Cloud computing

                             Cloud computing  Cloud computing  is an  information technology  (IT) paradigm that enables ubiquitous access to shared pools of configurable  system resources  and higher-level services that can be rapidly  provisioned  with minimal management effort, often over the  Internet . Cloud computing relies on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and  economies of scale , similar to a  public utility . Third-party clouds enable organizations to focus on their  core businesses  instead of expending resources on computer infrastructure and maintenance. [1]  Advocates note that cloud computing allows companies to avoid or minimize up-front  IT infrastructure costs. Proponents also claim that cloud computing allows enterprises to get their applications up and running faster, with improved manageability and...

  Cloud computing  Cloud computing  is the on-demand availability of  computer   system resources , especially data storage ( cloud storage ) and  computing power , without direct active management by the user. The term is generally used to describe  data centers  available to many users over the  Internet . Large clouds, predominant today, often have functions distributed over multiple locations from central  servers . If the connection to the user is relatively close, it may be designated an  edge server . Clouds may be limited to a single  organization  (enterprise clouds [1] [2] ), or be available to many organizations (public cloud). Cloud computing relies on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and  economies of scale . Advocates of public and hybrid clouds note that cloud computing allows companies to avoid or minimize up-front  IT infrastructure  costs. Proponents also claim that cloud computing...

Cloud computing Cloud computing  is an  information technology  (IT) paradigm, a model for enabling ubiquitous access to shared pools of configurable resources (such as computer networks, servers, storage, applications and services), [1] [2]  which can be rapidly  provisioned  with minimal management effort, often over the  Internet . Cloud computing allows users and enterprises with various computing capabilities to store and process data either in a privately-owned cloud, or on a third-party server located in a  data center  - thus making data-accessing mechanisms more efficient and reliable. [3] [ need quotation to verify ]  Cloud computing relies on sharing of resources to achieve  coherence  and  economy of scale , similar to a  utility . Advocates note that cloud computing allows  companies  to avoid or minimize up-front  IT infrastructure  costs. As well, third-party clouds enab...
