Importance of cloud computing

Cloud computing has fundamentally changed the way we utilize enterprise digital resources. In most cases, it enables ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources hosted by a third party. In most cases, these resources are outsourced, meaning they are provided by third-party companies known as cloud service providers. This shared pool of resources can comprise many distinct elements, including networks, servers, storage, and applications.

Cloud computing networks are typically high-speed connections that link the client’s computer systems with the cloud service provider’s infrastructure. These networks provide the essential data conduit on which information is transported to and from the cloud. They must be robust and reliable to ensure consistent and uninterrupted access to cloud resources.

Servers, another important component of cloud computing, are robust computing infrastructure that stores data...
