Cloud computing is internet based development and use of computer technology . In concept, it is a paradigm shift whereby details are abstracted from the users who no longer need knowledge of, expertise in, or control over the technology infrastructure "in the cloud" that supports them. The term cloud is used as a metaphor for the Internet, based on how the Internet is depicted in computer network diagrams and is an abstraction of the underlying infrastructure it conceals.

Instead of leaving your home computer on, and connected to the internet, you upload the files to the 'cloud' - to a secure location. Once you get to the meeting, you access the 'cloud' from the computer where the meeting is being held, and the files you saved are there for you to access.
