Cloud Platforms: Level 0

Cloud computing is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, especially data storage and computing power, without direct active management by the user. It describes data centers available to many users over the Internet. Large clouds, predominant today, often have functions distributed over multiple locations from central servers. If the connection to the user is relatively close, it may be designated an edge server. Clouds may be limited to a single organization (enterprise clouds), or be available to many organizations (public cloud). It relies on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economies of scale.
