The university-level textbooks and reference
books are expensive. Surprisingly, textbooks have
beaten the cost of all the other learning
elements including tuition fees. The expenses
discourage the students from buying them
affecting their academics.
The technological era projects the cloud-based
textbooks as a solution to this problem. Cloud
computing offers the learning material to be
easily accessible to students with lower income.
This encourages them to download digital
textbooks and study. In addition, the cloud-based
system reduces the on-premise data storage cost
eliminating the expenses associated with a server
room, electric and maintenance.
Cost Saving

The cloud applications are highly secure where
the education content, information, pictures can
be accessed only after verifying the user. The
cloud application normally requests for
verification Id and password protecting the
administrative and learning data. Every student

The cloud-computing infrastructure enhances the
learning process at multiple classrooms
simultaneously with a small set of teachers. It
overcomes the challenge absence of skilled
teachers or lack of school infrastructure in
remote areas. Seamless collaboration between
professors and students for lectures, studies,
projects at the same time irrespective of
location enables the teachers to reach out to
students in remote areas. It helps the teachers
to reach out to students not only across states
but also across countries.
