"God decided what was good or bad. With humanism, this was replaced by human emotion. In the 21st century authority will shift back to the clouds, but not to those of the gods. It will shift to the clouds of Microsoft, Google and Facebook."--Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow (2015) by Yuval Noah Harari

Cloud computing is the delivery of computing as a service rather than a product, whereby shared resources, software, and information are provided to computers and other devices as a utility (like the electricity grid) over a network (typically the Internet). Clouds can be classified as public, private or hybrid.
