Abstract

Cloud computing has revolutionized the way computing resources are accessed, managed, and delivered. It enables users to utilize computing power, storage, and applications over the Internet without requiring physical infrastructure. This paradigm has significantly improved efficiency, scalability, and costeffectiveness for organizations. However, despite its widespread adoption, cloud computing introduces several concerns such as data security, privacy risks, and service reliability. This paper provides an in-depth analysis of cloud computing, focusing on its key benefits and major challenges. The study also highlights current research trends and emphasizes the need for improved security and management strategies.
