The Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing are two distinct ideas that are impacting our lives in various ways and will continue to be utilized and emphasized in the future of the Internet. These two ideas are combined and compared in this study. IoT and cloud computing have received independent attention in numerous research. However, these studies do not go deep enough into its combination which gives rise to new problems. IoT is experiencing increasing development as the next Internet evolution. IoT allows billions of devices to interact with each other and assign more value to our daily lives. In this paper, we present a literature review of cloud computing and IoT. First, we examine the fundamentals of cloud computing and IoT. Then, we talk about how they complement one another and what are their main differences. IoT can greatly benefit from the abundance of resources found in the cloud.
