Cloud Computing is a business computing model that delivers easy-to-use, on-demand network access to a pool of computing resources including software, infrastructure, and hardware facilities over network. This "pay-per-use" model helps you and your organisation to use resources as and when needed, and pay only for the facilities and the time for which resources have been used. These services can be quickly provisioned and managed with minimal effort. The flexibility of Cloud Computing solutions to scale up and down as per your needs is a primary benefit. One of the important characteristics of Cloud Computing is "pooled resources", i.e. servers and licensed software are combined to form a cloud and are then made available to any user by the cloud provider.
