Q1: What Is a Cloud platform?
A cloud platform is the operating system and hardware of servers in a data center that are configured to provide cloud computing services to customers. A cloud platform enables businesses to rent access to computing resources on demand over the internet with pay-as-you-go pricing, rather than buying, installing, and managing their own data centers, servers, and software required to have these resources available on premises.
