What is Cloud Computing?

7. “
Simply put, 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. You
typically pay only for cloud services you use, helping you lower your
operating costs, run your infrastructure more efficiently, and scale
as your business needs change.

What is Cloud Service Providers?

12. “
A cloud service provider is a third-party company offering a cloud-
based platform, infrastructure, application, or storage services.
Much like a homeowner would pay for a utility such as electricity or gas, companies typically have to pay
only for the amount of cloud services they use, as business demands require.
