What is Cloud
Computing?
• Definition: Delivery of computing services
(servers, storage, databases, networking,
software) over the internet (the cloud).
• Benefits:
• - Cost Efficiency: Pay-as-you-go pricing.
• - Scalability: Easily scale resources up or down.
• - Flexibility: Access services from anywhere.
• - Disaster Recovery: Robust backup and recovery
solutions.
• - Automatic Updates: Always up-to-date
infrastructure and software.
Types of Cloud Services
• IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service): Virtualized
computing resources.
• PaaS (Platform as a Service): Hardware and
software tools for application development.
• SaaS (Software as a Service): Software
applications delivered over the internet.
Deployment Models
• Public Cloud: Services shared across organizations.
• Private Cloud: Services dedicated to a single
organization.
• Hybrid Cloud: Combination of public and private
clouds.
