Definition

National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) definition: Cloud computing is a model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction

History : Cloud computing as the fifth generation of computing

Mainframe : Central servers accessible through passive terminals PC : spread of office applications and peer to peer workgroups Client /server architecture : thin client interest vs fat client deployment Web evolution : Web 2.0, dynamic web , webservices, SOAP Architecture, system integration. Cloud computing : resource pooling, elastic environment and service oriented computing.

Google App Engine, Windows Azure
The user can develop and deploy his own applications on the cloud or manage it is own development environment.

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) IaaS

Google compute engine, Amazon EC2/S3, Rackspace Cloud

Examples
I am a SME and I need a CRM

I am an IT company and I need a dev platform

I need extra servers timely

Why moving to the cloud

Business Transformation can become more agile with changing context and competition thanks to cloud computing:
By Transforming IT business models:
Turning Capex to affordable Opex: No more TCO with mutlitanacy Cost reduction :
Economies of scale : Resource pooling, militancy Billing on usage: Elasticity, pay for usage not for immobilization.

By transforming IT management into service management :

SLA negotiation is more convenient for business owners Pick only service s you need Fast provisioning and deployment: no server purchase and commissioning
