    Cloud computing allows users to access computer data and applications over the Internet rather than having to store and run them on a local device. It works by hosting applications and data on remote servers, which users can then access via the Internet from any computer rather than having to install software locally. Some key advantages of cloud computing include lower costs, centralized data storage and sharing, improved collaboration, automatic backups, and greater security, though it requires a fast Internet connection and relies on the Internet being available.
