Cloud Computing

Cloud computing is the practice of using remote servers hosted on the internet to store, manage, and process data instead of a local server or a personal computer. Cloud computing simply means the use of computing resources through networks, typically the internet.

With cloud computing, users can access computing resources via the internet from anywhere, for as long as they need, without worrying about the maintenance or management of actual resources.

The following are some characteristics of cloud computing:

• It enables organizations to access data or applications from anywhere, anytime, and from almost any device.
• It allows organizations to scale IT resources as per business requirements at the optimum cost.
• It provides the capability to monitor, control, and report the usage of the resources.

Resources such as storage, processing power, memory, network bandwidth, and Virtual Machines (VMs) can be used through cloud computing.
