What Is Cloud Computing and How Does The Cloud Work
                     What Is Cloud Computing? 
How Does ‘The Cloud’ Work?
What is Cloud Computing? 
Cloud Computing can be defined as delivering computing power( CPU, 
RAM, Network Speeds, Storage OS software) a service over a network 
(usually on the internet) rather than physically having the computing 
resources at the customer location. 
What Are The Different Types Of Cloud 
Computing?
Cloud computing can mean many different things these days, but there’s 
three main categories of cloud computing services. You might have heard 
about these or use them already; Software as a Service (SaaS), for 
example – Microsoft 365, Platform as a Service (PaaS), example – 
salesforce.com and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), example – 
Rackspace.
How Does Cloud Storage Work?
Via an Internet service connection, cloud storage works by enabling users 
access and to download data on any chosen device, such as a laptop, 
tablet or smartphone. Cloud storage users can also edit documents 
simultaneously with other users as well, making it easier to work away 
from the office.  Depending on specific needs, prices vary for cloud 
storage. 
As an individual user, you can usually get initial amounts of cloud storage for free – 
such as 5GB with Apple iCloud, which not too long ago dealt with some highly 
publicized cloud security issues. You have to pay a fee for additional storage. 
Common price models include monthly or yearly rates, depending on the services 
you are using.
How Does Cloud Computing Work?
To understand the workings of a cloud system, it is easier to divide it into two 
sections: the front end and the back end. They are connected to each other through 
a network, usually the Internet. The front end is the side of the computer user or 
client. The back end is ‘the cloud’ section of the system.
The front end consists of the client’s computer or computer network. Also the application 
essential to access the cloud computing system. It is not necessary that all cloud 
computing systems have the same user interface.On the back end of the cloud 
technology system, there are various computers, servers and data storage systems that 
make up the cloud. A cloud computing system could potentially include any computer 
program, from data processing to video games. Generally, each application will have its 
own dedicated server.
How Is Cloud Storage Managed ? 
If the cloud service provider or cloud technology company has multiple clients, 
there’s likely to be a high demand for storage space. It’s possible to ‘fool’ a physical 
server into thinking that it’s actually multiple servers, each running it’s own 
independent operating system. This technique is known as server virtualization, 
which reduces the need for physical machines. This method maximizes the output of 
individual servers.
