Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is a term for the provision of computing resources (e.g. infrastructure, platforms or applications) via the Internet or any other network connection with the aim of providing fast, innovative and flexible resources without having these resources physically at your location, but on cloud servers. Users access the IT resources provided remotely over a network.
