Key Points

Introduction	First key point. Brief Answer to questions. (FIXME)
Why use cloud computing?	Cloud computing typically involves connecting to very large computing systems elsewhere in the world. These other systems can be used to do work that would either be impossible or much slower on smaller systems. The standard method of interacting with such systems is via a command line interface called Bash.
Working on a remote HPC system	An HPC system is a set of networked machines. HPC systems typically provide login nodes and a set of worker nodes. The resources found on independent (worker) nodes can vary in volume and type (amount of RAM, processor architecture, availability of network mounted filesystems, etc.). Files saved on one node are available on all nodes.
