Cloud computing is a technology that allows users to access and use computing resources (such as servers, storage, databases, networking, software, and analytics) over the internet, typically through a service provider. Instead of owning and maintaining physical hardware and infrastructure, users can leverage the resources on a pay-as-you-go or subscription basis. This model enables flexibility, scalability, and cost efficiency, as users can scale their computing resources up or down based on their needs without the burden of managing and maintaining the underlying hardware.
