These days Cloud Computing is
the Buzz Word and it is being used to run various types of business
applications. In very simple
terms Cloud Computing is delivery of pooled network resources such as CPU, RAM,
Storage, Software over the web. These services can be rapidly provided and
released on demand.
In Simple words “Providing
Hosted Services Over The Internet”.
An Introduction of Cloud
Computing:
A
working definition of cloud computing could be delivering hosted services over
the Internet. As most of these services are based on cloud computing, there is
little use of a number of software and free spaces space in the computer.
It is not alien to common man, as we are already using Cloud-Computing
while using Internet. This much talked about services is already part of Gmail,
YahooMail, Hotmail, MSN and other email services.
What is Cloud Computing?
The Cloud Computing is another revolution in Internet
technology. In case of Cloud computing,
network resources such as CPU's, RAM, Storage space, Servers, Services etc..
are available in a resource pool. These all services can be accessed on demand.
So, for example if your application needs the more processing power then it can
request for more CPU's from the resource pool. Once your processing is done it
can be released back to the resource pool.
These days hosting companies are
providing cloud servers, cloud storage, software hosted on the cloud
environment. Cloud computing helps the business to get the required computing
resources at very minimal cost. Once
the work is done you can release the Cloud resources. You will be charged only
for your usage. This ways business
can save lot of money. You can use Cloud computing environment and pay on the
basis of resource usage. The Cloud computing companies are also providing cloud
resources and charging Fixed monthly costs.
The Cloud Competing is mostly used to provide the
virtual servers to the client. The Cloud hosting services is good for small as
well as big businesses. As most of these services are based on cloud computing,
there is little use of a number of software and free spaces space in the
computer. For instance, if you are using email service provider like gmail or
yahoo you have all the data stored on the server of the company providing these
services. The hard disk of your computer doesn't store even a fractional amount
of this data. Only thing our computers do is showing the data.
The name cloud computing
is given as this service is analogous to the cloud in the sky. As the cloud has
potential for rain but it doesn't brings rain everywhere, likewise the cloud
computing servers has all the information but it delivers only requested
information.
Here are a few types
of public cloud computing:
• Infrastructure
as a service (IaaS)
• Platform
as a service (PaaS)
• Software
as a service (SaaS)
• Storage
as a service (STaaS)
• Security
as a service (SECaaS)
• Data as a
service (DaaS)
Components of Cloud Commuting environment:
Server Hardware
Most companies are using high end servers to make Cloud
computing environment.
Cloud OS
The Cloud OS is installed on the hardware. Cloud OS
allows the companies to distribute and manage the resources of the Cloud
system. It also provides the control panel to see the status of the over all
system.
Some of the Cloud OS are eyeOS, VMware Cloud Operating
System, icloud, Cloudo, Cornelios etc...
With the help of
utilities provided by Cloud OS you can create virtual server for your clients.
Your client can login and use the allocated virtual server/resources. You can
increase and decrease the resource usage by client.
Parts:
Cloud computing
services comprise of two parts named Front
end and Back end. Both these
parts are connected through an effective medium called Internet. In terms of the cloud Computing, the computers used by
common man are considered front-end part. One has to install some programs on
their computers so that they can access the services from the cloud. Server computers and Data Storage systems are considered Back
end part of cloud computing system.
Cloud Computing is
growing fast and companies are taking full advantage of the services provided
by Cloud computing.The
cloud computing services have various advantages for businesses and
individuals.
Benefits of Cloud
Computing
We can get to the information from
any place.
Certification of Protection of
Datas.
Can use free open source software.
Business advantages
of Cloud Computing
Pay for only using volume.
It is easy and very speed.
Can be paid monthly.
Can work according to the
standard.
Amount of workers and workspace are less .
