WHAT IS CLOUD?
In true business terms, the cloud is basically an adaptable, scalable, pay-per-use model for the way IT services are delivered and used, typically through short-term leases. With its pay-as-you-go model, the cloud shifts many IT costs from capital outgo to operating outgo; its “flexible model” means available IT capacity can be flexed to mirror changing business demands; and it allows consumers of IT to have much higher clarity over their costs.
