- 3. Event overview • Intro to Cloud Computing • Advantages of Cloud Computing • Types of Cloud Computing services • Use cases of Basic GCP Services • Conclusion Sections
- 4. Section 1: Intro to Cloud Computing A brief overview on Cloud Computing.
- 5. What is Cloud Computing? • Cloud computing refers to the delivery of computing services like servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics and more over the internet. These services are offered by cloud providers like Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform etc. • Rather than maintaining local servers or data centers, companies can leverage the infrastructure of a cloud provider to access technology services on demand via the internet. This allows for more flexibility and cost savings. • Some key characteristics of cloud computing include on-demand self-service, broad network access, resource pooling, rapid elasticity and measured service. Companies only pay for the cloud services they use, scaling services up or down as needed.

- 7. Advantages of Cloud Computing • Cost Savings: Cloud computing can save you money because you don't need to buy and maintain expensive hardware and software. You only pay for what you use, like electricity. • Flexibility: You can access your data and applications from anywhere with an internet connection. It's like having your digital stuff available wherever you go. • Scalability: Cloud services can grow or shrink with your needs. It's like having the ability to easily make your digital resources bigger or smaller, just like a rubber band. • Automatic Updates: The cloud provider takes care of software updates and maintenance, so you don't have to worry about it. It's like having a personal assistant for your computer. • Security: Cloud providers often have strong security measures in place to protect your data. It's like storing your valuables in a high-tech, super-secure vault. • Backup and Recovery: Your data is often backed up in multiple places, making it easier to recover if something goes wrong. It's like having a safety net for your digital files
- 8. Section 3: Types of Cloud Service Providers
- 9. Cloud Service Providers • Amazon Web Services (AWS): AWS is a subsidiary of Amazon and is one of the largest and most widely used cloud service providers globally. It offers a vast array of services, including computing power, storage, databases, machine learning, and more. Many businesses rely on AWS for its scalability, reliability, and extensive global infrastructure. • Microsoft Azure: Microsoft Azure is Microsoft's cloud platform, known for its strong integration with Microsoft products like Windows Server and SQL Server. Azure provides a wide range of services, including virtual machines, AI and machine learning, IoT, and blockchain. It's popular among enterprises for hybrid cloud solutions. • Google Cloud Platform (GCP): Google Cloud is Google's cloud offering, known for its expertise in data analytics, machine learning, and big data services. GCP provides services for computing, storage, databases, and AI, making it attractive for companies looking to leverage Google's expertise in these areas.
- 10. Section 4: Use Cases of basic GCP Services
- 11. GCP Services Cloud CDN (Content Delivery Network): • Website Acceleration: Cloud CDN can accelerate the delivery of web content, such as images, videos, and web pages, by caching it in edge locations around the world. This reduces latency and improves website performance for users globally. • Distributed Applications: It's useful for applications with a global user base, ensuring fast and reliable access to content and reducing the load on origin servers. Cloud Storage: • Data Backup and Archiving: Cloud Storage provides a scalable and cost-effective solution for storing backups and archives of critical data. It's durable and reliable, making it suitable for long-term data retention. • Media and Content Storage: Many organizations use Cloud Storage to store and serve media files, such as images, videos, and audio. It's ideal for delivering content to websites and mobile apps.
- 12. Cloud SQL: • Database Management: Cloud SQL is a fully managed relational database service. It's suitable for hosting databases that power web applications, e-commerce platforms, and more. You can use it with MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQL Server. • Scalable Web Applications: It's a good choice for web applications that require a relational database backend. Cloud SQL can automatically handle tasks like replication and backups, allowing developers to focus on building features.
- 14. Conclusion In conclusion, cloud computing offers a convenient and flexible way to harness the power of remote servers and services through the internet. Key advantages include cost savings, accessibility from anywhere, scalability, automatic updates, enhanced security, and reliable backup and recovery. The top three cloud service providers, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), each offer a broad range of services tailored to different business needs. • AWS is renowned for its extensive service offerings and global presence. • Microsoft Azure integrates well with Microsoft products and excels in hybrid cloud solutions. • Google Cloud Platform is known for expertise in data analytics, machine learning, and big data services. Specific GCP services such as Cloud CDN, Cloud Storage, and Cloud SQL have distinct use cases, from accelerating content delivery and storing data to managing relational databases. These services empower organizations to optimize their operations and deliver better user experiences.
