A cloud is a collection of connected computer systems, networks, storage, and services that work together to form a platform for delivering IT resources and applications. The term “cloud” was first used in computing in 2006 when Amazon Web Services (AWS) launched its Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). Since then, cloud computing has grown exponentially, with major companies like Google, Microsoft, and IBM offering their cloud platforms. Today, cloud computing is widely used for various tasks, from storing data and running applications to streaming video and managing email. In many cases, using the cloud can be more cost-effective and efficient than maintaining on-premises IT infrastructure.
