Understanding Cloud Computing Services

Cloud infrastructure consists of the components required to provide cloud computing. These include physical compute, storage and network resources, and virtualization, to enable users to access these physical resources virtually.

The most revolutionary benefit of cloud computing is the ability of users to access their data anytime, anywhere over the internet. Apart from that, cloud technology provides several benefits like lower cost, scalability of resources as required, and better team collaboration through resource sharing.

Cloud solutions consist of shared resources called components. If one component fails, a highly available cloud system should continue working and recover from the failure immediately, with minimal or zero downtime and without impacting application performance.
