Cloud Computing is a very interesting option for an organization to choose from when dealing with architecture choices/configurations. Cloud Computing stands out from the other architecture configurations, whereas with Cloud Computing you pay the service as you go. And any service from the Cloud can be given to you wherever and whenever you need it. Some great benefits of Cloud Computing are a drop in costs, performance, and scalability, which make it stand out the most from its competitors. Having this as an option has made businesses rethink their architecture option and especially when it comes to saving in cost. One thing that stands out to me when dealing with Cloud Computing is security and one particular thing that came to main was vulnerability issues. As everybody knows system vulnerabilities are huge in the 21st Century and people have to be prepared for any attack, and Cloud Computing and how it functions seem like a vulnerability would likely occur. These vulnerabilities could open up the Cloud to any malware, bugs, and malicious attacks and could go on to stealing data! So for me, I believe businesses/organizations need to be aware of some of the disadvantages of Cloud Computing.

Cloud computing is where everything from applications, computing power to computing infrastructure, business processes to personal collaboration can be delivered as a service wherever and whenever it is needed. The “cloud” in question is basically a set of hardware, networks, storage, services, and interfaces that combine into what is known as cloud computing. The issues that arise from cloud computing can come from the fact if all your resources are on cloud computing all it takes is some power fluctuations or something like that for everything to go down on the server. It still is in it’s very early stages yes but putting so much or even everything on something that is still in it’s infancy doesn’t seem to be the greatest of ideas.
