A study on exposure towards cloud computing in India

The Cloud is not about technology, it is the abstraction of technology for delivering pure services. The Cloud has finally led to the civilization of services because, in the case of Cloud computing, what you pay for is what you get. The reliability of Cloud services is so much greater that, on those rare occasions when it's not perfect, it is considered newsworthy. This paper acknowledges that “A powerful set of catalytic forces is accelerating the speed of social change throughout the world. Cloud Computing – and indeed the whole concept of "Software as a Service" – is continuing to grow in India as popularity. They include a rapid rise in levels of education, high rates of technological innovation and application, ever faster and cheaper communication that dissolves physical and social barriers both within countries and internationally, greater availability and easier access to information, and the further opening up of global markets. By 2020, the people of India will be more numerous, better educated, healthier and more prosperous than any time in our long history. The paper, first understand and deliver the importance of Cloud computing to India. Thereafter try to assess the impact of the Cloud on service providers, areas like telecom, mobile services, Indian firm initiatives, market and job opportunities, future directions and usage of cloud computing networks in Indian scenario. This paper also explains how cloud computing and mobile devices combine present and future new imperatives and challenges for India. Because the mobile phone and devices user market is too big to be ignored, cloud service providers, in collaboration, with mobile service providers have deployed hundreds of cloud-enabled applications and are continuing in their cloud venture to provide an endless range of products.
