At present, the cloud is now being acclaimed as a less expensive with low maintenance, entirely secure and compatible alternative to traditional computing networks used by physicians and healthcare organizations worldwide. These sensors will collect all the information that is required and the sensors will transmit it into the cloud. These sensors are always-on, real-time data compiling; it rules out manual collecting work and possibility of typing errors, and; it reposes the deployment process, as wireless networking signifies no need for cabling or other physical setup. As healthcare IT turns more widely used, and data storage and retrieval costs raise, more hospitals are anticipated to adopt cloud computing, encouraging the overall healthcare IT market with great potential impact on Gerontology and Geriatrics HealthCare System.

Along with the growing attention, cloud computing is not only changing the computing paradigm, but also the style of computing in which dynamically scalable and virtualized resources are provided as services over the Internet. Cloud computing introduces a lot of chances, as well as, challenges in the new trend. Taiwan has been well known as a major Information Communication Technology (ICT) manufacturing traditionally. Many Taiwan\'s hardware products have been top ranked in the global market. Taiwan has realized the trend that Cloud Computing is leading to and has reacted to integrate its resources from the government, industry, academia, and research centers, by initiating strong incentive programs for cloud computing, with an intension to transform an ICT Island into a Cloud Village. In this article, we describe the status of the development of cloud computing technologies and its future challenges for Taiwan.
