The history of cloud computing goes back to the early 1960s. Computer Scientist, John McCarthy, delivered a speech where he spoke about the possibility of someday having computing power and related applications that could be accessed remotely, similar to electricity, water, and other utilities. The idea was further discussed in Douglas Parkhill's 1966 book, "The Challenge of the Computer Utility." The idea of cloud computing became popular in the late 1960s, but did not become available until the early 2000s.
