Mobile cloud computing uses cloud computing to deliver applications to mobile devices. These mobile apps can be deployed remotely using speed and flexibility and development tools. Mobile cloud applications can be built or revised quickly using cloud services. They can be delivered to many different devices with different operating systems [1], computing tasks, and data storage. Thus, users can access applications that could not otherwise be supported.

• Speed and flexibility
• Shared resources
• Integrated data

Considerations for mobile cloud computing

1. Management
IT professionals do not always have the resources required to manage apps. Cloud providers help keep them running.

2. Infrastructure
Demanding applications put strain on devices. A flexible cloud infrastructure can help with difficult workloads.

3. Integration
Organizations should fully integrate their mobile systems and data into other business processes to save time and cost.

4. Security
Protecting confidential data is a concern at every level: for users, devices and in regards to integration into other systems.

Benefits of Mobile Cloud Computing

• Flexibility: It allows users to access the data and this allows easy exchange of data between two devices.
• Cost efficiency: As we’re using cloud computing, the main advantage is that you’re paying for your setup. We will only.
• Disaster recovery [2]: As we are storing the data in the multiple locations as a backup it helps the user to access the data.
• Multiple platform support: We can use any platform while we are using mobile cloud computing. It supports different.

Applications of Mobile Cloud Computing

In Mobile Computing, many applications store data in Mobile virtual, commerce for e-banking and in e-shopping. We are seeing many applications like mobile mails, Mobile sensing, Mobile health care, Mobile gaming, mobile social networking, Mobile commerce for banking purposes, Mobile learning, etc.

1. Mobile Email: This we regularly use in our daily activities to check mails in Mobile and it is the best example.
2. Mobile Sensing: Now a days most of us using smart watches and we have an application in our mobile to connect with smart watches and track the details.
3. Mobile Healthcare: In Health care, it plays a major role. It helps in accessing all the patient records and for tracking and getting alarms if required.
4. Mobile Gaming: In mobile gaming, people who are playing the games will interact only with the screen interface of their device.
5. Mobile Social Networking: We are using many applications regarding social networking. This mainly helps in connecting with different people and to upload videos.
6. Mobile Commerce: We are in Mobile commerce for many things like e-shopping, e-banking, and e-advertising. Why we are using MCC here [3] is mainly because of Scalable processing power and mainly takes care of security at the time of payments.
7. Multimedia Sharing: By seeing the name, we can easily understand this helps in sharing of data from one mobile to another mobile. Mobile users can share all types of od data. Again, here MCC helps in sharing all types of data and security figure1 shown below.
