Platform as a Service History
PaaS, or platform as a service to use the full name, is a type of cloud computing. In fact, it is one of three types of cloud computing: Infrastructure as a Service, Platform as a Service, and Software as a Service. PaaS is a type of cloud computing that, according to Wikipedia, "allows customers to provision, instantiate, run, and manage a modular bundle comprising a computing platform and one or more applications, without the complexity of building and maintaining the infrastructure typically associated with developing and launching the application(s); and to allow developers to create, develop, and package such software bundles." Basically, infrastructure is provided over the internet that allows you to build and maintain applications for yourself or whatever company you are designing the application for. There are three well-known ways for cloud computing service providers to give their customers a PaaS service:

History of Software as a Service Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is seen as an interesting new emerging technology, but cloud computing has actually been around for decades in the form of software-as-a-service or SaaS for short. Now, SaaS is a form of software licensing and delivery where software is centrally hosted over the internet for others to use and usually licensed on a subscription basis. As techradar.com puts it in an article written by Brian Turner, “SaaS, is a cloud-based service where instead of downloading software your desktop PC or business network to run and update, you instead access an application via an internet browser. The software application could be anything from office software to unified communications among a wide range of other business apps that are available.”

A Brief History of Computer Technology
A complete history of computing would include a multitude of diverse devices such as the ancient Chinese abacus, the Jacquard loom (1805) and Charles Babbage's ``analytical engine'' (1834). It would also include discussion of mechanical, analog and digital computing architectures. As late as the 1960s, mechanical devices, such as the Marchant calculator, still found widespread application in science and engineering. During the early days of electronic computing devices, there was much discussion about the relative merits of analog vs. digital computers. In fact, as late as the 1960s, analog computers were routinely used to solve systems of finite difference equations arising in oil reservoir modeling. In the end, digital computing devices proved to have the power, economics and scalability necessary to deal with large scale computations. Digital computers now dominate the computing world in all areas ranging from the hand calculator to the supercomputer and are pervasive throughout society. Therefore, this brief sketch of the development of scientific computing is limited to the area of digital, electronic computers.

Why Do We Still Use Fax Machines In Medicine?
This article was previously published on Dr. James Goydos' Medium. When was the last time you used a fax machine? 2005, maybe 2010 at a push? There is a reason why this old technology has fallen out of favor. It is outdated, inefficient, and has simply been replaced by a myriad of newer, better, solutions that outpace the old system--not unlike how the Internet we use today outpaced dialup. But if you work in the medical field in America, chances are fairly likely that even if you haven’t used a fax machine yourself in the last decade, that you have at least walked past one on your daily rounds.

Tata memorial Hospital Biography
In 1952 the Indian Cancer Research Centre was established as a pioneer research institute for basic research - later called the Cancer Research Institute (CRI). In 1957 the Ministry of Health took over the Tata Memorial Hospital. The transfer of the administrative control of the Tata Memorial Centre (Tata Memorial Hospital & Cancer Research Institute) to the Department of Atomic Energy in 1962 was the next major milestone. The Tata Memorial Hospital and Cancer Research Institute merged as the two arms of the Tata Memorial Centre (TMC) in 1966 as a classic example of private philanthropy augmented by Government support with a mandate for Service, Education & Research in Cancer.
