“The Cloud”
SUPERIOR INFRASTRUCTURE + OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE + PEOPLE WHO DELIVER
• What is the Cloud?• Where is the Cloud?
• When to use the Cloud?• Why would you use the Cloud?
• How does the Cloud work?
SUPERIOR INFRASTRUCTURE + OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE + PEOPLE WHO DELIVER
Definition• Lots of confusion• Several different “loosely applied” definitions• A style of computing in which massively scalable IT-related
capabilities are provided "as a service" using Internet technologies to multiple external customers
• An internal or external “cloud enabled” service offering • The provision of dynamically scalable and often virtualized
resources as a service over the Internet.• A general term for anything that involves delivering hosted
services over the Internet.

• Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. (NIST Definition, National Institute of Standards and Technology)

“The Cloud” by definition
SUPERIOR INFRASTRUCTURE + OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE + PEOPLE WHO DELIVER
Cloud computing:(noun)
Internet-based computing in which large groups of remote servers are networked so as to allow sharing of data-processing tasks, centralized data storage, and online access to computer services or resources.
Any computer related task that is done entirely on the Internet
SUPERIOR INFRASTRUCTURE + OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE + PEOPLE WHO DELIVER
Summarized History 1960 - John McCarthy opined that "computation may someday be organized as a
public utility" Early 1990s – The term “cloud” comes into commercial use referring to large
networks and the advancement of the Internet. 1999 – Salesforce.com is established, providing an “on demand” SaaS (Software as
a Service). 2001 – IBM details the SaaS concept in their “Autonomic Computing Manifesto” 2005 – Amazon provides access to their excess capacity on a utility computing and
storage basis 2007 – Google, IBM, various Universities embark on a large scale cloud computing
research project 2008 – Gartner says cloud computing will “shape the relationship among
consumers of IT services, those who use IT services and those who sell them”

What is Cloud Computing
SUPERIOR INFRASTRUCTURE + OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE + PEOPLE WHO DELIVER
• Allows users to deal with the software without having the compute hardware.
• Everything is done by remote, nothing is saved locally

Cloud Architecture
SUPERIOR INFRASTRUCTURE + OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE + PEOPLE WHO DELIVER
• Cloud Software as a Service (SaaS)– Use provider’s applications over a network
• Cloud Platform as a Service (PaaS)– Deploy customer-created applications to a cloud
• Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)– Rent processing, storage, network capacity, and other
fundamental computing resources
To be considered “cloud” services are deployed on top of cloud infrastructure that has the key characteristics

• Clouds are massively complex systems that can be reduced to simple primitives that are replicated thousands of times
• These complexities create many issues related to security as well as all aspects of Cloud computing
• Clouds typically have a single security architecture but have many customers with different demands
• Cloud security issues may drive and define how we adopt and deploy cloud computing solutions
• Highly sensitive data is likely to be on private clouds where organizations have complete control over their security model

ISSUES RELATED TO CLOUD COMPUTING
• Cloud computing may create a dependence on the provider (Google, Amazon) and may make it difficult to move to another platform.
• Google itself admits that Google App Engine is targeted at consumer applications, not businesses.
• There’s always the risk that the Cloud provider may change business models or even go out of business.

• Estimates vary widely on possible cost savingso “If you move your data center to a cloud provider, it will cost a tenth of
the cost.” – Brian Gammage, Gartner Fellow
• Use of cloud applications can reduce costs from 50% to 90% -CTO of Washington D.C.
• IT resource subscription pilot demonstrated a 28% cost savings -Alchemy Plus cloud (backing from Microsoft)
• “Using Cloud infrastructure saves 18% to 28% before considering that you no longer need to buy peak capacity” –George Reese, founder Valtira and enStratus
• When implementing Cloud you must consider other costs which may not be apparent today.
Cloud Economics
SUPERIOR INFRASTRUCTURE + OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE + PEOPLE WHO DELIVER
• Public clouds work great for some but not all applications
• Private clouds offer many benefits for internal applications
• Public and private clouds can be used in combination• Cloud Computing is the fastest growing part of IT• Tremendous benefits to customers of all sizes• Cloud services are simpler to acquire and scale up or
down
