A cloud access security broker ( CASB) (sometimes pronounced cas-bee) is on-premises or cloud based software that sits between cloud service users and cloud applications, and monitors all activity and enforces security policies. [1] A CASB can offer services such as monitoring user activity, warning administrators about potentially hazardous ...
Cloud computing [1] is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, especially data storage ( cloud storage) and computing power, without direct active management by the user. [2] Large clouds often have functions distributed over multiple locations, each of which is a data center.
Cloud storage is a model of computer data storage in which data, said to be on " the cloud ", is stored remotely in logical pools and is accessible to users over a network, typically the Internet. The physical storage spans multiple servers (sometimes in multiple locations), and the physical environment is typically owned and managed by a cloud ...
A secure access service edge ( SASE) is technology used to deliver wide area network (WAN) and security controls as a cloud computing service directly to the source of connection ( user, device, Internet of things (IoT) device, or edge computing location) rather than a data center. [1] It uses cloud and edge computing technologies to reduce the ...

Early history. In 1963, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) funded Project MAC, the first computer time-sharing system. During the 1960s, the initial concepts of time-sharing became popularized via Remote Job Entry (RJE); this terminology was mostly associated with large vendors such as IBM and DEC.
A cloud database is a database that typically runs on a cloud computing platform and access to the database is provided as-a-service. There are two common deployment models: users can run databases on the cloud independently, using a virtual machine image, or they can purchase access to a database service, maintained by a cloud database ...
