+## What is Cloud Computing?
+> Cloud computing is an internet-based computing model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, 
+> on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing 
+> resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications and services) that can 
+> be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort.
+> 
+> It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources.
+> 
+> It relies on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economies of scale, similar to a utility (like the electricity grid) over a network.
