Computing
Cloud computing is a paradigm shift in how we access
and use computing resources. It allows us to access
computing power, storage, and software over the
internet, eliminating the need for physical infrastructure
on-premises.
Virtualization and Hypervisors
Virtualization Hypervisors
Virtualization is the technology that allows a A hypervisor is a software layer that manages
single physical computer to run multiple virtual the virtualization process, allocating resources
machines. Each virtual machine acts like an to virtual machines and ensuring their smooth
independent computer with its own operating operation. It acts as an intermediary between
system and applications. the physical hardware and the virtual machines
running on it.
Cloud Computing Service
Models
1 Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
Provides basic computing resources like servers, storage, and
networking, allowing users to build and manage their own
applications and operating systems.
Resource Pooling
Cloud providers pool resources, allowing multiple users to share a common pool of
computing resources, increasing efficiency and reducing costs.
Rapid Elasticity
Cloud resources can be scaled up or down quickly and easily to meet fluctuating
demands, providing agility and responsiveness.
Cloud Computing
Deployment Models
Public Cloud
Cloud services are offered by third-party providers over
the public internet, accessible to anyone.
Private Cloud
Cloud infrastructure is dedicated to a single organization
and managed internally, offering greater security and
control.
Hybrid Cloud
Combines elements of both public and private cloud
models, allowing organizations to leverage the benefits of
both approaches.
Serverless Computing
Focus on Code
Serverless computing allows developers to focus solely on writing code without worrying
about server management or infrastructure.
Automatic Scaling
Serverless platforms automatically scale resources based on demand, ensuring optimal
performance and cost efficiency.
Pay-per-Use Pricing
You only pay for the resources you consume, eliminating the need for upfront investments or fixed costs.
Faster Deployment
Benefits of Cloud Computing
1 Cost Savings
Cloud computing eliminates the need for expensive hardware investments
and reduces operational costs.
3 Increased Efficiency
Cloud services automate many tasks, freeing up IT professionals to focus on
more strategic initiatives.
4 Improved Collaboration
Cloud platforms facilitate collaboration and data sharing among teams,
enabling better communication and productivity.
