What is OnDemand?

OnDemand, in the context of computing, generally refers to resources (like compute, storage, or software) that are available and provisioned immediately when needed, and for which users are typically charged only for the time they are actively using those resources. It's a key aspect of cloud computing, allowing businesses to scale resources up or down rapidly in response to changing demands without having to invest in and maintain their own infrastructure. This model can lead to cost savings and increased agility.
