Cloud computing provides computing resources such as storage, applications, and infrastructure through internet-based services, allowing organizations to scale resources without managing physical hardware. The three primary models are IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), and SaaS (Software as a Service), each offering different levels of control and management responsibility. An IT ticket system is a support tool used to track, assign, and resolve technical issues. Tickets document problem details, troubleshooting steps, and resolutions, helping IT teams manage workloads and measure service quality. Cloud computing enables organizations to scale infrastructure, support remote access, reduce hardware costs, and deploy applications faster. IT professionals need cloud knowledge to manage modern hybrid and cloud-native environments. IT professionals need to understand cloud service models, virtual machine management, network configuration in cloud platforms, identity and access management, security practices, and how to monitor and optimize cloud resources.
