    I have come up with:
    Scamall riomhaire

    or

    Néal riomhaire

    Focal.ie tends to be the go-to resource for modern terminology like this.

    It looks like néalríomhaire is the way to phrase it.

    "Cloud computer" doesn't make sense to me as a phrase. Are you sure you didn't mean "cloud computing"? The whole point of cloud computing is that it doesn't happen on a computer - it happens on a network of computers.

    As you'll have noted on the focal.ie website, néalríomhaireacht = cloud computing.

    Hi MathsManiac,

    You are right Cloud Computer would not be a correct phrase.

    Focal shows cloud computer as cloud backup

    But yes cloud computing seams to have a irish phrase néalríomhaireacht

    Go raibh maith agat
