Cloud computing is a general term for anything that involves delivering hosted services over the Internet.
Simply, cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence—over the Internet to offer technological innovations, elastic resources, and economies of scale. You only pay for cloud services you use, helping lower your operating and capital costs, run your infrastructure more efficiently and scale as your business needs change.

Software as a service is a method for delivering software applications over the Internet, on demand and typically on a subscription basis. With SaaS, cloud providers host and manage the software application and underlying infrastructure and handle any maintenance, like software upgrades and security patching.
