Cloud Computing - Overview

As a user of AWS, Google etc, I was intrigued by the fact that people spoke about cloud. Yes, I could understand that storage and hard disk would mean. I have heard about Big Data and Cloud computing from friends who made me feel an amateur. With a lot of struggle I started searching and studied the whole of RDMS, SQL, Python to understand how this data has an advantage in making our life more effective. Lets understand what this all would mean. Now look at this image which will give a quick understanding on what Cloud data mean.
