INTRODUCTION

The following discusses cloud computing, including various service models such as software,

infrastructure, and Platform as a service. Additionally, it covers deployment models such as private,

public, community, and hybrid clouds. The benefits and challenges associated with cloud computing

are also outlined.

provides a private cloud for its users, including Google Docs, email, analytics, and more. Microsoft

offers Microsoft Office 365, which allows data and business intelligence to be transferred to the cloud.

Salesforce.com offers cloud services for developers to create customized cloud solutions.

This text covers the characteristics, service models, deployment models, benefits, and challenges of

cloud computing

History

Cloud Computing is a concept that originated in the 1950s with the advent of centralized processing

unit desktop computers that were accessed using thin/static clients. Since then, it has evolved from

fixed clients to dynamic ones and from software to services. Cloud Computing has many benefits.

 On-demand service that can be used without interacting with the cloud service provider

 Cost-effective due to better efficiencies and higher usage. It only requires an Internet

 Cloud Computing uses many redundancies, making it more reliable.

MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF CLOUD COMPUTING

Cloud computing is a virtualized software platform that allows sharing of resources such as physical

infrastructure, storage, and media capabilities. It aims to utilize the available commercial

infrastructure across multiple clients. The Platform also has dynamic provisioning capabilities that

enable services to be provided based on current demand requirements. This is done through program

customers are charged for their services during the billing period.

In summary, cloud computing allows for the sharing and scalable deployment of services as required

from anywhere, and customers are charged based on actual usage.

A cloud computing environment has five key features, including universal access, scalable services,

on-demand services, pay-per-use billing, and collaboration. It also offers reliability, customization,

defined services, control, and virtualization.

SOME EXAMPLES OF CLOUD SERVICE PROVIDERS

Google.com has become synonymous with the word "search," and people often say, "Just Google it,

and you'll find everything." However, Google offers more than just search services. It also provides

cloud solutions such as G-mail, Google Docs, Picasa, Google Analytics, Google AdWords and

AdSense.

Storage Service, Amazon Virtual Private Cloud, Amazon CloudFront, Amazon Relational Database,

and Amazon Simple Queue Service.

APPLICATIONS OF CLOUD COMPUTING

Cloud computing is one of the most popular computing resources available on the internet. It

simplifies the management and sharing of resources through the cloud. This technology has become

an active component in several industries, including:

1. E-Learning provides a conducive learning environment for students, teachers, and professionals.

They can easily connect to their organization's cloud and access information and data from there.

2. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP): Companies can install ERP in the cloud to handle

operations, staff, payroll, and other tasks that are typically complex and expensive to manage.

CLOUD USE CASES

We conduct an examination of group requirement usage situations to understand how technology is

used and draw best practices. This analysis helps define requirements, provide input for classification,

and verify architecture. It also helps identify key stakeholders.

When it comes to moving a company's IT resources to the cloud, the right cloud provider and

deployment model are determined by several factors, such as business needs and requirements.

Besides technical considerations, other factors, such as business, company, or personnel elements,

must also be taken into account. Some older systems may need to be redesigned, and the transition

period from internal to cloud services must be fully considered.

Different methods exist to develop usage scenarios, such as looking at various business models and

 Company to Cloud to Endeavor Private Cloud

 Changing Cloud Providers

 Integration Cloud

It is important to note that these scenarios are developed based on a specific effort required. For

example, a company may want to move part of its IT system to the Cloud to gain Cloud benefits such

as switching from CAPEX to OPEX IT costs and improving service speed.

The process of moving to the Cloud only happens in one go. For larger companies, it usually begins

with implementing a private cloud and moving local IT services to cloud-based ones. This leads to the

readiness of the whole IT department and its preparedness to outsource some services to the public

cloud, creating a hybrid cloud. The next step is to move functional IT areas or some branches entirely

THE CLOUD COMPUTING PARADIGM

The following discusses computer requirements that share a common feature of utilizing cloud

been in the spotlight recently, with debates about its safety and reliability. There needs to be more

clarity about cloud computing and how it compares to traditional computing. At OpenWorld 2008,

Larry Ellison, CEO of Corp., redefined cloud computing to include all aspects of computing, causing a

split in the industry. Some believed he was right, while others disagreed. Ellison argued that cloud

computing wasn't a trend but a concept that had been around for years. In September 2012, Ellison

launched an Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud service, proving his point. However, many

vague descriptions of cloud computing still need to be clarified for people. The National Institute of

Standards and Technology defines cloud computing as a model allowing on-demand access to a

shared pool of configurable computing resources. The key difference between cloud computing and

predecessor, Utility Computing. The main objective of cloud computing is to reduce or eliminate

challenges associated with normal application development, maximize business IT systems to focus

on business strategy, and determine how to best utilize cloud-based IT to support that strategy. This

paper provides a detailed explanation of the characteristics, uses, and specific examples of cloud

computing.
