Cloud computing is a method for delivering information technology (IT) services in which resources are (A) (viable) from the Internet through web-based tools and applications, as opposed to a direct connection to a server. Rather than keeping files on a (B) (seamless) hard drive or local storage device, cloud-based storage makes it possible to save them to a remote database.
