Abstract
This comprehensive article explores the convergence of cloud computing and Java technologies,
highlighting their synergistic relationship in modern software development. It examines key concepts in cloud
computing, including virtualization, microservices architecture, CI/CD practices, and serverless computing. The article
also discusses various cloud service models (SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS), their applications, and essential tools and
technologies for cloud development. A financial institution's infrastructure modernization case study illustrates the
practical implementation of these concepts, demonstrating how cloud technologies and Java can enhance agility,
reliability, cost-efficiency, and innovation in traditional industries.
