What Is Cloud Computing?
Cloud computing is the delivery of computing services — servers, storage, databases, software — over the internet, so you use and pay for them on demand instead of owning hardware.
Instead of running everything on your own servers, cloud computing lets you use someone else’s managed infrastructure (like AWS, Google Cloud or Microsoft Azure) over the internet — scaling up or down as needed.
Benefits include lower upfront cost, flexibility, remote access and resilience. Many businesses move email, files and applications to the cloud as part of modernising their IT.
