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 Technologies
Technology 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 Fail to fundamentally solve scale

hardware and reliability

IaaS Infrastructure-as-a-Service Computational infrastructure available Lacks security , vertical solutions,

for rent

SaaS Software-as-a-Service Application availability through the SaaS is an application on the

cloud cloud, not a cloud by itself

Utility Computing Packaged computing, application, and Describes a business model, not a
storage sold as a service technology or architecture
