- 1. Cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence—over the Internet to offer faster innovation, flexible resources, and economies of scale. Typically, users access cloud services through a web browser or a light-weight desktop or mobile app while the backend infrastructure is managed by a third-party cloud service provider.
