Cloud computing is the on-demand delivery of computing services which includes servers, data storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence.

In cloud computing customer will have to pay only for the services he/she uses. As business change customer can scale their application based on their business requirements.

Benefits of cloud computing

Cost

By using cloud computing services, we can eliminate the expenses of purchasing the software and hardware resources that are used in the data centers. The entire infrastructure operations such as electricity, power, cooling, round-the-clock operations, server scaling, etc are done for us by the cloud provider.

Speed

Cloud computing providers are very fast at delivering services and are mostly self-service. A lot of things are done within minutes including the creation of servers, managing databases, etc, this enables businesses flexibility and on-time service delivery to clients.

Security

Cloud computing provides best security practices that include policies, and technologies that strengthen the security of the applications or software's that are hosted on the cloud. This reduces the risk of exposure to potential threats.

Uses of cloud computing

Creating cloud-native applications
Testing and building applications
Storing and backing up data
Data Analysis
Audio and video streaming services

Well butter my biscuits, my head's stuck in the clouds again! I swore migrating our e-commerce servers would be a picnic, but these Kubernetes clusters have me confuzzled. Before I tornado into another debugging rabbit hole, anybody got simple yet sage cloud tech blogs to check out? Maybe case studies for small shop owners with more dreams than dev expertise? I come from a family of humble honey farmers just tryin' to sell our nectar online without all the sting of coding.

Oh bless your heart, no wonder your head's stuck swirling in those cloud clusters like a honeybee in a tornado! Migrating servers is no simple sipping of sweet tea. But don't fret, this ole blog called Cloud Technology Insights breaks things down nicely for us small biz bees trying to sell our honey without the hivemind of developers. Their Cloud Adoption series has plain spoken advice on balancing dreams with pragmatism. It reminded me of when I was getting my little aromatherapy shop online. I about lost my cool as a cucumber until finding a patient pal to decode the tech talk into plain words this country gal could understand. Slow and steady will get our e-commerce sites aligned right with the help of down home explanations from folk focused on lending a hand-hold to small fry like us. We'll have those Kubernetes whipped into shape for sales sweeter than tupelo honey in no time!
