With traditional desktop computing, we run copies of software programs on our own computer. The documents we create are stored on our own pc.
Although documents can be accessed from other computers on the network, they cant be accessed by computers outside the network. This is PC-centric.
With cloud computing, the software programs one use arent run
Anyone with permission can not only access the documents, but can also edit and collaborate on those documents in real
time.
Unlike traditional computing, this cloud computing model isnt PC-centric, its document-centric.
Key to the definition of cloud computing is the cloud itself. Here , the cloud is a large group of interconnected computers.
This cloud of computers extends beyond a single company or enterprise. The applications and data served by the cloud are available to broad group of users, cross-enterprise and cross-platform.
Access is via the Internet. Any authorized user can access these docs and apps from any computer over any Internet connection.
Google 101
Google has invested more than $2 billion a year in data centers for cloud computing. By far the leader in the technology Marissa Mayer, Vice President, Search Products & User Experience, talks about Google Clouds, its product, uncertainties and future expansions and ideas
Network made up of millions of cheap servers, that would store staggering amounts of data, including numerous copies of the world wide web Makes search faster, helping ferret out answers to billions of queries in a fraction of a second
Azure
Internet-scale cloud computing and services platform hosted in Microsoft data centers Provides a range of functionality to build applications that span from consumer web to enterprise scenarios Designed to help developers quickly and easily create, deploy, manage, and distribute web services and applications on the internet.
Cloud Computing Is User Centric : Once as a user are connected to the cloud, whatever is stored there
documents, messages, images, applications, whateverbecomes
In addition, not only is the data, but one can also share it with others.
In effect, any device that accesses your data in the cloud also becomes yours.
manner.
It all starts with the front-end interface seen by individual users. This is how users select a task or service (either starting an application or opening a document). The users request then gets passed to the system management, which finds the correct resources and then calls the systems appropriate provisioning services. These services carve out the necessary resources in the cloud, launch the appropriate web
cloud service.
Cloud services can include anything from calendar and contact applications
to word processing and presentations. With a cloud service, the application itself is hosted in the cloud.
An individual user runs the application over the Internet, typically within a
web browser. The browser accesses the cloud service and an instance of the application is opened within the browser window. Once launched, the web-based application operates and behaves like a standard desktop application.
Road Warriors:
One can access a single version of your document from any location.
Provides all the facilities necessary to support the complete process of building and delivering web applications and services, all available over the internet Infrastructure providers can transparently alter the platforms for their customers unique needs
Defined as service-on-demand, where a provider will license software tailored Infrastructure providers can allow customers to run applications off their infrastructure, but transparent to the end user
Customers can utilize greater computing power while saving on the following
Cost Space Power Consumption Facility
Improved Performance
Lower Hardware and Software Maintenance
Security Issues Internet connection Too many platforms Location of Servers Time for Transition Speed
Many companies are only using cloud computing for small projects. The trust hasnt been accepted Details such as licensing, privacy, security, compliance and network monitoring need to be finalized for the trust to be realized
An expansion of Microsoft live@edu More useful spending of technology budgets Classroom collaboration Office Web Applications Google Docs
No more backing up files to thumb drives or syncing computers together Services replace devices A single hard drive for the rest of a persons life, accessible anywhere with internet
Resources are expected to triple by 2012, from $16 billion to $42 billion Cloud computing is said to be the foundation of the next 20 years of IT technology
The applications and data served by the cloud are available to broad group of users, cross-enterprise and cross-platform.
