00:00.000 --> 00:02.540
Introduction of Cloud Computing.

00:02.540 --> 00:08.260
In this video, we will understand key concept of cloud computing.

00:08.260 --> 00:12.260
Identify real-world applications of cloud computing.

00:12.260 --> 00:15.660
Explain the benefits of cloud computing.

00:15.660 --> 00:18.860
Have you ever saved photos, contacts, and personal data

00:18.860 --> 00:22.700
on Google Drive in your real-life experience,

00:22.700 --> 00:25.100
or watched movies on Netflix?

00:25.100 --> 00:28.500
If yes, then you have already used cloud computing.

00:28.500 --> 00:31.420
Let's understand, Cloud Computing is a technology

00:31.420 --> 00:34.660
that allows us to store data, use software,

00:34.660 --> 00:37.020
and access services over the internet,

00:37.020 --> 00:40.340
instead of keeping everything on our personal computers.

00:40.340 --> 00:43.900
It includes saving data online, playing games,

00:43.900 --> 00:46.900
using VR set with cloud and watching movies.

00:46.900 --> 00:50.260
This are examples of cloud computing.

00:50.260 --> 00:53.500
Key characteristics of cloud computing.

00:53.500 --> 00:55.260
Scalability.

00:55.260 --> 00:57.540
Cloud services can increase or decrease

00:57.540 --> 00:59.300
based on user needs.

00:59.300 --> 01:01.780
If more storage or power is required,

01:01.780 --> 01:05.460
it can be upgraded easily without buying new hardware.

01:05.460 --> 01:07.620
On-demand services.

01:07.620 --> 01:10.580
Users can access cloud resources whenever needed,

01:10.580 --> 01:11.980
without waiting.

01:11.980 --> 01:17.220
This allows instant use of apps, storage, or computing power.

01:17.220 --> 01:18.860
Pay as you go.

01:18.860 --> 01:22.380
Users only pay for the exact amount of storage space they use.

01:22.380 --> 01:24.500
There are no upfront costs.

01:24.500 --> 01:26.780
Making it cost-effective.

01:26.780 --> 01:30.300
Real-world example of cloud computing.

01:30.300 --> 01:34.260
Imagine you have important notes and documents in paper form.

01:34.260 --> 01:36.500
But what if you lose them?

01:36.500 --> 01:38.900
Instead of carrying papers around all the time,

01:38.900 --> 01:42.140
you can store your notes in a special magic online space

01:42.140 --> 01:45.580
that you can access anytime, anywhere.

01:45.580 --> 01:49.580
This is exactly what Google Drive does using cloud computing.

01:49.580 --> 01:52.140
Store files online instead of saving files

01:52.140 --> 01:54.580
on your computer or phone.

01:54.580 --> 01:57.980
You can access your documents from any device.

01:57.980 --> 02:00.540
No need USB drive to carry data.

02:00.540 --> 02:02.780
If your phone or computer crashes,

02:02.780 --> 02:05.380
your files remain safe in the cloud.
