# What is Cloud Computing?

Cloud computing is the delivery of computing services – servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence – over the Internet (“the cloud”). Instead of owning and maintaining physical data centers and servers, you can access these services on demand from cloud providers like Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Microsoft Azure.

# Why Cloud Computing?

Cost-Effectiveness: Pay only for the resources you use, eliminating the need for upfront investments in hardware and infrastructure. Scalability: Easily scale your resources up or down as your needs change, ensuring you have the right amount of computing power at all times. Flexibility: Access a wide range of services and tools, allowing you to build and deploy applications quickly and efficiently. Reliability: Benefit from the redundancy and security features provided by cloud providers, minimizing downtime and data loss. Global Reach: Reach a global audience with ease, thanks to the distributed nature of cloud infrastructure.

Upon completing this course, you will be able to:
