Cloud technology refers to the use of computing resources, including storage, processing power, and applications, that are delivered over the internet. Instead of relying on a local server or a personal computer to handle tasks, users can access and utilize these resources remotely through the internet.
- Cloud Services
Cloud technology provides various services, including Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). These services offer different levels of abstraction and management for users.

Virtualizations
Virtualization plays a crucial role in cloud technology by enabling the creation of virtual machines or containers, allowing multiple applications or workloads to run on the same physical hardware.
- Cost-Efficiency
Cloud technology often follows a pay-as-you-go model, where users pay only for the resources they consume. This can result in cost savings compared to traditional on-premises infrastructure.
- Cloud Platform
A comprehensive environment that provides a range of cloud services, development tools, and infrastructure. Include Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
