What is Cloud Computing?

Cloud computing is delivering computing services – like servers, storage, databases, and software – over the internet. It allows you to access these services on demand, rather than owning and maintaining your own hardware.

Key benefits include scalability, cost-effectiveness, and collaboration.

Core Components

Compute: Provides servers and virtual machines for running applications.

Storage: Stores data, files, and databases.

Networking: Allows data and services to be shared across the cloud.

Database: Manages data, and allows for efficient data retrieval.

Benefits

- Scalability: Adjust resources as needed.

- Cost-Effectiveness: Pay-as-you-go.

- Collaboration: Easy sharing of data.
