  2. Definition of Cloud Computing • Computing based on sharing computation resources, rather than having local servers or personal devices handle these applications. (Dictionary.com) • “Cloud” refers to the metaphor of any computation taking place outside of user(s) working environment. • NOT to be mistaken for grid computing, autonomic computing, or utility computing, however it does implement ideas of these three types of distributed computing.

  3. Types of Cloud Computing • SaaS (Software as a Service) • Utility Computing • Web services in the cloud • Platform as a service • MSP (Managed Service Providers) • Service Commerce Platforms • Internet Integration www.infoworld.com

  4. Why Cloud Computing? • Corporations are becoming more interested with eliminating their locally-baseddata center, and switching to a data center that can be both accessed and controlled globally, with minimal management needed. • Applications transmit data via web-browser, while the program(s) needed to execute the applications are stored in a server, or multiple servers.

  5. Why? (cont.) • 5 essential characteristics include: • Self-serviceable from anywhere with internet • Broad network access • Resource pooling • Rapid elasticity (responsiveness) • Measured service

  6. Some Providers • Google provides two platforms • Google Apps • Google App Engine • Amazon • Elastic Compute Cloud: offers you full Linux machines with root access and the opportunity to run whatever apps you want.
