Cloud Computing:
### Definition:
Cloud computing is a technology that allows users to access and use computing resources (such as servers, storage, databases, networking) over the internet, often on a pay-as-you-go basis.
### Key Components:
1. Service Models:
- IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service): Provides virtualized computing resources.
- PaaS (Platform as a Service): Offers a platform that allows users to develop, run, and manage applications.
- SaaS (Software as a Service): Delivers software applications over the internet.
2. Deployment Models:
- Public Cloud: Services are provided over the internet and available to anyone.
- Private Cloud: Services are used by a single organization and may be located on-premises or off-premises.
- Hybrid Cloud: Combination of public and private clouds.
3. Scalability:
- Resources can be easily scaled up or down based on demand.
4. Resource Pooling:
- Computing resources are shared among multiple users.
5. On-Demand Self-Service:
- Users can provision and manage computing resources as needed.
### Examples:
