TRANSCRIPT
What is the cloud Cloud computing
◦ A type of computing that relies on sharing computer resources rather than having local servers or personal devices-http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/C/cloud_computing.html
◦ The practice of using a network of remote servers hosted on the Internet to store, manage, and process data, rather than a local server or a personal computer - Google
◦ The elastic leasing of pooled computer resources over the internet – MIS book
Evolution of The Cloud Grid Computing
◦ Solving large problems with parallel computing
Utility Computing◦ Offering computing
resources as a metered service
SaaS◦ Network based
subscriptions to applications
Cloud Computing◦ Anytime, anywhere access
to IT resources delivered dynamically as a service
How Cloud Computing Works
Typically each application will have its own dedicated server
There are multiple digital storage devices that are located all over the globe to keep data safe and secure. If one server goes down the data is replicated on multiple other servers so the data is always available to the end user
Characteristics of CloudA number of characterises can be used to define the nature of the solution and services offered through cloud computing:
Benefits of the cloud‣ Cost Effectiveness
