Abstract
Cloud storage and computing continues to present itself as a solution to the data storage and computational needs required by Asset Management applications. Indeed, a fleet of assets that are properly monitored using sensory networks will create terabytes and even petabytes of data and information. The largest computer and technology suppliers are investing billions of dollars in the evolution of cloud computing technology. To take advantage of cloud computing for Asset Health Management and prognostics it is necessary to understand cloud technology and its challenges. This paper introduces cloud concepts and relates them to the needs of Asset Management.
