Cloud Computing
1
“The Cloud”
A style of computing where massively scalable
(and elastic) IT-related capabilities are provided
“as a service” to external customers using Internet
technologies.
What’s new?

Types of Cloud services / Cloud
Delivery Models
Software as a Service (SaaS): Cloud
applications
Platform as a Service (PaaS): Cloud
services as a platform to develop the
applications
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): Basic
computation and storage resources

Cloud Deployment Model
Public Cloud : Cloud facility shared
with all the users
Private Cloud: Cloud facility exclusive
for a particular firm
Hybrid Cloud : Mix of both , few
services loaded on public cloud and
rest on private cloud

Cloud Hardware Advantages
Illusion of infinite computing resources
available on demand–
no need to plan far ahead for provisioning
Elimination of up-front commitment
allows companies to start small and expand as
needed (reduces capital investment)
Ability to pay for use of computing resources
on short-term basis as needed (e.g.,
processors by the hour and storage by the day)
8
Elasticity
Add or remove resources at fine
grain(Example- Amazon EC2)
Can be added or removed within minutes
Closer matching of resources to
workload
Real world server utilization in data
centers – 5 – 20 %
Peak exceeds average by 2-10%
9
Over and Under Provisioning

Real World Examples
Animoto debut on Facebook –(AWS)
experienced a demand surge that resulted in
growing from 50 servers to 3500 servers in
three days
later traffic fell to a level well below peak
Target.com on “Black Friday”- (AWS )
Other retailers had severe performance
problems and intermittent unavailability
Target’s and Amazon’s sites were just slower
by about 50%.

Key Considerations for Adoption
Demand Patterns –constant or varying ?-
High Customization needed ?- (No or private
cloud)
Stage of Company – Start-up or established ?
(Yes)
Is Application Mission Critical ?- ( Do not go for
public cloud )
Stringent Compliance Needs ?- (No)
12
Key Consideration (continued..)
Integration Requirements of SaaS based
applications- (Think about integration
with other business applications)
Privacy requirements- (which cloud to
choose)
Performance Needs ?
