TWO MARKS
1.What is cloud service

Cloud services are infrastructure, platforms, or software that are hosted by

third-party providers and made available to users through the internet.

Cloud services facilitate the flow of user data from front-end clients (e.g.,
users’ servers, tablets, desktops, laptops—anything on the users’ ends),
through the internet, to the provider’s systems, and back.

2.What is public cloud

The public cloud is defined as computing services offered by third-party
providers over the public Internet, making them available to anyone who
wants to use or purchase them. They may be free or sold on-demand,
allowing customers to pay only per usage for the CPU cycles, storage, or
bandwidth they consume.

3.What is private cloud

A private cloud is a cloud computing environment dedicated to a single
organization. Any cloud infrastructure has underlying compute resources like
CPU and storage that you provision on demand through a self-service portal.
In a private cloud, all resources are isolated and in the control of one
organization.

4.What is Virtual Machine

A virtual machine (VM) is a digital version of a physical computer. Virtual
machine software can run programs and operating systems, store data,
connect to networks, and do other computing functions, and requires
maintenance such as updates and system monitoring.

5. Characteristics of Cloud Computing

1. On-demand self-services: The Cloud computing services does not

require any human administrators, user themselves are able to provision,
monitor and manage computing resources as needed.
2. Broad network access: The Computing services are generally provided
over standard networks and heterogeneous devices.

3. Rapid elasticity: The Computing services should have IT resources that

are able to scale out and in quickly and on as needed basis. Whenever the
user require services it is provided to him and it is scale out as soon as its
requirement gets over.

6. Cloud infrastructure components

1. Computing
2. Networking
3. Storage
7.What is Hypervisor
Hypervisor :
Hypervisor is a firmware or a low level program which is a key to enable
virtualization. It is used to divide and allocate cloud resources between several
customers. As it monitors and manages cloud services/resources that’s why
hypervisor is called as VMM (Virtual Machine Monitor) or (Virtual Machine
Manager).

8. Characteristics of IAAS

 Resources-as-a-service. ...
 Pay-as-you-go pricing model. ...
 Scalable services. ...
 Automated administrative tasks. ...
 Platform virtualization.

9.What is IAAS?
IaaS, or Infrastructure as a Service, is a cloud computing model that provides on-
demand access to computing resources such as servers, storage, networking, and
virtualization.

IaaS is attractive because acquiring computing resources to run applications or store

data the traditional way requires time and capital. Organizations must purchase
equipment through procurement processes that can take months. They must invest
in physical spaces, typically specialized rooms with power and cooling. And after
deploying the systems, they need IT professionals to manage and maintain them.
