Cloud Computing

SaaS is a software delivery model where software is accessed via the internet. With SaaS, software is centrally hosted and accessed by users using a thin client via a web browser. IaaS provides on-demand access to computing infrastructure resources like storage, networking, and servers. PaaS provides developers with tools and services for building, testing, and deploying software applications without having to buy and manage the underlying infrastructure. [END SUMMARY]

What is Software as a Service? (SaaS)

SaaS is a software delivery methodology


that provides licensed multi-tenant access
to software and its functions remotely as a
Web-based service.

Usually billed based on usage


Usually multi tenant environment
Highly scalable architecture
SaaS is not ASP 2.0

The ASP model concentrated on providing an


organization with the ability to move certain
application processing duties to leased third-
party managed servers.
ASPs were not necessarily concerned about
providing shared services to multiple tenants, but
rather hosting a dedicated application on behalf
of the customer.
Most ASPs did not possess the required amount
of application and business knowledge regarding
the applications they were running.
Service Models
Cloud Software as a Service (SaaS):
The capability provided to the consumer is to use
the providers applications running on a cloud
infrastructure.
The applications are accessible from various client
devices such as a web browser (e.g., web-based
email).
The consumer does not manage or control the
underlying cloud infrastructure including network,
servers, operating systems, storage,
Examples: Caspio, Google Apps, Salesforce, Nivio,
Learn.com.

SaaS Examples
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

IaaS is the delivery of technology


infrastructure as an on demand scalable
service

Usually billed based on usage


Usually multi tenant virtualized
environment
Can be coupled with Managed Services for
OS and application support
IaaS is not Managed Hosting

Traditional managed hosting is a form of


web hosting where a user chooses to lease
entire server(s) housed in an off-site data
center.

Term based contracts based on projected


resource requirements
Service Models (cont.)
Cloud Platform as a Service (PaaS):
The capability provided to the consumer is to deploy
onto the cloud infrastructure consumer-created or
acquired applications created using programming
languages and tools supported by the provider.
The consumer does not manage or control the
underlying cloud infrastructure.
Consumer has control over the deployed applications
and possibly application hosting environment
configurations.
Examples: Windows Azure, Google App.

9
Service Models (cont.)
Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS):
The capability provided to the consumer is to provision
processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental
computing resources.
The consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software,
which can include operating systems and applications.
The consumer does not manage or control the underlying
cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems,
storage, deployed applications, and possibly limited control
of select networking components (e.g., host firewalls).
Examples: Amazon EC2, GoGrid, iland, Rackspace Cloud
Servers, ReliaCloud.

IaaS Examples
Platform as a Service (PaaS)

PaaS provides all of the facilities required to


support the complete life cycle of building
and delivering web applications and services
entirely from the Internet.

Typically applications must be developed with


a particular platform in mind
Multi tenant environments
Highly scalable multi tier architecture

Deployment Models
Public cloud
Public cloud (off-site and remote) describes cloud computing where resources are dynamically
provisioned on an on-demand, self-service basis over the Internet, via web applications/web
services, open API, from a third-party provider who bills on a utility computing basis.

Private cloud
A private cloud environment is often the first step for a corporation prior to adopting a public cloud
initiative. Corporations have discovered the benefits of consolidating shared services on virtualized
hardware deployed from a primary datacenter to serve local and remote users.

Hybrid cloud
A hybrid cloud environment consists of some portion of computing resources on-site (on premise)
and off-site (public cloud). By integrating public cloud services, users can leverage cloud solutions
for specific functions that are too costly to maintain on-premise such as virtual server disaster
recovery, backups and test/development environments.

Community cloud
A community cloud is formed when several organizations with similar requirements share common
infrastructure. Costs are spread over fewer users than a public cloud but more than a single tenant.
Where is the Cloud Going?
IDC's updated IT Cloud Services Forecast predicts
that public cloud computing will grow from $17.4
billion worth of IT spend in 2009 to $44 billion by
2013. 1

Additionally, Federal CIO Vivek Kundra has vowed


to spend $19 billion of U.S. government's $70
billion IT budget on cloud computing.
The five year growth outlook remains strong,
with a five-year annual growth rate of 26% over
six
1 times the rate of traditional IT offerings.
Public Cloud Only
Cloud Distribution Examined
Why Now?
The acceptance and proliferation of hardware
virtualization and multi-tenant applications
The Internet has become ubiquitous and an accepted
method of connecting providers with consumers
ISPs/Telcos are offering robust, redundant and
managed corporate internet service enabling service
consolidation efficiencies.
The cost verses risk equation has tipped toward shared
solutions
Computing capabilities are being seen as a ongoing
service rather than an internal capital expense
The Reality
Enterprises will be dragged kicking and
screaming through the gates of cloud
computing by the economy, consumers, SMBs
and emerging markets.
