What is Cloud Computing?
• Cloud Computing is a general term used to describe a new class of
network based computing that takes place over the Internet,
– basically a step on from Utility Computing
– a collection/group of integrated and networked hardware, software
and Internet infrastructure (called a platform).
– Using the Internet for communication and transport provides
hardware, software and networking services to clients
– Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand
network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources
(e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services)
• These platforms hide the complexity and details of the underlying
infrastructure from users and applications by providing very simple
graphical interface or API (Applications Programming Interface).
3
What is Cloud Computing?
• In addition, the platform provides on demand
services, that are always on, anywhere,
anytime and any place.
• Pay for use and as needed, elastic
– scale up and down in capacity and functionalities
• The hardware and software services are
available to
– general public, enterprises, corporations and
businesses markets
4
Cloud Summary
• Cloud computing is an umbrella term used to refer to
Internet based development and services
• A number of characteristics define cloud data,
applications services and infrastructure:
– Remotely hosted: Services or data are hosted on remote
infrastructure.
– Ubiquitous: Services or data are available from anywhere.
– Commodified: The result is a utility computing model
similar to traditional that of traditional utilities, like gas
and electricity - you pay for what you would want!
5
• In short we can say that
• Cloud computing is Internet-based
computing, whereby shared resources,
software and information are provided to
computers and other devices on-demand, like
the electricity grid.
• The cloud computing is a culmination of
numerous attempts at large scale computing
with seamless access to virtually limitless
resources.

7
– The cloud symbol is typically used to represent the
internet.
– Cloud computing is now commonly used to describe the
delivery of software, infrastructure and storage services
over the internet.
– Users of the cloud can benefit from other organizations
delivering services associated with their data, software
and other computing needs on their behalf, without the
need to own or run the usual physical hardware (such as
servers) and software (such as email) themselves.
– Cloud computing is the next stage in the evolution of the
internet, it provides the means through which everything
from computing power to computing infrastructure,
applications and business processes — can be delivered
to you as a service wherever and whenever you need
them.
Why use cloud computing?
1. Reduce capex costs and improve the predictability of on-
going operating expenses.
2. Enable your employees to work from anywhere.
3. Access your data anytime, without risks associated with
physical storage since this is managed by cloud providers.
4. Avoid complex disaster recovery planning; let cloud
computing vendors take care of this for you.
5. Access the same class of technology as your bigger, more
established competitors .
6. Let cloud computing vendors do your server maintenance for
you, freeing up your resources for more important tasks
7. Improve your document control, with all your files in one
central location, allowing everyone to work from one central
copy . 8
HISTORY AND EVOLUTION
• Cloud computing is one the most innovative technology of our
time. Following is a brief history of Cloud computing.
9
• EARLY 1960S:- The computer scientist John McCarthy, come up with
concept of timesharing, and enabling Organization to simultaneously use an
expensive mainframe. This computing is described as a significant
contribution to the development of the Internet, and a pioneer of Cloud
computing.
• IN 1969:- The idea of an “Intergalactic Computer Network” or “Galactic
Network” (a computer networking concept similar to today’s Internet) was
introduced by J.C.R. Licklider, who was responsible for enabling the
development of ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network).
His vision was for everyone on the globe to be interconnected and being
able to access programs and data at any site, from anywhere.
• IN 1970:- Using virtualization software like VMware. It become possible to
run more than one Operating System simultaneously in an isolated
environment. It was possible to run a completely different Computer (virtual
machine) inside a different Operating System.
• IN 1997:- The first known definition of the term “Cloud Computing” seems
to be by Prof. Ramnath Chellappa in Dallas in 1997 – “A computing paradigm
where the boundaries of computing will be determined by economic
rationale rather than technical limits alone.”
10
• IN 1999
• The arrival of Salesforce.com in 1999 pioneered the concept of delivering enterprise
applications via simple website. The services firm covered the way for both specialist
and mainstream software firms to deliver applications over the Internet.
• IN 2003:- The first public release of Xen, which creates a Virtual Machine Monitor
(VMM) also known as a hypervisor, a software system that allows the execution of
multiple virtual guest operating systems simultaneously on a single machine.
• IN 2006:- In 2006, Amazon expanded its cloud services. First was its Elastic Compute
cloud (EC2), which allowed people to access computers and run their own applications
on them, all on the cloud. Then they brought out Simple Storage Service (S3). This
introduced the pay-as-you-go model to both users and the industry as a whole, and it
has basically become standard practice now.
• IN 2013:-The Worldwide Public Cloud Services Market totalled £78bn, up 18.5 per
cent on 2012, with IaaS (infrastructure-as-a-service) the fastest growing market
service.
• IN 2014:- In 2014, global business spending for infrastructure and services related to
the cloud will reach an estimated £103.8bn, up 20% from the amount spent in 2013
(Constellation Research).
11
How Cloud Computing works?
• For understanding How Cloud computing
works, first you must understand – What is
Cloud computing? and Benefits of Cloud
computing, second you should understand the
different types of Cloud offering like
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a
Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS) or
must say “X as a Service, (XaaS)” or “Anything
as a Service”.
12
• The fist building block of Cloud is infrastructure where
The Cloud will be implemented. It is a wrong assumption that
environment should be virtualized, but cloud is a way to
request resource in on-demand way. If you have a solution to
provide resource in on-demand way on bare metal, then it is
also a Cloud service. This infrastructure supports different
types of Cloud Service like IaaS, PaaS, SaaS etc.
To provide these services you need Operating System
Service, which will be charged with requested service.
Business System Service (BSS) – This is mainly used to
validate the request and create the invoice for the consumed
services. There are multiple metrics, which are used to create
the invoice like Number of users, CPUs, Memory, Storage,
I/Os usage hours/month etc.
13
• How Cloud computing works in reality
• For accessing Cloud services, first step is to register on Cloud
service provider portal and create an account. Now login into
portal and you can order your services though the Cloud
service consumer area. These services had been created by
Cloud service provider. These services can be a simple virtual
machine (VM), some network component, an Application
service or any platform service etc.
• Business System Service (BSS)
• The Cloud provider will validate your request through Business
System Service (BSS), if the validation is OK (like Credit Card
detail, Contract etc.), Service provider will provide the
requested service through Operating System Service.
• To access these all service Cloud service provider will provide
you a credentials to access or make any request for service.
Monthly invoice get generate for services used by you.

Cloud Computing Characteristics
16
Common Characteristics:
Low Cost Software
Virtualization Service Orientation
Advanced Security
Homogeneity
Massive Scale Resilient Computing
Geographic Distribution
Essential Characteristics:
Resource Pooling
Broad Network Access Rapid Elasticity
Measured Service
On Demand Self-Service
Adopted from: Effectively and Securely Using the Cloud Computing Paradigm by peter Mell, Tim
Grance
1. Shared / Pooled Resources:
• Resources are drawn from a common pool
• Common resources build economies of scale
• Common infrastructure runs at high efficiency
2. Broad Network Access:
• Open standards and APIs
• Almost always IP, HTTP, and REST
• Available from anywhere with an internet connection
17
3. On-Demand Self-Service:
. Completely automated
• Users abstracted from the implementation
• Near real-time delivery (seconds or minutes)
• Services accessed through a self-serve
web interface
4. Scalable and Elastic:
Resources dynamically-allocated between users
• Additional resources dynamically-released when needed
• Fully automated
5. Metered by Use:
Services are metered, like a utility
• Users pay only for services used
• Services can be cancelled at any time 18
Deployment Models
Public cloud
• Public cloud (off-site and remote) describes cloud computing where resources are
dynamically provisioned on an on-demand, self-service basis over the Internet, via web
applications/web services, open API, from a third-party provider who bills on a utility
computing basis.
Private cloud
• A private cloud environment is often the first step for a corporation prior to adopting a public
cloud initiative. Corporations have discovered the benefits of consolidating shared services
on virtualized hardware deployed from a primary datacenter to serve local and remote users.
Hybrid cloud
• A hybrid cloud environment consists of some portion of computing resources on-site (on
premise) and off-site (public cloud). By integrating public cloud services, users can leverage
cloud solutions for specific functions that are too costly to maintain on-premise such as
virtual server disaster recovery, backups and test/development environments.
Community cloud
• A community cloud is formed when several organizations with similar requirements share
common infrastructure. Costs are spread over fewer users than a public cloud but more than
a single tenant.

Editor's Notes

  • #16: Take the poll Have you used the cloud For one, two, three, or more of these services
  • #17: ScalabilityInfrastructure capacity allows for traffic spikes and minimizes delays. ResiliencyCloud providers have mirrored solutions to minimize downtime in the event of a disaster. This type of resiliency can give businesses the sustainability they need during unanticipated events. Homogeneity: No matter which cloud provider and architecture an organization uses, an open cloud will make it easy for them to work with other groups, even if those other groups choose different providers and architectures. On-demand self-service. A consumer can unilaterally provision computing capabilities, such as server time and network storage, as needed automatically without requiring human interaction with each service’s provider. Broad network access. Capabilities are available over the network and accessed through standard mechanisms that promote use by heterogeneous thin or thick client platforms (e.g., mobile phones, laptops, and PDAs). Resource pooling. Multi-tenant model.. There is a sense of location independence in that the customer generally has no control or knowledge over the exact location of the provided resources but may be able to specify location at a higher level of abstraction (e.g., country, state, or datacenter). Examples of resources include storage, processing, memory, network bandwidth, and virtual machines. Rapid elasticity. Capabilities can be rapidly and elastically provisioned, in some cases automatically, to quickly scale out and rapidly released to quickly scale in. To the consumer, the capabilities available for provisioning often appear to be unlimited and can be purchased in any quantity at any time. Measured Service. Cloud systems automatically control and optimize resource use by leveraging a metering capability at some level of abstraction appropriate to the type of service (e.g., storage, processing, bandwidth, and active user accounts).
