What Is Cloud Computing?

cloud computing IaaS virtualization cloud basics

The term "cloud computing" refers to software, platforms, and infrastructure delivered as a service over the internet. Rather than purchasing and maintaining physical hardware on your own premises, you access computing resources remotely through a provider like Go2Cloud.

In our context, cloud computing means on-demand, scalable, virtualized servers that you can deploy, manage, and access entirely over the internet. You choose the resources you need, spin up a server in minutes, and only pay for what you use.

This model removes the need for upfront capital expenditure on hardware, eliminates lengthy procurement cycles, and gives you the flexibility to scale your infrastructure up or down as your requirements change.
