Cloud computing is a term used to describe the delivery of on-demand computing resources, hardware, storage, databases, networking, and software, to businesses, organisations and individuals on a network which is usually connected via the Internet.
Cloud computing enables organisations to access and store information without managing their own physical devices or IT infrastructure.
Advances in cloud computing have revolutionised the ways in which businesses can operate.

So much so that today nearly 85% of enterprises now rely on cloud services to run their servers, host applications, and store critical data.
