Why cloud is awesome!

Cloud computing allows on-demand access to computing resources like servers and networks that can be quickly provisioned with minimal management effort. This contrasts with traditional on-premise IT systems that require upfront investment in hardware and software. The cloud offers several benefits such as lower costs since no upfront investment is required, greater flexibility since resources can be scaled up or down quickly as needed, and improved productivity and innovation since resources are accessible from anywhere. While some concerns around security and control remain for large enterprises, cloud vendors are addressing these issues by providing greater administrative capabilities within their cloud offerings.
Why cloud is awesome!
- 1. Cloud Computing Why it is awesome !
- 2. Traditional IT Consumption Sir, each dish comes as a la carte. No other choices But I want to eat various dishes in small portions
- 3. IT as a Service Consumption We have fixed buffet with a fixed minimum price, eat whatever is in the menu But I am allergic to most of the food in the menu
- 4. Cloud Consumption Welcome, you can order anything from our wide array of food choices in the menu. You can also order in small or large portions. We will bill based on consumption. This is awesome!
- 5. Options available to Business Based on understandings from public resources Virtual package of IT Software, Hardware and Services Consumed as Unbundled commodity Cloud Outsourcing the provisioning of IT IT as Services Installation and maintenance of hardware, software, and people resources On-Premise
- 6. Cloud Demystified • On-demand self service, which allows business units to get the computing resources they need without having to go through IT for equipment. • Broad network access, which enables applications to be built in ways that align with how businesses operate today – mobile, multi-device, etc. • Resource pooling, which allows for pooling of computing resources to serve multiple consumers. • Rapid elasticity, which allows for quick scalability or downsizing of resources depending on demand. • Measured service, which means that business units only pay for the computational resources they use. Translation: IT costs match business success.
