Cloud Computing
“It’s one of the foundations of the next
generation of computing. . .. It’s a world
where the network is the platform for all
computing, where everything we think of as a
computer today is just a device that connects
to the big computer we’re building. Cloud
computing is a great way to think about how
we’ll deliver computing services in the future.”
—Tim O’Reilly, CEO, O’Reilly Media
High-Level Look

In many ways, cloud computing is simply a
metaphor for the Internet, the increasing
movement of compute and data resources
onto the Web.
High-Level Look


But there’s a difference:
Higher efficiency
massive scalability
faster, easier software development
It’s about new programming models, new IT
infrastructure, and the enabling of new
business models.
Why Cloud Computing

IT Efficiency + Economy
Delivering resources on demand
Reduce capital expenditures
Cut the cost of running a datacenter
Eliminate overprovisioning
Why Cloud Computing

Faster, More Flexible Programming
Accelerated cycles
Increase agility
Harnessing Cloud Computing




Use the Cloud
Leverage the Cloud
Development and testing
Functional offloading
Augmentation
Experimenting
Build the Cloud
Be the Cloud
Cloud Types

Public clouds:
Run by third parties, and jobs from many
different customers may be mixed together
on the servers, storage systems, and other
infrastructure within the cloud. End users
don’t know who else’s job may be me running
on the same server, network, or disk as their
own jobs.
Cloud Types

Private clouds:
Are a good option for companies dealing with
data protection and service-level issues.
Private clouds are on-demand infrastructure
owned by a single customer who controls
which applications run, and where. They own
the server, network, and disk and can decide
which users are allowed to use the
infrastructure.
Cloud Types

Hybrid clouds:
Combine the public and private cloud models.
You own parts and share other parts, though
in a controlled way. Hybrid clouds offer the
promise of on-demand, externally provisioned
scale, but add the complexity of determining
how to distribute applications across these
different environments.
Enabling Technologies





Horizontally scaled, distributed compute
nodes
Sophisticated file systems
Superscale cloud architectures
New techniques of data-intensive computing
Machine images can be instantly deployed
Cornerstone Technology
Virtualization — the abstraction of computer
resources — is the cornerstone technology
for all cloud architectures. With the ability to
virtualize servers (behind a hypervisorabstracted operating system), storage
devices, desktops, and applications, a wide
array of IT resources can now be allocated
on demand

Service Layers

Software as a Service (SaaS)
Features a complete application offered as a
service, ondemand, via multitenancy
meaning a single instance of the software
runs on the provider’s infrastructure and
serves multiple client organizations.
Service Layers

Platform as a Service (PaaS)
Is the encapsulation of a development
environment abstraction and the packaging of
a payload of services. PaaS offerings can
provide for every phase of software
development and testing.
Service Layers

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
Is a means of delivering basic storage and
compute capabilities as standardized
services over the network. Servers, storage
systems, switches, routers, and other
systems are pooled (through virtualization
technology, for example) to handle specific
types of workloads.
