Problems encountered for researching Cloud Computing

Problems encountered with researching this topic was that i was difficult to find information on how cloud computing works and ins easy to understand I was bale to overcome this by finding videos on youtube that explained this topic quite well and doing better research.

Another issue I had with this topic was trying to upload the video I had I was able to overcome this by finding a way to embed the video into the powerpoint show.
