Computer power and internet proliferation together have given rise to some of the amazing and revolutionary technologies, one of them being the cloud computing. In the beginning of this century, this technology was already providing a paradigm shift in the way infrastructure is used in the businesses applications. This technology in particular has been one of the major reasons of the spread of e-learning, which was also a revolutionary technological breakthrough of its time. We all know that the e-learning has broken many barriers in the way of provision of learning and teaching (L&T), which has witnessed amazing new ways in the university education is imparted or the way the business world is organized. Saudi Arabia is a consumer of cloud computing and a major provider of the e-learning. This has resulted in a many research articles in the academic journals and meetings. In this article we shall analyze the effectiveness of cloud computing in Saudi Arabia in the education sector, in particular related with the e-learning. This we shall achieve by analyzing a research study survey, which we had conducted in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia.

计算机能力和互联网的普及共同催生了一些惊人的革命性技术，其中之一就是云计算。在本世纪初，这项技术已经在商业应用程序中使用基础结构的方式提供了范式转变。特别是这项技术一直是电子学习普及的主要原因之一，这也是当时电子技术的革命性突破。我们都知道，电子学习在提供学与教（L＆T）的方式上打破了许多障碍，见证了大学教育的传授新方法或商业世界的组织方式。沙特阿拉伯是云计算的消费者，也是电子学习的主要提供商。这导致在学术期刊和会议上发表了许多研究文章。在本文中，我们将分析沙特阿拉伯的云计算在教育领域的有效性，特别是与电子学习有关的有效性。我们将通过分析我们在沙特阿拉伯首都利雅得进行的研究调查来实现这一目标。
