Cloud applications are software programs that run on remote servers and are accessed by users over the internet rather than being installed locally, examples include Gmail, Salesforce, and Slack. They rely on cloud infrastructure for computing, storage, and networking, and are typically built with scalability, multi-tenancy, and continuous delivery in mind. Developers and businesses favor them because they reduce local hardware dependence and enable easier updates and remote access.
