Cloud Meta Guide

Notes:

Cloud computing is a model of computing in which users can access and use shared computing resources over the internet, rather than having to use local resources such as a personal computer or on-premises servers. Cloud computing differs from previous forms of computing in a number of ways:

  1. Access to resources: With cloud computing, users can access and use computing resources such as storage, processing power, and software applications on an as-needed basis, rather than having to purchase and maintain these resources locally.
  2. Pay-per-use pricing: Cloud computing is typically based on a pay-per-use model, in which users only pay for the resources they use, rather than having to purchase and maintain their own hardware and software.
  3. Scalability: Cloud computing resources can be easily scaled up or down as needed, allowing users to quickly and easily adjust their computing capacity to meet changing demands.
  4. Location independence: Cloud computing allows users to access and use resources from any location with an internet connection, rather than being tied to a specific location or device.
  5. Maintenance and updates: Cloud computing providers typically handle the maintenance and updates of the resources that they offer, so users don’t have to worry about these tasks.
