To be an successful entrepreneur
• If you have any ideas of starting your own venture, IMPLEMENT immediately. It should not be just ‘talk’, but having the conviction to put your ideas into practice.
• It is ok to make mistakes but learn from them
• When a venture needs funding, we should look at different options, including angel investors.
• Hard work.
What is cloud computing ?
Cloud computing is a general term for anything that involves delivering hosted services over the Internet. These services are broadly divided into three categories: Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). The name cloud computing was inspired by the cloud symbol that's often used to represent the Internet in flowcharts and diagrams.

CAREERS IN CLOUD COMPUTING
IT professionals have to learn about the various ways in which services can be delivered to customers. Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model has already proved a good value proposition for enterprises, they just outsource their application requirement to a third party to manage and provide them with that service. And SaaS is just a pre-cursor to cloud computing.
Cloud Computing in coming years is going to transform the IT infrastructure space. It is a platform where service providers will deliver IT-enabled services to consumers with a host of features and benefits.
