“Cloud Computing can take on different shapes depending on the

viewer, and often seems a little fuzzy at the edges.”

“A cloud is a pool of virtualized resources that can host variety of

different workloads, allow workloads to be deployed and scaled-out
quickly, allocate resources when needed, and support redundancy. ”
