Overview on Cloud Computing

Cloud computing is computing

in which large groups of remote
servers are networked in such a
way to provide some centralized
service (i.e., data storage or
online access to computer
services or resources).

C2 3
Overview on Cloud Computing

Cloud computing ("the cloud") focuses on maximizing the effectiveness of the shared
resources.

Cloud resources are usually not only shared by multiple users but are also dynamically
reallocated per demand.

This approach should maximize the use of computing power thus reducing
operational and overhead costs as well since less power.

Overview on Cloud Computing

A cloud computer facility that serves: European users during European

business hours with a specific application (e.g., email) may reallocate the
same resources to serve North American users during North America's
business hours with a different application (e.g., a web server).

Overview on Cloud Computing

Cloud Computing allows an organization to move away from a traditional IT CAPEX

computing to the OPEX model
Clouds can be used for every function right from disaster recovery, business continuity
to a fully outsourced ICT service for an enterprise.
Cloud offerings are heterogeneous and without agreed interfaces.
Cloud providers fundamentally provide data centers for outsourcing.
There are security concerns if an organization places its valuable knowledge,
information and data on an external service;
There are fears over availability and business continuity with some recent examples
of failures

Cloud Computing Services

Cloud computing providers offer their services according to several fundamental

models:
Core Models:
IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service)
PaaS (Platform as a Service)
SaaS (Software as a Service)
Emerging Models (XasS - Everything as a Service) :
DaaS (Data as a Service)
BDaaS (Big Data as a Service)
CaaS (Communication as a Service)
NaaS (Network as a Service)

Categories of Cloud

Public Cloud: Provided to clients from a third party service

provider through the Internet..

Private Cloud: Data and processes are managed within the

enterprise without the limitations of network bandwidth,
security exposures and legal requirements.

Community/Hyprid Cloud: is controlled and used by a

group of enterprise which has shared interests which are
specific security requirements or a common mission.

Technologies and
Architecture

Cloud Computing Technologies

Cloud architecture usually entails multiple cloud components communicating with

each other via a loose coupling mechanism such as a messaging queue.

In the area of cloud computing, security depends largely on having the right
architecture for the right application.

Cloud Computing Technologies

Front End: Clients devices or a computer network and some applications which are
required for accessing the cloud computing system. All the cloud computing systems
do not provide the same interface to users.

Back End: The back end is cloud itself which may include numerous computer
machines, data storage systems and servers. Clusters of these clouds make a whole
cloud computing system.

12
Virtualization

Server Virtualization
Server virtualization is the division of a physical
server into smaller virtual servers to help maximize
the organizations server resources.

Benefits of Virtualization:
It allows every virtual server to run its own operating
system
Each virtual server can also be individually rebooted of one
another
Server virtualization also decreases costs since less
hardware is needed and that alone saves money
Server virtualization also saves space via consolidation
(rack space)
13
Virtualization

Desktop Virtualization

In Desktop Virtualization, classically a workstation is virtualized with all its applications,

user customizations and preferences all in a virtual machine.

14
Virtualization

Storage Virtualization
This is where the actual storage space, which used to be offered by SAN or NAS, is
virtualized. Virtualizing storage space means the organization is also virtualizing the
Virtual Machine disk files as well.

 Cloud Service Analysis

Cloud Service Analysis

The public cloud services market is expected to grow more than total $167 billion
worldwide by 2020.
Platform as a service (PaaS), including Application Development, Database
Management System, Business Intelligence Platform, Application Infrastructure and
Middleware services will be the fastest-growing segment of the market with more than
14% through 2020.
North America is the biggest region in the cloud services market, accounting for close
to 45% of all new spending on cloud services from 2015 through 2020.
Western Europe, regardless of the growth challenges in the region, remains the
second-largest region and will account for close to 41% of all new spending during the
same time period.

17
Cloud Service Segmentation

Business to Business (B2B):

In the Business to Business (B2B) business model, services are provided such as IaaS,
PaaS, SaaS, etc. to other businesses so that they can conduct business as part of their
own operations, which does not necessarily involved delivery of services to any other
entity.
Business to Business to Business (B2B2B): In the Business to Business to Business (B2B2B) business
model, cloud companies provide services to business so that they can provide services to other businesses

Business to Business to Consumer (B2B2C): In the Business to Business to Business (B2B2B) business
model, cloud companies provide services to business so that they can provide services to consumers

18
Emerging Cloud Based Applications
BigData as a Service (BDaaS)
The features necessary for BDaaS comprise of a high-functioning service-oriented
architecture, cloud virtualization capabilities, complex event-driven processing, Hadoop,
and business intelligence tools which offers analytics of this huge amount of data.

19
Emerging Cloud Based Applications
Whats the Big Deal with Big Data?
Data is being generated so rapidly and in such big amounts that conventional databases
are not able to hold the flow in volume in an affordable manner.
Additionally, these conventional databases are also not able to capture data unless it is
converted to a structured form.

Why BDaaS?
Set-up in Minutes
Affordable Pricing Model
No Expertise Required
Looking Forward

 Industry Verticals in the
Cloud

Insert Confidentiality Level in slide footer

Industry Verticals in the Cloud
The idea behind the industry specific cloud is to offer technology, business processes
and services uniquely tailored to the requirements of a particular vertical.
Pros
One-stop shop for key industry-specific applications and databases
Platform has been integrated, tested and validated by the cloud provider
Single point of service and support contact for the components of the cloud offering
Cons
Risk of vendor lock-in
Industry-specific or legislated certifications need to be verified

22
Finance and Banking Cloud
Banking & Financial Service organizations are probably the most advanced in terms of
technology adoption to run their business.

Financial institutions have to fulfill the Compliance and Regulatory expectations, which
gets further complicated because of their expansive products and geography coverage.
Technology is thus critical for existence of these institutions. IT budgets of these
institutes are significant and are ranging between of 3% to 4% of the revenue.

Telecommunications in the Cloud
This increased investment and reduced ROI is driving the telecom companies to invest
in cloud service market. As the demand of cloud serviced continues to grow, small,
medium and large companies will all require integrating and managing a variety of
cloud-related services.
The delivery model through the Cloud gets a number of important benefits that
reverse or greatly decrease the impact of issues troubling the introduction of new
services in the Telecommunications market.
The key features of a Cloud-based offering of any kind are:
Elastic capacity
Self-service
Pay-as-you-go
Virtualized
