Cloud computing is the on-demand delivery of IT resources over the Internet with pay-as-you-go pricing. Instead of buying, owning, and maintaining physical data centers and servers, you can access advanced technology services, such as computing power, storage, and databases, on an as-needed basis from a cloud provider like Amazon Web Services (AWS).

IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service), PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service), and SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) are the three most common models of cloud services, and it’s not uncommon for an organization to use all three. Cloud computing brings great benefits to businesses by allowing them to innovate fast, scale, and lower costs.

In this episode of Vietnam Innovators podcast, host Hao Tran and Mr. Doron Shachar, founder & CEO of Renova Cloud, discuss what cloud computing is and how this technology can help accelerate conversions in businesses.
