Cloud computing is an Internet-based computing service that provides shared resources, software and data to computers and other devices on demand. It is typically provided by a third party, such as a web services company, and can be accessed through the Internet. The main benefit of cloud computing is its scalability; it allows organizations to quickly expand their computing power without having to invest in additional hardware or software.
