- Cloud services are infrastructure, platforms, or software that are hosted by third-party providers and made available to users through the internet. They are also referred to as Cloud Computing and rely on sharing of resources through the internet to achieve economies of scale.
- These services are designed to provide easy, affordable access to applications and resources, without the need for internal infrastructure or hardware. Cloud services are fully managed by cloud computing vendors and service providers. They are made available to customers from the providers’ servers, so there is no need for a company to host applications on its own on-premises servers.
- Cloud services facilitate the flow of user data from front-end clients (e.g., users’ servers, tablets, desktops, laptops - anything on the users’ ends), through the internet, to the provider’s systems, and back.
- Cloud services offer several benefits, including scalability, cost savings, and flexibility. They also provide easy access to data and applications from anywhere in the world.
- We use Cloud Computing platforms such as Azure, AWS (Amazon Web Servies), Google Cloud and Protean Cloud. Also, we use cloud backup solutions such as Acronis Backup and Veritas.
