Page 1 of 2

Cloud computing has been the byword for different businesses today. This is a type of process that relies o the internet or online connectivity for different data processing instead of using the local gadget. The internet has come a long way of providing different types of services to users.



Years ago, the internet is just used merely for information gathering and email. Today, the internet could become a host of different types of applications which will not require any local installation in the users end.


Cloud computing promises portability as users would just have to need a strong internet connection to ensure the process is done. Cloud computing could even emulate the desktop experience.


Cloud computing is usually focused on the enterprise. As businesses today require more collaboration in real time without any geographical consideration, cloud computing became a viable option as this will provide real time interaction in business process. It offers the portability to different users without having to constantly require the local gadget for certain installations.


Considering Web 2.0

The term “Web 2.0” on the other hand, have been used for many years long before cloud computing became popular in the software development industry. But instead of defining Web 2.0 about the components it requires, Web 2.0 is more about the interaction the user will receive.


In Web 2.0, the focus of different online applications is the user wherein they are given the freedom to connect and make some changes on their online environment. Web 2.0 is more about the interaction between users.


Classic examples of Web 2.0 are the different online social networking websites. Users of these websites will be able to connect to one another while trying to make some changes in their online environment depending on their preferences.



Although Web 2.0 will still require hardware support, its focus is more on the actual interaction of the online application with the user. The application seen in different Web 2.0 websites are always geared towards the user’s need to do something about their experience online.
