Talk:Cloud (service)
Add topicMove article to just Cloud?
[edit source]What about moving this article (Cloud (service)) to the more general Cloud heading, leaving the rest of the content basically intact?
I had been thinking of merging self-hosting and LAN (your own cloud) into a cloud article.
-- Preserving my notes from proposal for article on Cloud
Somebody else's computer. Examples: OneDrive, ICloud, Ring
Issues:
- Legal protections your vs. somebody else's computer.
- Recovery when lose credentials. etc.

Unclear - Everything that isn't mine is cloud
[edit source]"However, a "cloud service" may refer to a data processing service provided by the manufacturer that is not based on cloud computing." What does this mean? From a consumer's perspective, it either happens "here" (locally on my devices), or someplace else (i.e., the cloud). If this is trying to distinguish between second party servers (e.g. belonging to the company who sold me the hardware, e.g.) and third party (e.g. amazon AWS), why? What is the benefit of making this distinction for this audience? Drakeula (talk) 07:50, 21 October 2025 (UTC)
