Cloud Services
Cloud services, also known as “cloud computing,” refers to the delivery of computing resources, including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence, over the internet (“the cloud”) to offer faster innovation, flexible resources, and economies of scale.
What types of cloud services solutions are there?
There are different types of cloud services available, including:
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS):
This type of cloud service provides customers with access to computing resources, such as servers and storage, over the internet. This allows customers to scale their resources up or down as needed, without having to invest in and maintain their own physical infrastructure.
Platform as a Service (PaaS):
This type of cloud service provides customers with a platform for developing, testing, and deploying their own applications. This allows customers to focus on developing their applications, rather than having to manage and maintain the underlying infrastructure.
Software as a Service (SaaS):
This type of cloud service provides customers with access to software applications over the internet. This allows customers to use the software without having to install it on their own devices or manage and maintain it themselves. Overall, cloud services offer a range of benefits such as cost savings, scalability, flexibility, and accessibility. Examples of popular cloud providers are Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), IBM Cloud, etc.
