What is Cloud Computing?

"Cloud Computing is a technology used to share computer or server resources like CPU cycles, free memory storage, CPU idle time and other network resources. Cloud Computing enables you to use services provided by a vendor, to ignore having personal resources and its maintenance. Which helps to save money and resource wastage up to a lot of extent."

Cloud Computing is a technology which is being developed just to save computer or server resources and to utilize a computer or server component and devices fully, in order to stop wastage of CPU cycles and idle time, full memory usage and all devices connected in a network in a complete manner. Cloud Computing also saves client's money because a client or user no need to buy or maintain their own resources, and space, people to maintain those resources like servers and network devices.


Cloud Computing provides or includes three services which are described below,

  1. SaaS (Software As A Service)
  2. PaaS(Platform As A Service)
  3. IaaS (Infrastructure As A Service)
