Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

The Advantages & Disadvantages It Presents CC PublicDomainPictures

Page 2: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

Cloud ComputingContinuously growing!Services available without need of

powerful PCsDevices like smartphones can access

easily

CC GoodNCrazy

Page 3: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

How & Why?Companies with

huge server collections connected to the Internet

More widely available due to broadband and cheaper storage costs

CC Jamison_Judd

Change of Focus“Computer architectures should

shift the focus of Moore’s Law from increasing clock speed per chip to increasing the number of processor cores and threads per chip.”

CC Ioan Sam

Coming Changes

From Hard Disk Drives…

…To Solid State Drives

CC Simon Wüllhorst

Data ManagementShift from home desktops

towards next-gen data centresDatabase management systems

needed to control cloud capabilities

“Cloud computing provides environments to enable resource sharing

in terms of infrastructure, middleware and

application development platforms.”

Resource TypesTypically 4 different

types:◦Infrastructure resources◦Software resources◦Application resources◦Business processes

Shareable resources, support “open cloud” ethos

CC Richard Masoner/ Cyclelicious

Page 9: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

Infrastructure ResourcesIncludes “computing power,

storage and machine provisioning”

CC KinologikCC Google

Page 10: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

Software ResourcesMiddleware like cloud-based

operation systems, applications servers and databases

Eg, Red Hat or Traffic Server

CC Red HatCC Apache Traffic Server

Page 11: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

Application ResourcesCompanies

moving applications off home computers onto the Internet

Delivered through Software as a Service (SaaS) model

Eg, Google Docs CC Google

Page 12: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

Business ProcessesUse their own internal

applications to reduce third party dependency

Page 13: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

SecurityEver present

security threats!

Needs to be to the same, if not to a greater degree than if cloud not used at all

Page 14: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

Data StorageData has to be stored in a hard

format somewhereSecurity needs to be provided for

this

Data AccessHackers are potential threatCloud providers need to control

access to data

CC gpuhackr

Page 16: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

Data ClassificationData must be

separatedData should

be encrypted for security

Page 17: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

The Cloud as a TechnologyStreamline and minimize

computer interaction“Cloud computing is a disruptive

technology with profound implications, not only for Internet services, but also for the IT sector as a whole.”

Page 18: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

A “Killer App”Yet to be developedVarious barriers in the way

Page 19: Cloud Computing & Cloud Architecture

The Future…If it can be imagined, it can be

perfectedHuge potential in the coming

years…
