What is cloud computing ?
“The cloud” is the delivery of on-demand computing resources – everything from applications to the data centers over the internet on a pay-for-use basic. Cloud computing is an information technology (IT) paradigm that enables ubiquitous(everywhere anytime) access to shared pools of configurable system resources.
Services Models :-
→ Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) :-
It refers to online services that provide high level APIs used to
dereference various low-level details of underlying network
infrastructure like location, data partition, backup etc.
→ Platform as a service (PaaS) :-
It refers the capability provided to the consumers is to deploy onto
the cloud infrastructure consumer-created or acquired applications
created using programming languages, libraries, services, and tools
supported by the provider. The consumer does not manage or control the
underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating
systems, or storage, but has control over the deployed applications and
possibly configuration settings for the application-hosting environment.
→ Software as a service (SaaS) :-
It refers the capability provided to the consumer is to use the
provider's applications running on a cloud infrastructure. The
applications are accessible from various client devices through either
a thin client interface, such as a web browser (e.g., web-based email),
or a program interface. The consumer does not manage or control the
underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating
systems, storage, or even individual application capabilities, with the
possible exception of limited user-specific application configuration
settings.
