• Simplifies access to the IT resources over the internet.
• Flexible to deploy, manage, destroy compute resources.
• Less maintenance to access compute resources as nothing to be installed on local systems.
• PaaS model offers online development and deployment tools.
• Cloud Computing offers OnDemand access to the compute resources.
• Pay-As-You-Go pricing model.
• Shared Responsibility Model – Service Provider responsible in hardware licenses, software licenses.
• Infrastructure Scale on Demand.
• Security
• High Availability
