How can i identify cloud computing applications? Can i say like Facebook is cloud application ?
This is ma worst doubt.May be the stupid question i ever asked here.
As per my understanding cloud means storing data,processing data etc using the internet. Example in gmail we can access using internet where we can see inbox,outbox etc like a standalone software. Another example SP sites where we can do so many things.
So can i say Facebook is also cloud since we can store,we can do so many things there.. Please explain.
Example for cloud sites?
Can i say all sites like this site etc are in cloud ?
A cloud application (or cloud app) is an application program that functions in the cloud, with some characteristics of a pure desktop app and some characteristics of a pure Web app. A desktop app resides entirely on a single device at the user's location (it doesn't necessarily have to be a desktop computer). A Web app is stored entirely on a remote server and is delivered over the Internet through a browser interface.
