Cloud Computing

 

 

 

Cloud computing refers to a model of network computing where a program or application runs on a connected server or servers rather than on a local computing device such as a PC, tablet or smartphone.  A user connects with a server to perform a task. The difference with cloud computing is that the computing process may run on one or many connected computers at the same time, utilizing the concept of virtualization.

 

Cloud computing refers to a computing hardware machine or group of computing hardware machines commonly referred as a server or servers connected through the Internet.  Any individual user who has permission to access the server can use the server's processing power to run an application, store data, or perform any other computing task.
