= |loud computing as a style of computing where
massively scalable IT-related functions and information
are provided as a service across the Internet,
potentially to multiple external customers, where the
consumers of the services need only care about what
the service does for them, not how it is implemented.

= It is not an architecture, a platform, a tool, an


infrastructure, a Web site or a vendor.

= It is a style of computing. Many architectures can be


used to support its implementation and use.

Wha| |

= Œ|loud¶ is used as a metaphor for the depiction of the
Internet on diagrams

= Style of computing in which IT-related capabilities are


provided as a service, allowing users to access
technology-enabled services from the Internet

= It is about how an application, service or infrastructure


is V  Vand V   V

= It is a deployment model leveraged by IT in order to


reduce infrastructure costs and/or address
capacity/scalability concerns

= |loud computing is based on:
- Virtualization
= Running applications in separate, isolated partitions
within a single server and treating all servers in a
network or server farm as a single resource

- Grid |omputing
= networked computers able to access and use the
resources of every other computer on the network

- Utility |omputing
= business model where a company pays another for
access to computer applications or data storage

- Data |enters«lots of them!


= |loud |omputing incorporates

- Infrastructure-as-a-Service
- Platform-as-a-Service
- Software-as-a-Service
Why|  | 
= |lients would be able to access their applications and
data from anywhere at any time

= Reduced need for advanced hardware on the client side


only need enough processing power to run middleware

= Don't have to buy software licenses for every employee


instead only need to pay-per-use

= No physical constraints on space!

= IT support savings due to streamlined hardware and


software

= Grid computing system as back end allows advantage


of the entire network's processing power
 aaah a

= |loud computing could turn home


computers into simple terminal
interfaces«

= Remind you of something???

= Technological innovation is never a


linear path
