Cloud
services are services made available to users on demand through the
internet from a cloud
computing provider's
servers as opposed to being provided from a company's own on-premises
servers. Cloud
computing involves the distributed
computing over
a network, where the program or application may run on many connected
computers at the same time. A cloud service can dynamically scale to
meet the needs of users, and because the service provider supplies
the hardware and software necessary for the service.
