what is the cloud computing<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Cloud computing is an operation running on a large computer server that operates remotely over the internet. It is an alternative to personal computing, which is computing on an individual device directly. The benefits of cloud computing typically include increased computing power, storage space, and speed, while the downsides typically include a regular fee rather than fixed upfront cost, the limitations of your internet connection such as latency, reliability, and speed, as well as not having direct access to, and ownership of, your computing device.<|im_end|>
