Cloud Computing Notes

Cloud computing provides on-demand access to shared computing resources, characterized by self-service, broad access, resource pooling, rapid elasticity, and measured service. It includes various service models such as IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS, and deployment models like public, private, hybrid, and community clouds. Security is a significant concern, with challenges including data breaches and unauthorized access, addressed through solutions like encryption and multi-factor authentication.

Cloud Computing Notes

Unit 1: Introduction to Cloud Computing

Cloud computing is a model that allows on-demand access to a shared pool of computing resources
such as servers, storage, databases, networking, and software. The key characteristics include:
- On-demand self-service
- Broad network access
- Resource pooling
- Rapid elasticity
- Measured service

Types of Cloud Computing:


1. Public Cloud: Available to the general public (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud).
2. Private Cloud: Dedicated to a single organization.
3. Hybrid Cloud: Combination of public and private clouds.
4. Community Cloud: Shared infrastructure for a specific community.

Unit 2: Cloud Service Models

There are three main cloud service models:

1. **Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)**: Provides virtualized computing resources over the internet
(e.g., Amazon EC2, Google Compute Engine).
2. **Platform as a Service (PaaS)**: Provides a platform to develop, test, and deploy applications
(e.g., Google App Engine, Microsoft Azure App Services).
3. **Software as a Service (SaaS)**: Delivers software applications over the internet (e.g., Google
Docs, Dropbox, Salesforce).

Unit 3: Cloud Deployment Models

Cloud deployment models define how cloud services are implemented:

1. **Public Cloud**: Services provided by third-party vendors accessible to anyone.


2. **Private Cloud**: Infrastructure maintained for a single organization.
3. **Hybrid Cloud**: Integration of public and private clouds for flexibility.
4. **Community Cloud**: Shared by multiple organizations with similar needs.

Unit 4: Virtualization in Cloud Computing

Virtualization allows multiple virtual instances to run on a single physical machine. Types include:
- Server Virtualization (VMware, Hyper-V)
- Storage Virtualization
- Network Virtualization

Hypervisors (Type 1 and Type 2) play a key role in managing virtual machines.

Unit 5: Cloud Security and Challenges

Cloud security is crucial to protect data and applications. Major concerns include:
- Data breaches
- Unauthorized access
- Compliance issues

Security solutions include encryption, multi-factor authentication, and intrusion detection systems.
