A Cloud Service Provider (CSP) is a company that offers computing resources and services—such as storage, networking, databases, and software—over the Internet. These services enable businesses and individuals to access and manage data, applications, and infrastructure remotely without the need for on-premises hardware. CSPs typically operate on a subscription or pay-as-you-go model, providing scalable and flexible solutions to meet various IT needs. Examples of CSPs include Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud.
