What is cloud storage
Cloud storage is a way of saving your files and data on remote servers that you access over the internet (cloud) instead of storing them only on your computer or phone. Instead your files are stored in large data centers owned by companies like Google, Apple, Microsoft, or Dropbox. You upload files (photo, document, video, etc.) to a cloud service. The file is stored on remote servers. You can access it anytime from any device with internet access.
