3. What is Cloud?
• In Cloud Computing, the word cloud is used as a metaphor for
“ the Internet.” In other words, we can say cloud is something,
which is present at remote location. Well it is an abstraction
of underlying infrastructures involved.
4. What is Cloud Computing?
• Simply put, cloud computing is the delivery of computing services –
servers, storage, databases, networking, software, and analytics and
more- over the Internet(Cloud).
• Cloud Computing consists of hardware and software resources made
available on the internet as they are managed by the third party services.
These services typically provides access to advanced software
applications, high end networks of server computers.
"You don't generate your own electricity. Why generate your own
computing?“ -Jeff Bezos, Amazon.
5. History
It was a gradual evolution that started in the 1950s with mainframe
computing
After some time, around 1970, the concept of virtual machines (VMs) was
created.
In 1999, Salesforce.com started delivering of applications to users using a
simple website.
In 2002 Amazon provided First public cloud AWS (Amazon Web Service) ,
providing services like storage, computation.
In 2009, Google Apps also started to provide cloud computing enterprise
applications.
In 2009, Microsoft launched Windows Azure, and companies like Oracle
and HP have all joined the game. This proves that today, cloud computing
has become mainstream.
6. Benefits of cloud computing
• Drive down costs
• Accessibility
• Productivity
• Scalability
• Access to automatic updates
• Business Continuity (Back up & Recovery)
• Pay structure
7. Simple Examples of cloud computing
• Email: Web-based email services like Gmail and Hotmail deliver a cloud
computing service: users can access their email "in the cloud" from any
computer with a browser and Internet connection, regardless of what kind
of hardware is on that particular computer. The emails are hosted on
Google's and Microsoft's servers, rather than being stored locally on the
client computer.
• Office Productivity Software: Office 365, Google docs and Zoho office.
This software allow you to keep and edit your documents online. By doing
so, the documents will be accessible anywhere, and you can share the
documents and collaborate on them. Multiple people can work in the
same document simultaneously.
• Storage: One Drive, Google Drive, iCloud and Drop Box.
8. Common Cloud Characteristics
• On Demand Self Service
• Broad network access
• Multi-Tenancy (Resource Pooling)
• Rapid Elasticity
• Measured service
11. Deployment Models
• A cloud deployment model represents a specific type of cloud
environment, primarily distinguished by ownership, size, and
access.
• There are three common cloud deployment models:
12. Deployment Models
• Public Cloud: Public clouds are owned and operated by a third party cloud
service provider, which deliver their computing resources like servers and
storage over the internet. As the name suggests, Public cloud is open to
public. Anyone can access and use it by paying accordingly
13. Deployment Models
• Private Cloud: The private cloud, in contrast to its public counterpart, isn't
available to the public but is built specifically for a single organization to fit
its needs. It may be managed internally or by a third-party and be hosted
internally or externally.
• Hybrid Cloud: A hybrid cloud is a combination of a private cloud combined
with the use of public cloud services allowing data and applications to
move between private and public clouds. This model gives business
greater flexibility and more deployment options
14. Service Models
In the world of cloud computing, there are three different
approaches to cloud-based services:
• Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
• Platform as a Service (PaaS)
• Software as a Service (SaaS)
15. Service Models
• Infrastructure as a service (IaaS):is a cloud computing offering in
which a vendor provides users access to computing resources such as
servers, storage, and networking. Organizations use their own platforms
and applications within a service provider’s infrastructure.
Key features
Instead of purchasing hardware outright, users pay for IaaS on demand.
Infrastructure is scalable depending on processing and storage needs.
Saves enterprises the costs of buying and maintaining their own
hardware.
Because data is on the cloud, there is no single point of failure.
16. Service Models
• Platform as a service (PaaS): is a cloud computing offering that provides
users a cloud environment in which they can develop, manage, and deliver
applications. In addition to storage and other computing resources, users are
able to use a suite of prebuilt tools to develop, customize and test their own
applications.
Key features
PaaS provides a platform with tools to test, develop, and host applications in
the same environment.
Enables organizations to focus on development without having to worry
about underlying infrastructure.
Providers manage security, operating systems, server software, and backups.
Facilitates collaborative work even if teams work remotely.
17. Service Models
• Software as a service (SaaS): is a cloud computing offering that
provides users with access to a vendor’s cloud-based software. Users do not
install applications on their local devices. Instead, the applications reside on
a remote cloud network accessed through the web or an API. Through the
application, users can store and analyze data and collaborate on projects.
Key features
SaaS vendors provide users with software and applications on a subscription
model.
Users do not have to manage, install, or upgrade software; SaaS providers
manage this.
Data is secure in the cloud; equipment failure does not result in loss of data.
Use of resources can be scaled depending on service needs.
22. Pros and Cons
Pros:
• Reduced hardware equipment for end-users
• Improved performance
• Lower H/W and S/W maintenance
• Instant software updates
• Accessibility
• Metered services
• Less expensive
• Improved Disaster Recovery
Cons:
• Requires good internet speed with good bandwidth
• Security
• Limited control on Infrastructure
23. What is Microsoft Azure?
• Azure is a flexible cloud platform (PaaS) that enables you to quickly build,
deploy and manage applications across a global network of Microsoft –
managed datacenters.
• You can build applications using any language, tool or framework.
24. Microsoft Azure
• Virtual Machines:
Azure gives you the ability to create VMs by simply specifying the size and
virtual hard disks (VHD) you want to use. Azure provides access to both
Windows and Linux VHDs, so the developers has a freedom to choose
what they want to work. Developers can use VMs to build and test
applications quickly at low cost.
• Web Sites:
You can use Azure as a platform for creating and hosting websites and
web applications
25. Microsoft Azure
• Mobile Services:
Azure’s Mobile services give you the tools to create and deploy
applications. The information that gets accessed by the app running on
your device is stored in what’s called a back-end database, and so Mobile
services are reffered to as mobile Back-end as a service (mBaaS). With
Azure , you can build apps for Android, iOS, HTML / JavaScript and
Windows Phone.
26. Microsoft Azure
• Azure supports the broadest selection of operating systems, programming
languages, frameworks, tools, databases and devices. Build apps with
JavaScript, Python, .NET, PHP, Java and Node.js; build back-ends for iOS,
Android and Windows devices. Azure cloud service supports the same
technologies millions of developers and IT professionals already rely on
and trust.
27. Conclusion
Cloud computing has quickly become one of the most prominent
buzzwords in the IT world due to its revolutionary model of computing as
a utility. It promises increased flexibility, scalability, and reliability, while
promising decreased operational and support costs
Despite the potential gains achieved from the cloud computing, the
organizations are slow in accepting it due to security issues and challenges
associated with it. Security is one of the major issues which hamper the
growth of cloud. The idea of handing over important data to another
company is worrisome; such that the consumers need to be vigilant in
understanding the risks of data breaches in this new environment.
