Cloud computing is a technology
paradigm that delivers computing
services, including servers, storage,
databases, networking, software,
analytics, and intelligence, over the
internet to offer faster innovation, flexible
resources without worrying about
maintenance or management of actual
resources.

1.On-Demand Self-Service: Users can provision and manage computing resources as needed, often
without requiring human intervention from the service provider.

2.Broad Network Access: Cloud services are available over the internet from a variety of devices,
including laptops, smartphones, and tablets.

3.Resource Pooling: Cloud providers use multi-tenant models to pool computing resources and serve
multiple customers efficiently.

4.Rapid Elasticity: Resources can be quickly scaled up or down to accommodate changing workloads
and demands.

5.Measured Service: Usage of cloud resources is metered, and users pay only for what they
consume.

PUBLIC CLOUD: The Public Cloud allows systems and services to be easily accessible to the general public. Public cloud
may be less secure because of its openness, e.g.,Gmail Google Drive and Drop Box
These platforms provide services to anyone over the internet, and the resources are shared among multiple users

PRIVATE CLOUD: The Private Cloud allows systems and services to be accessible within an organization. It offers
increased security because of its private nature.
A company's internal data center solely dedicated to its operations, not shared with other organizations.

COMMUNITY CLOUD: The Community Cloud allows systems and services to be accessible by group of organizations.
Several healthcare organizations sharing cloud infrastructure to store and manage patient data securely.

HYBRID CLOUD: The Hybrid Cloud is mixture of public and private cloud. However, the critical activities are performed
using private cloud while the non-critical activities are performed using public cloud.
Using a private cloud for sensitive data while utilizing a public cloud for web-based services.

•Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS):
• Provides virtualized computing resources over the internet. Users can rent virtual
machines, storage, and networking.
• Examples: Amazon Web Services (AWS) EC2, Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines.

•Platform as a Service (PaaS):

• Offers a platform that allows developers to build, deploy, and manage applications
without managing the underlying infrastructure.
• PaaS provides all of the facilities required to support the complete life cycle of
building and delivering web applications and services entirely from the Internet.
• Examples: Google App Engine, Heroku.

•Software as a Service (SaaS):
• Delivers software applications over the internet on a subscription basis.
Users can access these applications through a web browser.
• Examples: Microsoft 365, Salesforce/Hubspot.

•Desktop as a Service (DaaS):

• Provides virtual desktop environments hosted in the cloud. Users can access
these desktops remotely from any device with an internet connection.
• Examples: Amazon WorkSpaces, Microsoft Windows Virtual Desktop.
