The purpose of this question is to make sure you define a cloud hosting environment in the same way the employer does and that you have familiarity with what elements constitute an IT cloud.

William Swansen

"A cloud is an amalgamation of computer hardware, software, network, storage, and services. It can be managed by the organization or by a third-party service provider, such as Amazon or Microsoft. It is also known as 'computing as a service'. End users are unaware of where the components are located and where their applications and data reside. They access the cloud via an interface. This creates an environment in which they do their work."
