A Review of Cloud Computing Potential to Improve Online Education

Abstract

E-learning, or virtualized computing and remote learning, makes use of internet communication tools to help in the teaching-learning process. The last two years have seen a meteoric growth in the popularity of online learning platforms. When it comes to formal education, data mining for IT purposes leverages information gleaned from online databases to improve the educational learning paradigm. Supporting e-learning solutions on a cloud computing infrastructure makes sense. Long-term changes in computer resource use may be made automatically with the help of a scalable solution. Using data mining methods in a decentralized setting simplifies interfacing with large e-learning datasets. The research provides a brief overview of cloud computing at the present time as well as some instances of cloud-specific infrastructure. E-learning and cloud-based computing are only two of the topics covered.
