Trends in Recent Technology: Cloud Computing

This presentation provides an overview of cloud computing, including its definition, characteristics, service models, deployment models, security concerns, and implications. Cloud computing allows users to access applications and store/access files online through the internet rather than locally on individual devices. It is characterized by maintenance ease, virtualization, location/device independence, and API accessibility. Common cloud service models are Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). The presentation also discusses private, public, hybrid and community deployment models and how cloud computing may impact different industries going forward.

What is cloud
computing?
Cloud computing is a technology that uses the internet and
central remote servers to maintain data and applications.

Cloud computing allows consumers and businesses to use


applications without installation and access their personal
files at any computer with internet access.

This technology allows for much more efficient computing


by centralizing storage, memory, processing and
bandwidth.
Cloud computing is the delivery of computing as a service
rather than product where shared resources, software and
information are provided to users as an utility(like power
grid) over network.

A simple example of cloud computing is Yahoo


email, Gmail, or Hotmail etc. You don't need a
software or a server to use them. All a consumer
would need is just an internet connection and you
can start sending emails.
The server and email management software is all
on the cloud ( internet) and is totally managed by
the cloud service provider Yahoo , Google etc. The
consumer gets to use the software alone and
enjoy the benefits.
The analogy is , 'If you need milk , would you buy
a cow ?' . Just to get this benefit (milk) why should
a consumer buy a (cow) software /hardware?

Characteristics of cloud
computing
Maintenance:- maintenance is easier , because they do not
need to be installed on each users computer and can be
accessed from different places.
Virtualization:- virtualization technology allows servers and
storage devices to be shared and utilization be increased.
Device and location independence:-enable users to access
systems using a web browser regardless of their location or
what device they are using (e.g:- PC, mobile phone).
Application programming interface:-(API) accessibility to
software that enables machines to interact with cloud in the
same way the user interface facilitates interaction between
humans and computers.

cloud service models


Infrastructure as a service( Iaas ).
Platform as a service( Paas ).
Software as a service( Saas ).

Infrastructure as a service:-A consumer can get


service through the Internet. This type of service
is called Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Internetbased services such as storage and databases are
part of the IaaS.
Platform as a service:-PaaS offers full or partial
application development that users can access
typically including operating system, programming
language execution environment, database, and
web server.
Software as a service:-In this model, cloud
providers install and operate application software
in the cloud and cloud users access the software
from cloud clients. This eliminates the need to
install and run applications on the users system.

Deployment models
Private cloud:-The cloud infrastructure is operated solely
for An organization.
Eg:-Amazon virtual private cloud.
community cloud:-The cloud infrastructure is shared by
several organizations and supports a specific community
that has shared concerns.
Eg:-Google apps for government.
public cloud:-The cloud infrastructure is made available to
the general public.
Eg:-Microsoft windows azure.
Hybrid cloud:-The cloud infrastructure is a composition of
two or more clouds (private, community, or public).
Eg:-VMware vcloud.

Fear of cloud
What are the security concerns that are preventing
companies from taking advantage of cloud? These
problems may only become apparent after more
widespread adoption of cloud computing as a technology.
Cheap data and data analysis:- The rise of cloud
computing has created enormous data sets that can be
monetized by applications such as advertising.
Google, for instance, leverages its cloud infrastructure to
collect and analyze consumer data for its advertising
network. Collection and analysis of data is now possible
cheaply.
Because of the cloud, attackers potentially have massive,
centralized databases available for analysis. For example,
Google is essentially doing cheap data mining when it
returns search results. How much more privacy did one
have before one could be googled?

New directions

The core issue is that with the advent of the


cloud, the cloud provider also has some control of
the cloud users data.

Information-centric security:- In order for


enterprises to extend control to data in the cloud,
Data needs to be self-describing and defending,
regardless of its environment. Data needs to be
encrypted and packaged with a usage policy.

Privacy-Enhanced
Business
Intelligence:-A
different approach to retaining control of data is to
require the encryption of all cloud data.
The problem is that encryption limits data use.

In particular searching
becomes problematic.

For example, if data is stored in clear-text, one can


efficiently search for a document by specifying a
keyword. This is impossible to do with encryption
schemes.

Cryptography may offer new tools to solve these


problems. Cryptographers have recently invented
versatile encryption schemes that allow operation and
computation on the cipher text.

What does a shift towards


cloud computing mean?
A paradigm shift to cloud computing will affect
many different sub-categories in computer
industry such as software companies, internet
service
providers
(ISPs)
and
hardware
manufacturers.

Who gains?
Internet-based companies that could gain
from a shift towards cloud computing
include:Amazon.com.
Google.
Microsoft.

Who loses out?


Traditional software producers that could
have some catching up to do if cloud
computing ultimately wins out include:Oracle.
SAP(system applications and products in data
processing).

Cloud computing
scenario

Latest updates of cloud


computing
A Microsoft-commissioned study, conducted by IDC,
predicts that cloud computing will generate over two
million jobs in India and nearly 14 million new jobs
worldwide by 2015. More than 50 per cent of these jobs
will be generated in the small and medium businesses.
Within two months, Hewlett-Packard will offer a large
and powerful cloud computing service similar to Amazon
Web Services, but with more business-oriented features,
according the head of the project.
Today, Intel IT operates a massive, worldwide computing
environment that supports about 78,000 Intel
employees and includes approximately 100,000 servers.

Conclusion
Cloud computing is still struggling in its infancy,
with positive and negative comments made on its
possible implementation for a large-sized
enterprise.
Cloud computing holds some strong promises.
Highly available.
Dynamically allocate resources.
Pay only for resources that u use.
But of course there are pitfalls. Cloud computing
might not be the best solution for you. It depends
on the size of your company, your line of
business.
