Therefore, with this technology in place in our modern age can education solely exist online through MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) or other cloud computing academic experiences? A report published in The Times Higher Education suggests, “The average completion rate for massive open online courses is less than 7 per cent” (Jordan, K. 2013). What are the future possibilities of education as evidently technology is being incorporated to aid achievement, despite the low long distance success?

Skeuomorphism familiarity versus Metro simplicity, each has fundamental support and suggested disapproval. Each design philosophy is employed individually by two of the largest computer manufacturers in the world, statistical evidence points to a possible successor or is this a bucking trend? Is one of the largest computer manufactures in the world running out of ideas?

In this paper the definition of cloud computing is investigated with examples and scenarios. By breaking down the main elements of cloud computing we can see just how frequently it appears in our daily lives. With any online service today comes the inevitable security risks. Investigation is conducted into the overview of security and law that is expected as we increasingly choose cloud services for our data storage and purchases. Geographical location of connection and data centres is also a key importance in the cloud-computing sector enhancing the complexity of the legislation revolving around data storage and accessibility.
