'''Utility computing''' is a service provisioning model in which a service provider makes computing resources and infrastructure management available to the customer as needed,cquire computer resources; instead, [[computational resource]]s are essentially rented.

This repackaging of computing services became the foundation of the shift to "[[Code on demand|on demand]]" computing, [[software as a service]] and [[cloud computing]] models that further propagated the idea of computing, application and network as a service.
