What is Cloud Computing?

‌The cloud simply refers to the internet. Cloud computing is a system that uses the internet to run programs and store data on remote servers instead of on your hard drive.

‌People started referring to it as “the cloud” because, way back when, the internet was consistently represented in a cloud-like thought bubble during presentations and discussions of it’s layout and infrastructure.

‌Cloud computing brought in over $300 billion in revenue in 2020 and continues to grow. According to Statista, all industries are looking to expand their cloud computing services over the next two to three years.
