The document discusses cloud computing, including its definition, benefits, usage scenarios, and architecture. Cloud computing refers to accessing software and hardware resources over the internet. It allows for scalability, cost efficiency, and location independence. Examples of usage scenarios include innovations, virtual worlds, e-business, and personal hobbies. The cloud architecture aims to provide transparent, scalable, securely monitored resources and includes data centers, provisioning managers, and virtualization components.

AGENDA
 What is Cloud Computing?
 Benefits of using Cloud Computing.
 Cloud Computing Usage Scenarios.
 Cloud Computing Architecture.
WHAT IS CLOUD COMPUTING?
 Internet (cloud) based
development and use of Computer
Technology (computing).

 Using the internet to access


someone else’s software running on
someone else’s hardware in
someone else’s data centre.

 Host a variety of different


workloads, including batch-style
back end jobs & interactive apps.
 The concept incorporates
Infrastructure as a service (IaaS),
Platform as a service (PaaS) and
Software as a service(SaaS) as well as
Web 2.0 and other recent technology
trends.

 Examples of SaaS vendors include


salesforce.com and google apps which
provide common business applications
online.

 Hundreds of organisations are


already offering free services in the
cloud.
BENEFITS
Cloud Computing played a significant role in dynamic growth in
IT. Organisations are switching from company owned hardware
and software assets to per-use service-based models.
Following are some benefits that Cloud Computing provides.

 Cost Efficient
 Quick availability of computer resources
 Foster Development
 Location Independence
 Scalability
 Reliability
USAGE SCENARIO
Cloud Computing can play a significant role in variety of areas.

1. INNOVATIONS

 Innovators can request resources online through a simple


web interface.

 Upon approval from the cloud resource administrator, the


Cloud provisions the server.

 The Innovator have the resources available for use within a


few minutes or an hour depending on what type of resource
was requested.
2. VIRTUAL WORLDS

 Virtual worlds require significant amounts of computing power,


as they are very large. E.g. Massively multiplayer online games.

 A company can achieve significant cost & time savings.This can be


shown by the following example.

 A company has 3 Realms(arbitary areas within a virtual world that


support a specific subset of the world) A,B,C.It discovers increase
in use and decline in response time of realm A & decrease in use
of realms B & C.

 Then,company initiates a Cloud Rebalance request to deprovision


5 servers each from realms B & C and provisions 10 servers to
realm A.After a couple of minutes,10 servers are relocated &
response time of realm A returns to acceptable levels.

 Thus with the help of cloud computing,this work accomplished in


minutes.
3. E-BUSINESS

 In E-Business,scalability can be achieved by making new servers


available as needed.

 If a company has significantly large cloud,it could schedule


computer resources to be provisioned each evening,weekend or
during a peak season.

4. PERSONAL HOBBIES

Innovation is no longer a concept developed and owned by


companies and businesses.It is becoming popular at the
individual level,and more individuals are coming up with
innovations.
CLOUD ARCHITECTURE
Cloud Architecture comprises of 2 things:

1. REQUIREMENT OF CLOUD COMPUTING INFRASTRUCTURE

Cloud Computing needs to build a Dynamic,Intelligent


infrastructure in order to provide fast and secure applications
or services in an on-demand enviornment.For this it has
following 4 core properties:

 Transparency
 Scalability
 Intelligent monitoring
 Security
 Transparency

 In Cloud Computing, services are delivered transparently


regardless of the Physical implementation within the cloud i.e.
multiple resources appear to the user as a single resource.

 E.g. Transparency allows additional servers to be added to the


provisioned service without interrupting the service. When a
service is provisioned to many users then it require more
servers.

 Scalability

 The application delivery solution provides the ability to


transparently scale - itself , service infrastucture & on-demand
dynamic application.

 This requires a virtualized structure such that resources can be


provisioned and de-provisioned easily, quickly and
automatically.
 Intelligent Monitoring

 Cloud Computing has intelligent monitoring capabilities to


understand
o when a server is overwhelmed.
o when network conditions are adversely affecting
application performance.

 Security

 Security is the first priority for mega data center as it is the first
entry point into the cloud data. Prime securities are
o Network security.
o Protocol security.
o Transport layer security.
o Application security.
2. HIGH-LEVEL ARCHITECTURE
 The High-Level Architecture of the cloud computing platform
comprises of
o Data centre
o Provisioning Manager
o Monitor
o Websphere Application Server
o DB2
o Virtualization Components

 Provisioning Manager
 It uses websphere Application Server to:
o Communicate the provisioning status.
o Communicate the availablility of resources in data centre.
o Schedule provisioning and deprovisioning of resources.
o Reserve resource for future use.
HIGH-LEVEL ARCHITECTURE

PRESENTATION NAME
Company Name

It focuses on the core back end of cloud computing platform;


it does not address the user interface.
 As a result of Provisioning,Virtual machines & Physical machines
are created

 Monitoring server monitors the health of the servers.

 DB2 (Database server) - manager uses to store the resource data.

 Monitoring agents communicate with the monitoring server to


get health of virtual machines and provide the same to the user.

 There are 2 user interfaces to provision servers.

1. Feature rich :- Fully loaded with the Web Sphere suite of


products .

2. Basic screens :- For making provisioning requests .


All requests are forwaded to provisioning manager for
provisiong/deprovisioning of servers.
CONCLUSION
 Cloud computing is an updated version of utility computing :
basically “virtual servers” available over the internet.

 It comes into focus only when we think about what IT always


needs :
o A way to increase capacity.
o Add capabilities on the fly without investing in a
new infrastructure.
o Training new personnel.
o Licensing new software.

 CC is a utility-style infrastructure provider as a part of mix like


SaaS (software as a service) providers such as salesforce.com

 CC = Saas + Utility Computing
