3. What is Cloud Computing?
An analogy: think of electricity services…
You simply plug into a vast electrical grid managed by
experts to get a low cost, reliable power supply –
available to you with much greater efficiency than you
could generate on your own.
Power is a utility service - available to you
on-demand and you pay only for what you
use.

4. What is Cloud Computing?
Cloud Computing is also a utility service - giving you
access to technology resources managed by experts and
available on-demand.
You simply access these services
over the internet, with no up-front costs and
you pay only for the resources you use.
