2. Definition (Wikipedia) “Cloud computing is a style of computing in which dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources are provided as a service over the Internet. Users need not have knowledge of, expertise in, or control over the technology infrastructure in the "cloud" that supports them.”
3. In simple words,…
4. This is not a new idea Edison Tesla Selling electricity (AC) The client must adapt Model working till today Selling generators (DC) Employs the “current professionals” Ultimately, the idea fell
5. Cloud – where Dedicated cloud Public cloud(Azure) Secure cloud federation Private cloudSystem Center, VMM, DDT,… Internal IT ENTERPRISE
6. Cloud – „offering” Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Hardware in a cloud Platform as a Service (PaaS) Hardware in a cloud Special software (application platform for developers) For example - Windows Azure Software as a Service (SaaS) Hardware in a cloud Special software (application platform for developers) Client application in a cloud For example: BPOS, LIVE etc Software + Services
7. Why huge Data Center? The construction is VERY expensive $100+ Million / $300 Milion+; Microsoft $500 million Location? Depends on the price per kilowatt / hour Result: Quincy, WA Google, Microsoft, Yahoo!, eth… San Antonio, TX Microsoft, US NSA, etc… Large DCs 5-7 times more cost effective
8. What does that mean: big? Size of a football field
9. Project Data Center – electricity and Air Conditioning Many generators Computer-controlledcooling Dual power Batteries, UPS 2 4 5 Dual powersupply for rack 1 3
10. Inside the Data Center
11. Inside the Data Center
12. Geographically - DC Locations Amsterdam Dublin, Ireland China Japan Europe North America Asia Hong Kong Chicago, IL Quincy, WA Africa San Antonio, TX Singapore Central andSouth America Australia Microsoft has more than 10 and less than 100 DC.
13. Somecommonproblems… × × 1 1 Infrastructure costs are fixed and ongoing, and distract from the mission of reducing business process friction Leveraging past investments to provide future value Many data centers at limit—real estate, capacity, cooling and power Matching capacity to demand Maintaining security while increasing access and transparency—within and outside the organization 5 × 2 × Security, access, and transparency across the value chain: suppliers, partners, etc. 6 × 3 7 × Lack of a common platform × 4 In Windows Azure these problems do not exist!
14. Introducing Windows Azure WEB & CLOUDS Web applications Third party cloud Developer Experience Use existing skills and tools REST API Compute Storage Management Relational data Management Connectivity Access control ON-PREMISES LOB Applications Composite applications
15. So, what is Windows Azure?
16. Windows Azure OS Hardware abstraction across multiple servers (we do not see hardware) Distributed, scalable containers Implementation, monitoring and maintenance Automated service management, load distribution, DNS .... Environment for programming in accordance with. NET but: Easy to use from any technology Designed for Utility Computing
17. Profits from the use of cloud Cloud = low-cost power, on-demand Windows Azure
