Tekshapers Cloud computing exhibits the following key characteristics:
Empowerment of end-users of computing resources by putting the provisioning of those resources in their own control, as opposed to the control of a centralized IT service.
Agility improves with users' ability to re-provision technological infrastructure resources.
Deviceand location independenceenable users to access systems using a web browser regardless of their location or what device they are using (e.g., PC, mobile phone). As infrastructure is off-site (typically provided by a third-party) and accessed via the Internet, users can connect from anywhere.
Virtualizationtechnology allows servers and storage devices to be shared and utilization be increased. Applications can be easily migrated from one physical server to another.
