ENTER THE CLOUD
 Cloud is a model of computing where servers,

networks, storage, development tools, and even

applications are enabled through the internet.

 Instead of organizations having to make major

investments to buy equipment, train staff, and

provide ongoing maintenance, some or all of

these needs are handled by a cloud service

provider.

WHY CLOUD COMPUTING IS
REQUIRED?
Before cloud computing, companies had to store all
their data and software on their own hard drives and
servers.

It's not just businesses that benefit from cloud


computing. The cloud has transformed our lives as
individuals as well. Many of us use cloud services
every day.

Today, cloud technology means that companies can


scale and adapt at speed and scale, accelerate
innovation, drive business agility, streamline
operations, and reduce costs
TYPICAL REQUIREMENTS AND
MODELS:
• A cloud computing environment
can provide one or more of these
requirements for a cost
• Pay as you go model of business
• When using a public cloud the
model is similar to renting a
property than owning one.
• An organization could also
maintain a private cloud and/or
use both.
Case study : Siemens Uses
Cloud Computing to
Reduce Power Plant Alerts
by 90%
• It's never been easier for power plants to monitor
their equipment and operations

• That’s a challenge Siemens, the 170-year-old


global technology leader, set out to answer.

• A modern power plant control system receives


about 5,000 alerts

• Because some alerts are less important, while


some warn of possible breakdowns or regulatory
actions, these teams need help reducing and
prioritizing alerts.

• Projects to reduce the volume of alerts can


require two full-time employees for six months
• To help Siemens customers address this problem
cost-effectively

• Prototype of a serverless platform for this


solution

• I&C Monitors and Advisors uses AWS Lambda for


analyzing power plant process-control data.

• The serverless solution also uses Amazon Simple


Storage Service (Amazon S3) for object
storage, Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon
SQS) for fully managed message queueing,
and Amazon DynamoDB to hold the results of
analytics processes run against data held in
Amazon S3.

• With the serverless AWS platform, we decreased


customer control system alerts 90 percent and
reduced infrastructure costs 85 percent.

• In the 18 months since seimens been serverless,


they haven't had one minute of unplanned
downtime.

 Use of Prototyping and Extreme Programming
 Server and Storage requirements not completely known

 Explosive growth in applications: biomedical informatics,


space exploration, business analytics, web 3.0 social
networking: YouTube, Facebook.

 Extreme scale content generation: e-science and e-business


data.

 Exponential growth in compute capabilities: multi-core,


storage, bandwidth, virtual machines (virtualization)

 Very short cycle of obsolescence in technologies:


Windows 10 Windows 11; Java versions; CC#;
Phython.

 Diverse knowledge and skill levels of the workforce.
