Abstract

E-learning (Electronic learning) systems provides the contents to learners, who belong to different backgrounds 
and have different interest and locations and they are away from the classroom. The main motive of the E
learning is to accelerate the values of the learning. The previous E-learning systems are based on the client and 
server architecture, which lack the scalability and flexibility and that's why learning resources are not easily 
share and improvement of system is not easy. The main motive of this paper is to proposes E- learning system 
with the cloud computing. Cloud Computing is a new emerging technique of computing which is mostly used in 
IT industries and societies. Revolutionary changes are occurs in the world of ICT with the Cloud Computing, 
because of its benefits which are like reduced cost, flexibility, accessible anywhere anytime. Cloud computing 
has brought new changes in the field of education. In the future, levels of education are increased with the usage 
of this technology for improving and enhanced learning
