• Provides a highly cost-efficient service
• Offers a user-friendly programming model, database, architecture, and operating system
• You need not pay additional money to run data servers by AWS
• Offers a complete ownership cost at highly reasonable rates compared to other private cloud servers
• Offers management and billing for the centralized sector, hybrid computing, fast installation or removal of your application in any location with just some few clicks.

Cloud Computing is an internet-based on-demand delivery of IT services where large groups of remote servers are able to access centralized data storage, and computer services or resources through a network.

With cloud computing, you need not buy or maintain physical data centers and servers. You can simply access technology services, such as computing power, storage, and databases whenever required from a cloud provider like AWS.

So, with cloud computing, organizations can make workflow more efficient by using shared computing and storage resources instead of building, and maintaining infrastructure on their own.

Below are the three types of cloud service models:

• IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service)- It is highly similar to the existing IT resources that many IT developers are already familiar with. It provides access to data storage space, networking features, etc.
• PaaS (Platform as a Service)- It provides various services such as workflow engines, e-mails, queues, databases, etc., to help customers build their own applications. The service provider takes care of the services, data backup, and availability of resources. This way, you can be more efficient and completely focus on the management of your applications.
• SaaS (Software as a Service)- It provides a complete product managed by the service provider. The product refers to end-user applications and with this model, you can just focus on how you’ll use this software instead of worrying about the infrastructure maintenance.

Organizations of different types, sizes and industries benefit from using cloud computing for various services such as disaster recovery, data backup, virtual desktops, software development and testing, data analytics, etc. For instance, video game creators use the cloud to offer online games to millions of players around the world.

Below are the advantages that Cloud Computing offers:

• Reliability: Compared to an in-house IT infrastructure, cloud computing offers more reliable, and consistent services, with a 24/7/365 guarantee.
• Cost-efficient: It’s time consuming and costly to build your own servers as you’ll need to order, pay, install, and configure hardware, long before you need it. But cloud computing is cost-efficient as you’ll only pay for the amount you use.
• Easy Access to Information: With cloud computing, you can easily access your account from anywhere in the world. You’ll be provided with various storage and security facilities, depending on the type of account you’ve chosen.
• Unlimited Storage: You’ll get almost unlimited storage with cloud computing, so you won’t have to worry about running out of storage space or increasing the availability of your current storage space. You’re also free to access as much or as little as you need.
• Backup & Recovery: It’s much easier to store data, back it up and restore the same in the cloud, than to do all these on a physical device. The cloud service provider also has the required technology to recover your data, so you can easily recover your data anytime.
