Hey guys, I keep hearing this term "cloud computing" but I don't really get what it actually is. How can we store our own files and programs online? How is security ensured? Can you explain it in more detail? What should I learn to take the first steps in this area?
What is cloud computing and how does it work?

Cloud computing is like a library: instead of storing books (your data) yourself, it’s a system that makes them accessible online. When you save emails or files on Gmail or Google Drive, your data actually lives on Google’s servers—you just access them through your browser, and their infrastructure keeps it secure. To start, you can set up your own “mini cloud” by trying out the free tiers of AWS or Azure.
