Overview

Cloud computing provides computation, software, data access, and storage services that do not

require end-user knowledge of the physical location and configuration of the system that delivers

the services. Parallels to this concept can be drawn with theelectricity grid, wherein end-users

consume power without needing to understand the component devices or infrastructure required

to provide the service.

The concept of cloud computing fills a perpetual need ofIT: a way to increase capacity or add

capabilities on the fly without investing in new infrastructure, training new personnel, or licensing

new software. Cloud computing encompasses any subscription-based or pay-per-use service

that, in real time over the Internet, extends IT's existing capabilities.[citation needed]

Cloud computing describes a new supplement, consumption, and delivery model forITservices

based on Internet protocols, and it typically involves provisioning of dynamicallyscalableand

oftenvirtualizedresources.[1][2]

It is a byproduct and consequence of the ease-of-access to

remote computing sites provided by the Internet.[3]

This may take the form of web-based tools or

applications that users can access and use through aweb browseras if the programs were

installed locally on their own computers.[4]

Cloud computing providers deliverapplicationsvia the internet, which are accessed from aweb

browser, while the businesssoftwareand data are stored onserversat a remote location. In

some cases, legacy applications (line of business applications that until now have been prevalent

in thin client Windows computing) are delivered via a screen-sharing technology, while the

computing resources are consolidated at a remotedata centerlocation; in other cases, entire

business applications have been coded using web-based technologies such asAJAX.

Most cloud computing infrastructures consist of services delivered through shared data-centers

and appearing as a single point of access for consumers' computing needs. Commercial offerings

may be required to meetservice-level agreements(SLAs), but specific terms are less often

negotiated by smaller companies.[5][6]

[edit]Comparison

Cloud computing shares characteristics with:

Autonomic computing Computer systems capable ofself-management.[7]

Clientserver modelClientserver computingrefers broadly to

anydistributed applicationthat distinguishes between service providers

(servers) and service requesters (clients).[8]

Grid computing "A form ofdistributedandparallel computing, whereby a

'super and virtual computer' is composed of aclusterof networked,loosely

coupledcomputers acting in concert to perform very large tasks."

Mainframe computer Powerful computers used mainly by large

organizations for critical applications, typically bulk data processing such

ascensus, industry and consumer statistics,enterprise resource planning,

and financialtransaction processing.[9]

Utility computing

The "packaging ofcomputing resources, such ascomputation and storage, as a metered service similar to a traditional public

utility, such as electricity."[10]

Peer-to-peer Distributed architecture without the need for central

coordination, with participants being at the same time both suppliers and

consumers of resources (in contrast to the traditional clientserver model).

Service-oriented computingsoftware-as-a-service.[11]

[edit]Characteristics

Cloud computing exhibits the following key characteristics:

Agilityimproves with users' ability to re-provision technological infrastructure

resources.

Application programming interface(API) accessibility to software that

enables machines to interact with cloud software in the same way the user

interface facilitates interaction between humans and computers. Cloud

computing systems typically useREST-based APIs.

Costis claimed to be reduced and in a public cloud delivery model capital

expenditureis converted tooperational expenditure.[12]This is purported to

lowerbarriers to entry, as infrastructure is typically provided by a third-party

and does not need to be purchased for one-time or infrequent intensive

computing tasks. Pricing on autility computingbasis is fine-grained with

usage-based options and fewer IT skills are required for implementation (in-

house).[13]

Deviceand location independence[14]enable users to access systems

using a web browser regardless of their location or what device they are

using (e.g., PC, mobile phone). As infrastructure is off-site (typically provided

by a third-party) and accessed via the Internet, users can connect fromanywhere.[13]

Multi-tenancyenables sharing of resources and costs across a large pool of

users thus allowing for:

Centralization of infrastructure in locations with lower costs (such as real

estate, electricity, etc.)

Peak-load capacity increases (users need not engineer for highest

possible load-levels)

Utilization and efficiency improvements for systems that are often only

1020% utilized.[15]

Reliabilityis improved if multiple redundant sites are used, which makes

well-designed cloud computing suitable forbusiness continuityanddisaster

recovery.[16]

Scalabilityand Elasticity via dynamic ("on-demand")provisioningof

resources on a fine-grained, self-service basis near real-time, without users

having to engineer for peak loads.[17]

Performanceis monitored, and consistent and loosely coupled architectures

are constructed usingweb servicesas the system interface.[13]

Securitycould improve due to centralization of data, increased security-

focused resources, etc., but concerns can persist about loss of control over

certain sensitive data, and the lack of security for stored kernels.[18]Security

is often as good as or better than under traditional systems, in part because

providers are able to devote resources to solving security issues that many

customers cannot afford.[19]However, the complexity of security is greatly

increased when data is distributed over a wider area or greater number of

devices and in multi-tenant systems that are being shared by unrelated users.

In addition, user access to securityaudit logsmay be difficult or impossible.

Private cloud installations are in part motivated by users' desire to retain

control over the infrastructure and avoid losing control of information security.

Maintenanceof cloud computing applications is easier, because they do not

need to be installed on each user's computer.
