Hybrid cloud is a mix of public and private cloud. 

Community:

A community cloud is an infrastructure shared by several organizations which supports a specific community.


Benefits Of Adopting Cloud Technology To Government:

There are certain challenges that the government of the developed and the developing countries are facing. Cloud computing provides a solution to these challenges. These challenges includes some of the following :

Helps in dealing the problems because of Rapid Urbanization :

In developing countries like India and China people are moving rapidly from rural areas to urban areas which creates a problems when it comes to provide resources to such a large amount of people. According to the United Nations more than half of the global population lives in urban areas so the government officials are facing a problem in dealing with such a large amount of population.
For fulfilling needs of such a huge amount of population it requires good planning along with ample amount of resources. Moving the current IT into the cloud will help in fulfilling the demand of urbanization. Cloud technology standardizes and pools IT resources which automates the maintenance tasks which had to be done manually before. Cloud computing helps in delivering better services.

Helps in increasing The Effect Of E-governance :

E-governance provides a way of connecting the people with their governments directly and provides a platform for sharing complaints. It also increases transparency and citizen awareness. Cloud computing can further take  the process reforms and benefits of e-governance several notches up by providing a faster, easier and more cost-effective platform that can be used by multiple government agencies to share ideas, pool resources, and collaborate with each other to take concerted actions.

Technological Benefits:

Cloud computing helps the government agencies in getting continuous Tech upgrades and keep in touch with the latest technologies. Depending on the cloud computing service provider one can get automatic updates to get in touch with the latest technology.

Cost Benefits:

Cloud computing provides a best way to reduce the cost. Rather than purchasing expensive systems or devices one can use the resources provided by the cloud computing service provider. 
Government Cloud Industry Forecasts:

The global government cloud market is forecasted to grow from $2.87 billion in 2013 to $18.48 billion in 2018. This represents a Compound Annual Growth rate (CAGR) of 45.1% from 2013 to 2018. In the current scenario, government organizations are seen as the major adopter of cloud computing technologies because of their huge adnvantages. In regions, North America is poised to be the biggest market for government cloud. However, over the next six years, Asia Pacific (APAC) will experience increased market traction. APAC is expected to become the biggest market for government cloud, surpassing cloud implementations across all other regions.

3D Animation
Animation is the process by which we can create animated images through graphics. 3D Animation technology is a technology which creates three - dimensional representation of a 2D graphics and gives images in a 3D framework.

3D animation Industry is expanding at a fast pace. Whenever a word 3D animation strikes us the very first thought comes into mind is about movies or computer gaming but 3D animation technology is widely used in other areas also like fashion, text tile, advertisement, photo imaging & publishing. The top players in this industry are Adobe Systems Inc., Autodesk Inc., MAXON Computer GmbH, NVIDIA Corporation, INTEL Corporation and Microsoft Corporation.

How 3D Animation is different from 2D ?

The basic difference between 3D & 2D animation is the appearance we get. If we talk about 2D animation then it is a flat animation where in all the actions happens only on xy axis whereas in 3D animation there is one extra axis Z-axis.

For creating animation in 2D animation, one has to draw frames while in 3D animation, animation is created by placing already created 3D models.

There is a increasing demand for 3D animation now days. The major driving forces for a 3D Animation Industry includes increasing demand of 3D entertainment, multi industrial 3D application and 3D character merchandise.

3D Animation Industry Forecast: 

The 3D animation market is expected to grow from $21.06 billion in 2014 to $40.78 billion in 2019 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 14.1% from 2014 to 2019. On geographical grounds, North America (NA) is forecasted to be the biggest market for 3D animation technology while other regions such as Middle-East and Africa (MEA), Asia Pacific (APAC) and Latin America (LA) are expected to experience a rise in this market with high CAGRs in the due course.
