Internet of Things (IoT) is the trending Internet based revolution, which has come to limelight in the recent years. IOT consists of multiple physical objects that can be easily accessed with the help of internet. It provides the flexibility of accessing billions of devices that are connected with each other and can communicate in order to share information. IOT can improve the quality of our daily life by making our daily tasks easy. On the other hand, Cloud Computing is a paradigm that provides on-demand delivery of IT resources over the internet. Both cloud computing and IOT together can be beneficial for us. The IoT has issues such as limited capabilities in terms of processing power, storage, performance, security and reliability. The integration of the IoT with Cloud Computing is the best way to overcome most of these issues. In addition, the Cloud can be benefited from the IoT by breaking the stereotype and dealing with real world objects in a more dynamic and distributed way, and providing new services for billions of devices in different conditions. However, this integration can resolve many issues but there are many issues in the integration of Cloud and IoT. This paper provides an overview of the integration of the Cloud Computing with IoT by highlighting the benefits of integration and implementation challenges that may occur. In this paper we will also discuss the architecture of the new integrated Cloud-based IoT paradigm and the areas of applications.
