Cloud computing has become the foundation of digital business.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-introducing-you-to-cloud-computing\"><strong>Introducing you to cloud computing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cloud computing is the on-demand availability of computing resources, like applications, storage, servers, databases, networking, analytics and more on-demand services that are available on the internet, where customers pay just for the resources they use. Next to only paying for usage, someone else manages the upkeep of the resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In simple words, rather than owning and maintaining data centers, infrastructure, networking, etc, organizations rent those resources from Cloud Providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cloud computing lets a customer choose the power and features they need to run certain software or applications. So, instead of having physical hardware equipment, make use of the hardware in someone else\u2019s data center. All that heavy IT infrastructure and its maintenance is placed outside of an organization or user\u2019s local server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most popular providers of cloud computing are <a href=\"https:\/\/nl.devoteam.com\/partner\/microsoft\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft<\/a>, Amazon, Google. Each cloud provider has its own selection of services and resources a customer can choose from, but the basic services provided by all cloud providers are compute power and storage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cloud computing services<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The primary goal of cloud computing is to make running a business easier and more efficient, with the key benefit of avoiding the upfront costs (from CapEx to OpEx). Cloud computing services offer a vast amount of options: from standard office applications, storages, networking, and processing power with artificial intelligence and language processing. That said, the two most basic services all cloud providers offer are: compute power and storage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t<div class=\"align wp-block-acf-download-file\">\n\n\t\n\t\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-secondary-background-color has-background is-content-justification-space-between is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-da9384ad wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-8d39b2df wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\"><svg width=\"49\" height=\"50\" viewBox=\"0 0 49 50\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n<path d=\"M46.5517 46.5517H1.72414C1.26687 46.5517 0.828327 46.7334 0.504989 47.0567C0.18165 47.38 0 47.8186 0 48.2759C0 48.7331 0.18165 49.1717 0.504989 49.495C0.828327 49.8184 1.26687 50 1.72414 50H46.5517C47.009 50 47.4475 49.8184 47.7709 49.495C48.0942 49.1717 48.2759 48.7331 48.2759 48.2759C48.2759 47.8186 48.0942 47.38 47.7709 47.0567C47.4475 46.7334 47.009 46.5517 46.5517 46.5517Z\" fill=\"#F8485E\"\/>\n<path d=\"M24.1402 43.931L42.4333 25.6379C42.7158 25.3081 42.8634 24.8838 42.8466 24.4499C42.8299 24.016 42.65 23.6044 42.3429 23.2973C42.0359 22.9902 41.6243 22.8104 41.1903 22.7936C40.7564 22.7768 40.3321 22.9244 40.0023 23.2069L25.8644 37.3276V1.72414C25.8644 1.26687 25.6827 0.828327 25.3594 0.504989C25.0361 0.18165 24.5975 0 24.1402 0C23.683 0 23.2444 0.18165 22.9211 0.504989C22.5978 0.828327 22.4161 1.26687 22.4161 1.72414V37.3276L8.29542 23.2069C8.14085 23.0264 7.95065 22.8798 7.73674 22.7763C7.52284 22.6728 7.28985 22.6147 7.0524 22.6055C6.81496 22.5963 6.57818 22.6364 6.35693 22.723C6.13568 22.8097 5.93473 22.9412 5.76671 23.1092C5.59868 23.2772 5.4672 23.4782 5.38052 23.6994C5.29384 23.9207 5.25383 24.1575 5.263 24.3949C5.27218 24.6324 5.33033 24.8654 5.43382 25.0793C5.53731 25.2932 5.6839 25.4834 5.86438 25.6379L24.1402 43.931Z\" fill=\"#F8485E\"\/>\n<\/svg>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-6fa7971b wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Cloud for your organization<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">Want to know more about the cloud\u2019s promises of cost-effectiveness, security, scalability, speed, reliability, performance-focus, and accessibility?
