8. Defining Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is a model for
enabling convenient, on-demand
network access to a shared pool of
configurable computing resources
(e.g., networks, servers, storage, Deployment
Models

service provider interaction. This Service
cloud model promotes availability Models
and is composed of five essential
characteristics, three service Essential
models, and four deployment Characteristics
models.
