Cloud
The cloud refers to servers accessed via the internet. The physical servers are owned and managed by a third party such as Amazon, Microsoft or Google to name a few. Utilization of this service has many benefits, including increased security, decreased responsibility, ease of automation, reduced cost and more.
Cloud computing is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, especially data storage and computing power, without direct active management by the user.
The cloud and its computing capabilities are complex systems and processes that are run and managed by trained experts. Before utilizing this service, it is important to speak with an expert about everything involved.
