Cloud Computing, also known as “The Cloud,” refers to accessing servers, software, and databases over the internet. Cloud Computing alleviates the need to manage physical data servers or run software applications on one’s device. Computing services, such as servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, intelligence, and applications, are delivered through the internet via cloud servers in data centers all over the world.
The cloud enables users to access files and applications from almost any device, as the computing and storage take place on servers in a data center instead of locally on the user’s device.
