5. What is cloud computing?
âAt the foundation of cloud
computing is the broader concept
of infrastructure convergence. This
type of data centre environment
allows enterprises to get their
applications up and running faster,
with easier manageability and less
maintenance, and enables IT to
more rapidly adjust IT resources
(such as servers, storage, and
networking) to meet fluctuating
and unpredictable business
demandâ

24. Gamification
Simplifying the Cloud
âThe use of game design techniques, game thinking
and game mechanics to enhance non-game contexts.
Typically gamification applies to non-game
applications and processes, in order to encourage
people to adopt them, or to influence how they are
used.
Gamification works by making technology more
engaging, by encouraging users to engage in desired
behaviours, by showing a path to mastery and
autonomy, by helping to solve problems and not being
a distraction, and by taking advantage of humans'
psychological predisposition to engage in gamingâ
