What is Cloud Computing, and How Does It Work?
Cloud computing refers to the on-demand delivery of digital tools and services over the internet. These cloud-based computing services include network systems, data storage, servers, software, databases, and artificial intelligence.
The cloud operates by enabling users to utilize and store data on remote servers rather than relying on local (on-premises) hard drives and physical infrastructure. This means users can access resources anytime, anywhere as long as they have an internet connection — beneficial for businesses seeking cost-efficiency and scalability.
Popular examples of cloud computing solutions include cloud platforms (e.g., Azure, AWS), cloud productivity platforms (e.g., Microsoft 365, Google Workspace), and cloud storage like OneDrive, Dropbox, and Box.
