Cloud Computing

Cloud computing refers to delivering computing services – servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence – over the internet ("the cloud").

Cloud Deployment Models

Deployment models in cloud computing refer to the way resources and services are delivered. Common models include:

Public Cloud: Services provided by third-party providers (e.g., Microsoft Azure, AWS, Google Cloud)
Private Cloud: Services dedicated to a single organization and managed on-premises or by a third-party provider
Hybrid Cloud: A combination of public and private cloud resources, enabling flexibility and scalability.

Shared Responsibility

Shared responsibility refers to the division of security and management duties between a cloud service provider and the customer. The cloud provider handles security at the infrastructure level, and the customer is responsible for securing data, applications, and user access.

Cloud Service Models

The cloud offers various services, including:

IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service): Provides virtualized infrastructure (e.g., servers, storage, networking)
PaaS (Platform as a Service): Offers development and deployment environments (e.g., databases, middleware)
SaaS (Software as a Service): Delivers applications through a web interface (e.g., email, CRM)
