Introduction to cloud computing

Intended for non technical executives, this is a high level description of what cloud computing is and how to think about it in a business context.

RightScale Webinar: December 8, 2010 – In this Webinar, we discuss the benefits and pain points of multi-cloud as well as key considerations to have in mind when going multi-cloud. We present examples of multi-cloud scenarios and describe the design principles to consider when architecting deployments that must span and migrate across different clouds and providers.

Windows Azure is a cloud computing platform that provides infrastructure and platform services. It offers a continuum between on-premises servers that are fully controlled by the user and cloud services that are abstracted from the underlying infrastructure. The platform provides scalable and available virtual machines, storage, databases, messaging and other services. It allows applications to be developed using .NET, PHP, Java, Ruby and other technologies and deployed in a highly available, secure and scalable manner. Pricing is based on pay-as-you-go model based on compute, storage and data transfer usage.

This presentation is a basic description of Microsoft Azure. It gives an idea about the Azure - What is Azure?, What are its advantages? and it also enlists a few services provided by Microsoft Azure. The basic idea of Billing and cost management is also provided in the presentation along with the comparison of Azure with AWS and Google Cloud. This presentation also enlists a few business partners of Microsoft Azure.

This document discusses cloud computing and Amazon Web Services (AWS). It begins with an introduction to cloud computing, describing it as accessing and delivering services over the internet, such as storage, computing, and software. It then covers the benefits of cloud computing, including scalability, monitoring, and reduced time to market. The document discusses various cloud services models including Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). It also covers cloud deployment models such as public, private, hybrid and community clouds. The remainder focuses on AWS services and provides an overview of compute, storage, database, deployment and security services along with examples of using Lambda for serverless applications

Cloud computing enables applications and services to be accessed over the Internet through on-demand provisioning of computing resources. It provides scalability, reduced costs due to an on-demand pricing model, and enables sharing of resources among a large pool of users. Key aspects of cloud computing include virtualization of resources, utility computing which provides metered access to computing power, and the ability to access infrastructure, platforms and software as online services. Major cloud platforms include Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google App Engine, and IBM Cloud.

Introduction Cloud computing for beginners explains about primary attributes and Cloud architectures such as IaaS, PaaS and SaaS. And also discussed about Cloud deployment models Private Cloud, Public Cloud and Hybrid Cloud.

This is a brief introduction to Microsoft Azure cloud. I used these slides in an intro session for developers. I did few demos during the session that not included in the slide. Brand name and logos are properties of their respective owners.

Cloud computing allows users to access files and applications over the internet from any device. There are two models of cloud computing - deployment models which define access types like public, private, hybrid and community clouds, and service models which are infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS). IaaS provides on-demand access to servers, storage, networking and operating systems, PaaS provides platforms for developers to create and deploy applications, and SaaS provides access to applications over the internet.

Cloud computing is internet-based computing that provides on-demand access to shared computing resources like networks, servers, storage, applications and services. It delivers scalable, elastic resources as a service to users via APIs with pay-per-use pricing. There are three main types of cloud services: Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). IaaS provides fundamental computing resources, PaaS provides platforms to build apps, and SaaS provides ready-to-use apps delivered over the internet.
