CHAPTER - 3
 Cloud Deployment Model…

 Private Cloud

 Public Cloud

 Community
Cloud
 Hybrid Cloud
Cloud model is classified based on the following
factors,
 Number of users
 Type of service Provider
 Location
 Type of Users
 Security
Private Cloud…
 Usually deployed by a single

organization for their exclusive

use

 Not allowed for personal use,

only for people in that

organization can use it

 Owned, Managed and

Operated by that organization

 Smallest in Size
 Characteristics…
 Secure
 Central control
 Weak SLAs

Suitable for…
 Companies who needs separate cloud
 Companies who have sufficient amount of funds
 Companies who consider data security
 Companies who wants complete control over cloud
 Companies who have less users
 Not Suitable for…
 Companies who have high user base

 Companies who have financial constraint

 Companies who don’t have prebuilt infrastructure

 Companies who don’t have Sufficient manpower to

maintain

Types of private Cloud…

 On-Premise Private cloud

 Outsourced Private cloud

 On-Premise Private Cloud…

 Typical cloud that is deployed and managed by a single organization

connected via the organizational network

Issues…

a) SLA – Agreements between User and Service provider

 This SLA differ from one deployment model to another
 If the services termed in SLA, are violated service provider should
pay penalty to the User(Organizations Employees)
 But in Private cloud, the users are less, so services would be efficient
with efficient network.
 b) Network – Usually Private cloud don’t have any network problems,
cause the connectivity is within the organization

c) Performance – Performance of cloud is depends on network. Private

cloud have efficient performance

d) Security & Data privacy – data is managed by the organization itself

e) Location – P/C does not have any problem related to the location of data
being stored.

f) Cloud Management – Cloud Management includes resource scheduling,

resource provisioning and resource management. Since, there is only
limited users, cloud management becomes easier.

g) Multitenancy – Multiple users can access resources

 Outsourced Private Cloud…
 Cloud is Outsourced to a third party

 Third party manages the whole cloud

Issues…
a) SLA – Agreement between third-party and Outsourced organization. SLA is
strictly followed when third-party involved.

b) Network – Internal Network is manged by third-party itself. But the

connection is internal

c) Security & Privacy – Security should be considered when third-party

involves. But, security is treated by third-party and internal employee.
d) Laws and Conflicts – Usually private cloud are not deployed
outside the country. If the location is outside the country,
then several problems may arise

e) Location – When the off-site location is changed the data to

be transmitted through long distance

f) Performance – Performance is based on the third-party, if

the connectivity is also from the third-party

g) Maintenance - Cloud is maintained by third-party, so the

process is less complex and if an organization owns a cloud,
all the cost borne by the organization itself
 Pros…
 Small in Size
 Easy to maintain
 High level of security and privacy to user
 Controlled by the organization

Cons…
 Budget is a Constraint
 Private cloud have loose SLAs
 Public Cloud…

 Provisioned for Open use by

general public
 Users from all over the world

 It was owned, Managed and

Operated by CSP
 User use the resources from
the providers end and the
resources are infinite at one
end
 Characteristics…
a) Highly Scalable – Public cloud are highly scalable.

(Ability to increase or decrease the IT resources)

b) Affordable - Pay-as-you-Go

c) Less Secure – Since Public cloud is provided by third-party,

they have full control over the cloud

d) Highly Available – World wide Access

e) Stringent SLAs - SLAs are very strict in public cloud

 Suitability…
 Requirement for resources is large (Large user base)

 Requirement for resources is varying

 When no physical infrastructure is available

 Organization has financial constraints

Not Suitable for…

 Security is important
 Organization expects autonomy
 Third-Party involvement is not preferred
 Issues…
a) SLA – Unlike private cloud the no. of users are more, so the CSP of
public cloud are answerable to all users.

b) Network – Unlike private cloud, user are responsible for network. So,
the user will be charged even if he/she has problem due to network

c) Performance – When number of users are more, its hard to provide

good performance

d) Multitenancy – Multiple users are sharing and accessing the resources

e) Location – Public cloud is fragmented and located in different region.

So, data of single user stored in different location
 f) Security and data privacy – Less secure, cause data is stored in

different location

g) Laws and Conflicts – Since data is stored in different countries, the rules

and regulations differs from one another

h) Cloud management – Inefficient management of resource may lead to

resource shortage

i) Maintenance - It includes continuous checking of resources, network,

etc.

Here, data centre disk are replaced frequently.

 Pros…
 No infrastructure set up is needed
 No need for maintaining the cloud
 Less costly
 Strict SLAs are followed
 Unlimited users
 Highly Scalable

Cons…
 Less security
 Privacy and Organizational Autonomy are not possible
 Community Cloud…

 Provided for exclusive use

by a specific community of
consumers, who have
shared concerns (Mission,
security policies)
 Owned, managed &
operated by them or third
party
 Characteristics…

 Collaborative & Distributive maintenance

 Partially secure

 Cost Effective

Suitable for…

 Organization who wants private cloud but budget is Constraint

 Don’t want to do complete maintenance

 Who want to collaborate with other cloud

Not suitable for…

 Prefer autonomy & control

 Not want to collaborate with others

 Types…

On-premise – cloud is deployed & maintained by organization itself

Issues

SLA: SLA is there to maintain the fair play among organization

Network: Each organization is responsible for their Network

Performance: Since, maintenance is done by organizations, So each organization is

responsible for cloud performance

Multitenancy: Multitenancy may cause unprivileged access to data

Location: Sometimes cloud is deployed off-site, so both of them should access the cloud
from another location

Security & Privacy: Less secure

Laws & Conflicts: This is based on the boundaries of the organization

Cloud management: Done by CSP

Outsourced – Maintained by third party

Issues…

SLA: Strict SLA is followed due to third party involvement

Network: Depends on the organizations

Performance: Depends on the third party maintenance

Security & Privacy: Less secure

Laws & Conflicts: If the CSP is off-site, then laws and

conflicts are based on that.
 Advantages…
 Low-Cost private cloud
 Allows collaborative work
 Allows sharing responsibilities
 Secured than public cloud

Disadvantage…
 Autonomy is lost
 Not secured as private cloud
 Not suitable without collaboration
 Hybrid
Cloud…
 Combination of two or more cloud infrastructure
 Characteristic…

 Partially secure

 Stringent SLA

 Complex cloud management

Suitable for…

 Who wants private environment in public cloud

 Who wants more security than public cloud

Not suitable for…

 When security is a constraint

 Cannot handle hybrid cloud management

 Issues…

 Advantages…
 Gives the power of both private & public cloud

 Highly scalable

 Better security than public cloud

Disadvantage…
 Less secure
