How Does Cloud Computing Work?

by Leon Gray

Overview

Social networks are part of daily life, but there seems to be no end to the number of comments and pictures one can post. Internet e-mail providers, such as Gmail and Hotmail, are similarly common and seem to have infinite storage space. Cloud computing is part of the reason. Readers will learn the history of the Internet and computer servers leading to the modern technology of the cloud. Colorful photographs accompany clear explanations of many important tech terms and ideas, including IP addresses, ISPs, and more.
