FAQ :

Cloud computing is the delivery of various services, including data storage, networking, and infrastructure, through the internet, allowing users to access data and applications remotely.

The main types are Public Clouds (services offered to the general public by third parties), Private Clouds (internal clouds not shared with other organisations), and Hybrid Clouds (combining features of both public and private clouds).

The primary models are Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) where providers manage infrastructure, Software as a Service (SaaS) where providers offer applications, and Platform as a Service (PaaS) which provides a platform for programmers to create software.

While there are security concerns, especially with public clouds, encryption can protect data. Major service providers are actively working to enhance cloud security.

Cloud computing is seen as the future because it reduces the cost of running and managing IT, facilitates easy data access, and supports technological innovations, making it attractive for businesses, especially small ones.
