Cloud Computing Overview



Cloud Computing or On demand computing (US NIST Definition): 
A model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on demand network access to a shared 
pool of configurable computing resources.

Computing resources example:-Networks, Servers, storage, applications and services.

Characteristics of Cloud computing:
Self-service: Allow consumers to provision computing resources.
Global Network access: Access  from internet.
Multitenancy: Allow share the underlying hardware.
Elasticity: Scales in or scale out to satisfy consumer demand.
Telemetry: Resources can be monitored and metered by the service provide as well
 as the cloud consumer.













Service models:

IaaS - Infrastructure as a service: - Allow to provision computing resources and software.
Eg. - Openstack

PaaS - Platform as a Service: - Provides the Operating system to consumer.
Eg. - Google engine for android applications

SaaS - Software as a service: - Provides OS as well as software
Eg. Office 365

Some more example


















  Cloud deployment model:


 

Other models :
Community Cloud : shares infrastructure between several organizations from a specific
 community with common concerns (security, compliance, jurisdiction, etc.), whether
managed internally or by a third-party, and either hosted internally or externally.
