Abstract
Education plays an important role for human being for overall development. Initially in India, education was offered at
‘Paathshala’- the place for primary and lifelong education. But the growth of educational systems like University, colleges, Training Centre and several educational places are involved and change themselves depending upon requirement and time
need. Conventional educational systems is actually deals with class room based teaching and learning; though today apart from the several education mediums are evolved and growing rapidly. E-learning, Distance Education and Online Education is also an important role of contemporary learning. Cloud computing is a new computing model which is based on the grid computing, distributed computing, parallel computing and virtualization technologies define the shape of a new technology.
It is the core technology of the next generation of network computing platform, especially in the field of education, cloud computing is the basic environment and platform of the future E-learning. It provides secure data storage, convenient internet services and strong computing power.
