The NIST Architecture of Cloud Computing is a widely accepted framework established by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. It outlines the essential actors in the cloud ecosystem-such as the Cloud Consumer, Cloud Provider, Cloud Auditor, Cloud Broker, and Cloud Carrier-along with clearly defined service models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS), deployment models (Public, Private, Community, Hybrid), and core characteristics (On Demand Self Service, Broad Network Access, Resource Pooling, Rapid Elasticity, Measured Service). This framework offers standard terminology and structure, helping organizations adopt cloud computing securely, efficiently, and with clarity.
