Cloud Computing
Part A: Cloud Computing
What is cloud computing?
Cloud computing allows people to log into a web based service which hosts applications, programs or document. Imagine your job at a big corporation is to make sure every single computer in the company has the right software to work. Buying applications and programs for every single computer can be costly. Cloud computing solves that problem. You’d only have to install one application to ensure the employees can access to the “cloud”.
The “cloud” includes hardware, network, storage, service and interface. These combine together and deliver services such as the delivery of software, infrastructure and storage.
There are different types of cloud computing. There are public clouds, private clouds and hybrid clouds. Public clouds are virtual data center. A service provider such as Dropbox makes resources available over the Internet. Private cloud are usually inside an organization’s firewall but it also could a private space dedicated to the organization provided by a service provider. Hybrid cloud combines both aspects of public and private cloud.
What are the advantages of cloud computing?
Cloud computing is very cost efficient as it is very easy to maintain and use. Cloud computing is a lot cheaper than traditional software. As cloud computing is very high productive, it saves a lot of money and time.
Besides cost efficiency, one of the advantages of cloud computing is that most cloud service providers are usually competent to recover information. It is much easier to backup and recover information than on physical storage device.
Another advantage of cloud computing would be its automatic software integration function. Automatic software integration means a person does not take hard effort to customize and integrate applications. Cloud computing allows the person to customize easily.
Not only it’s very easy to customize, cloud computing is also very easy to access information. A person can easily
