Glossary Entry: Cloud Service

Quick Definition

Many places offer their own clouds for you to use. These services are thus known as "cloud services". In gaming, the most commonly known cloud service is probably the one that comes with Steam. Steam can store your screenshots and saved games in their cloud via their cloud service. This give you access to your saved games from anywhere, so you don't need to worry about losing your progress if your computer dies.
