4 IBM definition focuses on the user experience, business model, infrastructure management and the service delivery aspects A user experience and a business model Cloud computing is an emerging style of IT delivery in which applications, data, and IT resources are rapidly provisioned and provided as standardized offerings to users over the web in a flexible pricing model. An infrastructure management and services delivery methodology Cloud computing is a way of managing large numbers of highly virtualized resources such that, from a management perspective, they resemble a single large resource. This can then be used to deliver services with elastic scaling.
