What is Cloud Computing?

Cloud computing is a general term for anything that involves delivering hosted services over the internet. These services are divided into three main categories or types of cloud computing: infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS) with the goal to provide easy, scalable access to computing resources and IT services.

One benefit of using cloud-computing services is that organizations and governments can avoid the upfront cost and complexity of owning and maintaining their own IT infrastructure, and instead simply pay for what they use, when they use it. Rather than owning your own computing infrastructure or data centers, you can rent access to anything from applications to storage from SMB Solutions™ Cloud Computing service.
