If the precise start of the Cloud is not dated, its commercial exploitation can be said to have as its most well-known and typical use of the associated concepts, the launch by Amazon of the service Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), in August 2006.

The Amazon is certainly one of the most famous cases of adoption of the concept of cloud computing, since at the time of the release of EC2, was one of the companies that had more demand for processing and storage of database needed to feed its giant platform of e-commerce.

Computer networks are the basis of communication in IT. They are used in a huge variety of ways and can include many different types of network.

As a user of this type of service, he became a major supplier, using the infrastructure he created to meet his own interests and the expertise acquired in managing his cloud, he started making it available to the market.

And on the "ride” from Amazon came other technology giants, such as Google, Microsoft and IBM, which for different reasons, but for the needs of their own business models, also had large computer networks in which cloud models were deployed and which more later they would come to be shared with a market with growing demand for the advantages and possibilities that cloud computing could supply.
