 Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing or cloud computing means that
hardware and software is provided as a service of another
company over the Internet.

Cloud computing offers individuals and businesses of all sizes

the ability of a pool of computing resources with good
maintenance, secure, easy access and on demand, such
as servers, data storage and application solution.

In the cloud model, there is no need to install applications

locally on computers.

 What is Cloud computing for?
It serves to host a set of programs and services on a server connected to
the Network, accessible from any computer (whatever operating system
it is running) with Internet connection without installing executable
applications.

How does cloud computing work?
It serves to host a set of programs and services on a server connected to the Network,
accessible from any computer (whatever operating system it is running) with Internet
connection without installing executable applications.

When we talk about cloud computing we can differentiate two parts: frontend and backend,
connected to each other through a network (usually the Internet). The frontend is the
interface that the user sees while the backend is the cloud.

• As essential as the Internet
According to (Vicenç Lozano, 2017) the cloud is the natural evolution
of technology towards a system, which, although it created some
reticence in its beginnings, has been strongly imposed as a must in
any company. So much so that the prestigious consultant Gartner
explains that in 2020 finding a company with corporate policies
against the cloud "will be as rare as promoting a policy against the use
of the Internet."

What is Green Computing?
Green computing is the environmentally responsible and eco-friendly use of computers and
their resources. In broader terms, it is also defined as the study of designing, engineering,
manufacturing, using and disposing of computing devices in a way that reduces their
environmental impact.
1992
Environmental
Protection Agency
(EPA) launched the
Energy Star program.

Green computing is also known as green

information technology (green IT).

The objective of Green computing
Green computing aims to attain economic viability and improve the
way computing devices are used.

Green IT practices include the development of environmentally

sustainable production practices, energy-efficient computers and
improved disposal and recycling procedures

periods.

02 Buy energy-efficient notebook computers,

instead of desktop computers.
05 Turn off computers at the end of each
day.

03 Activate the power management features

for controlling energy consumption.
06 Instead of purchasing a new computer
, try refurbishing an existing device.
Green computing

Allows efficient use of computing resources minimizing

the environmental impact, maximizing its economic viab
ility and ensuring social duties.
Not only are the main energy-consuming technologies a
nd producers of environmental waste identified, but the
development of ecological computer products is offered
and computer recycling is promoted.
 Green computing
types
Some of the technologies classified as green, because they contribu
te to the reduction in energy consumption or carbon dioxide emissi
on, are:
• Cloud computing,
• Grid computing,
• Grid computing is an innovative technology that allows to use
in a coordinated way all kinds of resources (including comput
ation, storage and specific applications) that are not subject t
o centralized control.
• Virtualization in data centers,
• Telecommuting.
Where is GC or Green IT going?

60%
According to an article by Veo Verde, by 2030 60% more energy co
nsumption will be required than the current one, and this is largel
y due to the growth of the population.

The current environmental situation has led companies to become

aware of the reduction of their consumables, without losing their
profitability. The business sector is introducing aggressive environ
mental policies with a global reach,
