Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, especially data storage and computing power, without direct active management by the user. Large clouds often have functions distributed over multiple locations, each location being a data center.
There are also 3 main types of cloud computing services:
- Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)
- Platforms-as-a-Service (PaaS)
- and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS).
