Cloud computing

Why we use cloud computing?

Why we use cloud computing?

Case 1: Write a file Save Computer down, file is lost Files are always stored in cloud, never lost

Why we use cloud computing?

Case 2: Use IE --- download, install, use Use QQ --- download, install, use Use C++ --- download, install, use Get the serve from the cloud

What is cloud and cloud computing?

Cloud Demand resources or services over Internet scale and reliability of a data center.

What is cloud and cloud computing?

Cloud computing is a style of computing in which dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources are provided as a serve over the Internet.

Users need not have knowledge of, expertise in, or control over the technology infrastructure in the "cloud" that supports them.

The architecture of cloud computing system

Characteristics of cloud computing

Virtual. software, databases, Web servers, operating systems, storage and networking as virtual servers.

On demand. add and subtract processors, memory, network bandwidth, storage.

Types of cloud service

SaaS Software as a Service PaaS Platform as a Service IaaS Infrastructure as a Service

SaaS

Software delivery model

No hardware or software to manage Service delivered through a browser Customers use the service on demand Instant Scalability

SaaS

Examples

Your current CRM package is not managing the load or you simply dont want to host it in-house. Use a SaaS provider such as Salesforce.com

Your email is hosted on an exchange server in your office and it is very slow. Outsource this using Hosted Exchange.

PaaS

Platform delivery model

Platforms are built upon Infrastructure, which is expensive Estimating demand is not a science! Platform management is not fun!

PaaS

Examples

You need to host a large file (5Mb) on your website and make it available for 35,000 users for only two months duration. Use Cloud Front from Amazon.

You want to start storage services on your network for a large number of files and you do not have the storage capacityuse Amazon S3.

IaaS

Computer infrastructure delivery model

A platform virtualization environment Computing resources, such as storing

and processing capacity. Virtualization taken a step further

IaaS

Examples

You want to run a batch job but you dont have the infrastructure necessary to run it in a timely manner. Use Amazon EC2. You want to host a website, but only for a few days. Use Flexiscale.

Why did Dreamworks use this? Upsides? Downsides?

Grid Computing & Cloud Computing

share a lot commonality intention, architecture and technology Difference programming model, business model, compute model, applications, and Virtualization.

Grid Computing & Cloud Computing

the problems are mostly the same

manage large facilities;

define methods by which consumers discover, request and use resources provided by the central facilities;

implement the often highly parallel computations that execute on those resources.

Grid Computing & Cloud Computing

Virtualization Grid

do not rely on virtualization as much as Clouds do, each individual organization maintain full control of their resources an indispensable ingredient for almost every Cloud

Google App Engine

Google App Engine

Does

one thing well: running web apps app configuration

Simple

Scalable

Secure
37

App Engine Does One Thing Well

App

Engine handles HTTP(S) requests, nothing else

Think RPC: request in, processing, response out Works well for the web and AJAX; also for other services

App

configuration is dead simple

No performance tuning needed

App Engine Architecture

How to use Google App engine

Download Java 6 Download Eclipse and Google plug in

Register a user account in Google

Create an application (python, Java) and upload the code
