Cloud Computing and Aws Guidebook: History

This document provides an overview of cloud computing and AWS. It discusses how cloud computing provides platforms for websites to grow online and be accessible from anywhere. Cloud computing optimizes IT infrastructure costs for companies by helping them focus on business goals rather than infrastructure maintenance. The document then gives a brief history of cloud computing, explaining how virtual private networks and large-scale computing enabled storage and processing of data. It concludes by defining cloud computing as a system using remote servers over the internet rather than local servers, in order to maintain data and services without interruptions.

Cloud Computing and AWS GuideBook

Today’s generation is plagued by the constant rise in need of services and resources that are
required in order to establish a solid entity. A website needs a platform which can be live and
continuously running, to generate maximum hits and grow its community. This is where cloud
computing comes into the picture. It provides a platform which enables the website to grow
online and be visible to everyone. It can be accessed anywhere and changes by the admin can
be done to it anytime at their own comfort.

Cloud computing has been known to optimize IT-infrastructure costs. Many companies are
known to deploy it in their systems to decrease costs and concentrate more on their business
goals. This promotes professionalism and helps the company to be more focused on attaining its
business goals. There are many features and advantages of cloud computing that we are going
to cover in this guidebook. This guidebook has been specifically crafted to nurture the different
deployment models and services that cloud computing has up its sleeve. The online markets
have realized the lackluster performance of their personally owned servers which is incapable of
handling so much traffic at once. Cloud computing has facilitated many organizations to look
past their local servers and rely on high-performance remote servers that can be futile for their
business.

History
During the 2000s, cloud computing gained momentum. Before this period, it was used to
represent a batch of computers that were connected with each other to save data. After the
advent of Virtual Private Networks, companies gradually implemented VPN in their networks for
better security. This enabled the companies to use the overall network bandwidth more
efficiently. Later, a cloud-like logo was used to denote for the advent of cloud computing. As
more and more servers were included and the infrastructure was growing steadily, the storage
computing had a paradigm shift. Scientists and computer engineers learned more ways to
extend this storage by implementing large-scale computing to include more real-time servers to
process and save data. More and more algorithms were tested to optimize the services that use
the cloud computing platform as their way of communication with the real world.

Definition
Cloud computing is a collective system which uses remote servers on the internet to collect,
maintain and process data rather than a local server or personal computer. If a person wants to
host his website online, he can buy a bunch of servers at a subsidized cost to keep his website
up and running. Excessive data traffic is common at peak hours and makes us realize the true
potential of cloud computing. The reason why more companies are relying on this technology is
to make sure that their services are rendered to the customers without any hiccups and the flow
is maintained without the slightest interruption.
