Cloud
cloudCloud computing delivers compute, storage, and services on demand over the internet, billed by usage. These articles cover architecture and operations across providers — designing for reliability and cost, choosing between managed and self-hosted options, and running workloads securely — without vendor hype.
You'll find practical guidance on infrastructure-as-code, containers and orchestration, observability, and cost optimization that applies whether you're on AWS, GCP, Azure, or a hybrid setup.
Frequently asked questions
What is cloud computing?
Cloud computing is renting computing resources — servers, storage, databases, and higher-level services — from a provider over the internet, paying only for what you use instead of buying and maintaining your own hardware.
What is the difference between IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS?
IaaS gives you raw infrastructure (VMs, networks) to manage yourself; PaaS provides a managed platform to deploy code without managing servers; SaaS is fully managed software you just use. Each trades control for less operational overhead.
