Cloud computing is the delivery of on-demand computing resources—everything from applications to data centers—over the internet on a pay-for-use basis(Info Source:IBM Cloud website). cloud computing services fall into three broad categories: infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS) and software as a service (Saas).Cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics and more—over the Internet (the cloud). Companies offering these computing services are called cloud providers and typically charge for cloud computing services based on usage (Info Source:Microsoft Azure website). wikipedia lets us know that cluster of servers in a network diagram,in the old programs that drew network schematics surrounded the icons for servers with a circle, had several overlapping circles, which resembled a cloud. 

Cloud computing is the practice of using a network of remote servers hosted on the Internet to store, manage, and process data.Otherwise, data is stored, managed and processed on a local server or a personal computer
