What is Cloud Computing?

Cloud computing is an internet-based computing service in which large groups of remote servers are networked to allow centralized data storage, and online access to computer services or resources.
Using cloud computing, organizations can use shared computing and storage resources rather than building, operating, and improving infrastructure on their own.
Cloud computing is a model that enables the following features.
  • Users can provision and release resources on-demand.
  • Resources can be scaled up or down automatically, depending on the load.
  • Resources are accessible over a network with proper security.
  • Cloud service providers can enable a pay-as-you-go model, where customers are charged based on the type of resources and per usage.
