NETWORKING 2 WAAAAAAAAAH

Cloud Computing - is a model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool.

“Cloud” - is a metaphor for networks and the internet.

Private Cloud - is a cloud infrastructure operated solely for a single organization.

Public Cloud - service provider owns and operates the cloud infrastructure and provides cloud services.

Hybrid Cloud - combination of public cloud and a private cloud or on-premises resources that remain distinct but are bound together.

IaaS - Users only need to pay attention to the system and application layers

PaaS - Users only need to focus on applications and data

Saas - the cloud platform provides all resources, services, and maintenance. Users only need to use applications.

5 Benefits of Cloud Computing

On-Demand self-service - Customers can deploy processing services based on actual requirements on the server running time.

Broad network access - can be accessed in standard mode from various clients, such as mobile phones, laptops, and PADs.

Resource pooling - computing resources of the service provider are centralized so that customers can rent services.

Quick Deployment and auto scaling - cloud computing can rapidly and elastically provide computing capabilities.

Metered services - cloud services are billed based on the actual resource usage, such as CPU, memory, and bandwith consumption of cloud servers.

8 Common characteristics of Cloud Computing

Massive scale - Cloud computing service is on a large scale as it centralizes IT resource supply. This makes cloud computing different from conventional IT.

Homogeneity - can also be understood as standardization, which is similar to power utilization.

Virtualization - has two meanings. One is accurate computing units. If a cake is too large for one person, it is better to divide it into small pieces to share.

Elastic computing - computing means that IT resources can be elastically provided.

Low-cost software - is provided to meet the market competition and requirements. Cloud computing, with low individual technical skill and financial requirements, makes IT easy to use.

Geographic distribution - As the broad access mentioned above, IT services can be provided anytime and anyhere.

Service orientation - Cloud computing is a service model, and the overall design is service-oriented.

Advanced security technology - Public cloud has a large number of users with different requirements. Therefore, advanced security technologies must be adopted to protect cloud computing.
