cloud server
Virtual computing machine
A cloud server is a virtual server hosted on remote computing infrastructure, accessed over the internet rather than run on local hardware.
Companies rent cloud servers instead of maintaining their own physical machines: We migrated our database to a cloud server.
The term emphasizes that the computing resources exist somewhere in "the cloud"—available on demand without the user knowing or caring about the actual location.
