The Cloud is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, especially data storage and computing power, without direct active management by the user. Large clouds often have functions distributed over multiple locations, each location being a data center

Answer:

Cloud is a condensed from of atmospheric moisture consisting of small water droplets.

Clouds cause rainfall and snow fall.

Different types of clouds are found in the atmosphere. Some main types of them are cirrus, cumulus, nimbus, and stratus. Most clouds are generated by the cooling of air as it rises.
