CompTIA Security+ Certification SY0-601: The Total Course - Cloud Deployment Models

The video tutorial covers cloud computing, explaining its basic concept as running IT services on external equipment over a network. It introduces fog and edge computing, highlighting their role in caching cloud-stored content locally. The tutorial discusses accessing cloud services, VPN setup, and the characteristics of cloud computing, such as pooled resources, broad access, self-service, rapid elasticity, and metered usage. It also explores various cloud deployment models, including public, private, hybrid, and community clouds, emphasizing shared responsibility and tenant isolation.

What is a simplified definition of cloud computing?
