Cloud Computing Explained in 5 Minutes: AWS vs Azure vs GCP

Tech

What is cloud computing? The Cloud consists of offering computing resources, such as servers and software, on-demand via the internet, following a pay as you go model. We quickly go through the history of computing, from mainframes and personal computers to the internet and mobile applications. Then we explore the beginning of the cloud with the creation of AWS. In the second half of the video, we answer the question: what is the cloud, from a technical point of view, focusing on compute, storage and networking building blocks. The final part of the video explains why the cloud is important for the current AI and machine learning revolution. And why we think this is just the beginning of the cloud and its impact on our lives. --- Sources referred to or used in this video: How Amazon’s S3 jumpstarted the cloud revolution https://www.protocol.com/enterprise/amazon-aws-s3-15-years Amazon Maintains Lead in the Cloud Market https://www.statista.com/chart/18819/worldwide-market-share-of-leading-cloud-infrastructure-service-providers/ How Cloud Computing Revolutionized Business Operations And What Lies Ahead https://www.forbes.com/sites/emilsayegh/2023/11/28/how-cloud-computing-revolutionized-business-operations-and-what-lies-ahead Google Invests in AI Startup Runway to Wrest Cloud Business From AWS https://www.theinformation.com/articles/google-invests-in-ai-startup-runway-to-wrest-cloud-business-from-aws Revenue of the public cloud market worldwide from 2019 to 2028 https://www.statista.com/forecasts/963841/cloud-services-revenue-in-the-world Who Coined 'Cloud Computing'? https://www.technologyreview.com/2011/10/31/257406/who-coined-cloud-computing --- Icons: Flaticon.com --- AI generated content: The script was written by me (100% human), it was not AI generated in any way.

I really love your videos, they are quick and to the point. However, something seemed to have happened between your video about Microservices and this video. The audio quality is drastically worse.
