Background
What is the server consisting of?
Network : Cables, router, switch
connected to each other
CPU/GPU/TPU: Compute
Power
RAM : Memory
Sql/no-sql : For data
storage
Traditional IT Approach
Google/Amazon
was made in a garage Which
means they had a server hosted in
their garage...
Example ?
Traditional IT Approach --> Simplified IT Approach
Example ?
Google
Can you
1. Pay for Rent
afford this ?
2. Pay for maintenance
3. Pay for Damage etc.
What do we want ?
We need "On-Demand" delivery of computation, memory, storage, database
01
02
We want to pay only for what we use - "Pay-as-you-go" pricing
03 Flexibility / Elasticity to expand and contract. Example: Electricity Supply in our
house.
Easy-to-use UI for all type of users. Windows/Ubuntu etc.

The Deployment Models of the Cloud
Private Cloud Public Cloud Hybrid Cloud
• IITD--> Badal • Third Party • Private+Public
• IITkgp-->Megh Providers like AWS, • Keep some servers
• Complete Control, Azure, Google on premises and
specific Business Cloud etc. extend some
need, not • capabilities to the
accessible to public Cloud

• Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) :
Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) is a form of
cloud computing service that offers
Types of Cloud Computing
compute, storage and networking resources
on-demand, usually on a pay-as-you-go
basis. Businesses can purchase resources on-
demand and as-needed instead of having to
buy the hardware outright.
Amazon EC2 (on AWS)
• Platform as a Service (PaaS) : Platform-as-a-
Service (PaaS) provides a framework for
application creation and deployment. The
technical stack (e.g., AWS Beanstalk, Google
App Engine) required for application
development is available on the cloud, which
requires no download or local installation.
Windows Azure (Microsoft)
• Software as a Service (SaaS) : Software as a
Service (SaaS) is a web-based software
deployment model that makes the software
accessible through a web browser. As a user
of SaaS software, you don’t care where the
software is hosted, which operating system it
uses, or which language it is written in. Source: [Link]

AWS Important Points
• Map : [Link]
• A region is a cluster of data centers • Most AWS services are region-scoped
• Each availability zone (AZ) is one or more discrete data centers with redundant power, networking, and connectivity
• Account Opening : AWS Free tier account vs AWS Educate Account
• Shared Responsibility Model
