Yes, Google Docs is considered a type of cloud computing. Cloud computing refers to the delivery of computing services—including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence—over the Internet (“the cloud”) to offer faster innovation, flexible resources, and economies of scale. Google Docs fits within this definition as it allows users to create, edit, store, and share documents online in real-time, with all the data and the software necessary to use it hosted on Google’s servers. Access to Google Docs and the ability to collaborate with others are facilitated through the internet, making it a quintessential cloud computing service.
