of cloud computing remains uncertain but major players include Amazon, Google, and virtualization technologies.
