What is Cloud Computing? Massive computing resources, deployed among virtual datacenters, dynamically allocated to specific users and tasks and accessed as a service via an user interface (UI), such as a web browser. The physical cloud resources may reside in a number of locations, the details of which are not typically known to the service’s users. Cloud resources are offered as a service on an as needed basis. The cloud itself typically consists of large numbers of commodity-grade servers, harnessed to deliver highly scalable and reliable on-demand services.

What is Cloud Computing? Massive computing resources, deployed among virtual datacenters, dynamically allocated to specific users and tasks and accessed as a service via an user interface (UI), such as a web browser.

The physical cloud resources may reside in a number of locations, the details of which are not typically known to the service’s users.

Cloud resources are offered as a service on an as needed basis. The cloud itself typically consists of large numbers of commodity-grade servers, harnessed to deliver highly scalable and reliable on-demand services.

Cloud TechnologiesTechnology Key Feature What’s Missing

Grid Computing Job scheduling across many machines

Difficult to administer; Lacks broad applicability of cloud computing

Virtualization Virtual machines decouple OS from hardware

Fail to fundamentally solve scale and reliability

IaaS Infrastructure-as-a-Service

Computational infrastructure available for rent

Lacks security , vertical solutions,

SaaS Software-as-a-Service

Application availability through the cloud

SaaS is an application on the cloud, not a cloud by itself

Utility Computing Packaged computing, application, and storage sold as a service

Describes a business model, not a technology or architecture
