Fix: Glossary for Cloud

[ragul1697]

Description

Fixes #35519 - Added Glossary item for Cloud

Additional details

Since MDN focuses on the web, it might be beneficial to include content about hosting web applications. Additionally, adding information about cloud services and cloud service providers could be valuable.

Hi there @ragul1697, and thank you for your contribution to MDN! I've provided you with a few comments to consider, although I think this is largely going in the right direction.

[ragul1697]

Thanks for all the comments. I will make the changes soon and let you know.

I think another good addition would be to include different cloud deployment style (e.g. Private Cloud, Public Cloud, etc.) as mentioned in the NIST Definition of Cloud Computing. Also including the document itself could be a good source for additional reading.

Hi @chrisdavidmills, I have made some changes for the Glossary item on Cloud Computing. Pease have a look at it. Thanks

[chrisdavidmills]

@ragul1697 great work., thank you so much. This content is interesting and useful. I've provided a bunch of comments, but most of them are fairly minor grammar/consistency updates.

The only really major one is the last one; I really don't think you need the last section.

[ragul1697]

Hi @chrisdavidmills, completed all the changes requested. Thank you✌️

I've taken liberty to reorganize the "cloud computing" page so it is much terser and doesn't use headings, but all information is still there. This looks great and we just need approval from @chrisdavidmills

[chrisdavidmills]

OK, approving!

Thanks to @Josh-Cena for helping to tidy this up. I also made a small edit to tighten the text up a bit further (the second paragraph was a bit wordy, and used "cloud services" too often). I am really happy with this now.

Our biggest thanks here must go to @ragul1697 for sticking with us through all the change requests and producing a nice piece of content for MDN. Your contribution is much appreciated!

Thank you @chrisdavidmills.
