WHAT IS CLOUD STORAGE?

As it is said that to understand anything, one should first know about its roots or foundations. The same applies here, so in order to know about cloud storage, it is mandatory to first establish the understanding of cloud computing. Cloud computing is basically a synonym to far-flung data centers that can be accessed through the internet. Generally, cloud computing works on the concept of virtualization. This concept further provides the basis for virtual machines. Virtual machines are created with the help of software which segregates the memory, power, and storage of the subjected machine into various smaller units. Each of these smaller units will be running its own operating system. This concept allows the computing resources to be shared and accessed efficiently by every connected device or third-party apps on the cloud network.
