Cloud Computing

Introduction

Cloud computing technology is the cornerstone of digital development. Digital development helps companies increase efficiency, flexibility, and connectivity quickly because they use technology to turn their business processes into something more manageable, faster, safer, more resilient, and more profitable.

What are the Benefits Of Cloud Computing?

Cloud computing provides businesses with convenient models for accessing infrastructure, platform, and software offerings on a pay-as-you-go basis.

Using cloud computing, companies are freeing up capital, simplifying IT maintenance, updating and scaling up business processes, enhancing security and flexibility in services and solutions, helping customers in new ways, and growing their businesses in ever-changing market conditions.

Types of Cloud Computing Deployment Models

Private Cloud
A private cloud model refers to cloud computing resources used exclusively by one company or organization. The private cloud can be located in the on-site data centre or hosted in the cloud by your service provider.

Public Cloud
When an organization publishes the public cloud model, all supporting hardware, software, and infrastructure are owned and managed by the service provider and delivered exclusively online. You can access these services and drive your account through a web browser.

Hybrid Cloud
The hybrid cloud computing model combines public and private clouds to share data and applications. Hybrid clouds connect existing infrastructure and applications between cloud-based resources to existing non-cloud resources. This approach gives your company more flexibility and deployment options.

Types of Cloud Computing Services

Cloud computing services offer convenient, prepaid models that eliminate exorbitant expenses and costly maintenance. In addition, cloud service providers host a selection of infrastructures, platforms, and on-site software offerings that they “rent,” giving your organization the flexibility to scale or downgrade cloud computing services as you change.

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

Think of IaaS as cloud-based IT building blocks. The cloud service provider hosts infrastructure components traditionally found in on-site data centres in this model. For example, servers, storage devices, networks, and virtual machine monitoring software (virtualization layer) are typically located on-site. With IaaS, your organization can choose when and how to manage workloads without purchasing, collecting, and supporting critical infrastructure. Instead, IaaS sets up and runs your infrastructure quickly, using a prepaid model.

Platform as a Service (PaaS)

PaaS is based on the IaaS model but is usually concerned with the hardware and software tools needed to develop applications. In addition to providing infrastructure components, cloud service providers also host and manage the operating systems and middleware your developers need to create, run, and work. In addition, PaaS offers a prepaid on-demand model.

Software as a Service (SaaS)

With SaaS, providers in the cloud host and manage the entire infrastructure and end-user applications. When your company chooses a SaaS model, you don’t need to install anything. Instead, users can sign in and immediately start using their infrastructure’s cloud service provider app. SaaS gives you the space to think only about how your company uses those programs, not how they are maintained. SaaS is available upon request or by subscription.
