Cloud-computing isn't just the Internet
The first sentence should be modified. There is an entire industry around private cloud computing that is not delivered over the internet, but over private lines. Fonesurj (talk) 19:56, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, I totally agree!
- Within the Computer Science community, Cloud is used as a general term to describe a set of distributed services possibly running on different computers, networks and sites; that end users sees as a whole system. The term cloud has been used (before the term was picked up by the internet community) by Talarian and later by TIBCO to describe a set of PUB/SUB servers that clients regard as one. Ref: SmartSockets. Having one single entry point (endpoint), an uniform interface and login procedure to a set of distributed services may qualify that domain as a cloud.
- Please modify as suggested.

Illustration: "Cloud computing logical diagram" is missleading
The illustration gives the impression that there is only one cloud, which consists of all known internet service provicders such as Yahoo, Microsoft and Google. Instead, I would suggest something more general like this: CLOUD
Buzzword
Sounds like an emerging buzzword. Should then have Category:Buzzwords. Rursus dixit. (mbork3!) 21:50, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
- I agree! Now, we're one against the universe! Rursus dixit. (mbork3!) 14:15, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
Article is for Technical Users
I believe that Wiki articles are needed to address on general users instead of specialists. This article is not very easy to understand and needs some more work in order to be understandable for all users. Beside of this, Introduction may need to be changed or modified to give first time users better impression and understanding. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Simonare (talk • contribs) 16:49, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
