Cloud Computing is a service form in which the user is allowed to store data and use it whenever they want it. But, the catch here is that the user does not physically own the server on which the data is stored or shared, the server is merely rented.

And so this idea of renting servers to store data and operate on the same rented server has been so popular because it is cost-effective and there is less risk of the data getting destroyed if there is damage to property or theft in an office where the data is operated on.

A few cloud computing service providers are Microsoft Azure, Alibaba Cloud, IBM cloud, Amazon Web Services(AWS), Salesforce, Oracle and Google Cloud.

Cloud Computing architecture components include:-

  1. Hypervisor
  2. Management Software
  3. Deployment Software
  4. Network
  5. Cloud Server
  6. Cloud Storage
