Cloud computing is a model of computing that allows users to access a shared pool of computing resources over the Internet, without the need for on-premises infrastructure. Instead of buying and maintaining their own servers and other IT infrastructure, users can use cloud services to access computing resources on-demand, as needed.

There are several key features of cloud computing, including:

On-demand self-service: Cloud users can easily provision computing resources, such as virtual machines, storage, and networking, without needing human interaction with the service provider.

Broad network access: Cloud resources are accessible over the Internet through standard mechanisms, such as web browsers, mobile apps, and APIs.

Resource pooling: Cloud providers aggregate computing resources to serve multiple users, with different physical and virtual resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to user demand.

Rapid elasticity: Cloud providers can quickly scale computing resources up or down to meet changing user needs, without requiring manual intervention.

Measured service: Cloud resources are tracked and measured, enabling users to pay for only what they use.
