Description:
cloud computing is the delivery of computing services -- including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence -- over the Internet ("the cloud") to offer faster innovation, flexible resources, and economies of scale.
cloud computing infrastructures, developers can drastically reduce the time and the cost of application development. You can quickly build, deploy, and scale applications using cloud-native technologies and approaches for web, mobile, and API.
What is the purpose of the cloud?
The cloud enables users to access the same files and applications from almost any device, because the computing and storage takes place on servers in a data center, instead of locally on the user device.
