 Cloud Computing Definition
• Set of h/w, n/w, storage, Services and interface to
enable the delivery of computing as a service
– Service- delivery of s/w, h/w, storage, fully/partially
based on requirements
– Participants – end user, business management, cloud
service providers
– Service should enable multi-tenancy
– Characteristics of cloud – elasticity and scalability,
self-service provisioning and deprovisioning, APIs, billing
and metering
– Performance monitoring and measuring
– security
 Performance monitoring and
measuring
• Service management environments-
integrated approach for managing IT
resources
– Has to monitor and optimize the set of services
– Monitor the performance of overall systems
– Should measure the performance using metrics
– Dashboard (for customer)
 Security
• Turning over critical data or application
infrastructure to a cloud-based service provider
requires making sure that the
information can’t be accidentally accessed by
another company (or maliciously accessed by a
hacker).
• Many companies have compliance requirements for
securing both internal and external information
 Cloud Providers Vs IT service Providers
• IT Service Providers

– Infrastructure developed using their own facilities only
– License cost to be paid by clients
– Customer should sign long term contract
– More customization is required to meet the needs of one
customer
• Cloud Service Providers
– Operate and manage h/w, s/w, n/w, storage (Public cloud only)
– License cost to paid by service providers not the clients
– Short-term contract
– Less customization
