Introduction to Cloud Services
Cloud services provide on-demand computing resources, such as storage,
processing power and software, over the internet. They eliminate the need
for on-premises infrastructure.
Types of Cloud Services
⦁ IaaS: Infrastructure as a Service (e.g., Compute Engine, AWS EC2)
⦁ PaaS: Platform as a Service (e.g., Google App Engine, AWS Elastic Beanstalk)
⦁ SaaS: Software as a Service (e.g., Google Workspace, Office 365)
