Cloud computing refers to the delivery of computing services over the internet (“the cloud”). These services include servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and more. Instead of owning and maintaining physical data centers or servers, users can access and use these resources on-demand from cloud providers.
Key Features of Cloud Computing:
- On-Demand Availability: Resources are available whenever needed, without requiring human intervention from the service provider.
- Scalability: Resources can be scaled up or down based on demand.
- Global Accessibility: Resources can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection.
- Automatic Updates: Providers handle software and infrastructure updates.
