Which of these are examples of applications that use the cloud? quizlet

Q: What is the use of cloud application?

Cloud applications provide quick responsiveness and dont need to permanently reside on the local device. They can function offline, but can be updated online. While under constant control, cloud applications dont always consume storage space on a computer or communications device.

Software as a Service Model (SaaS)

The capability provided to the consumer is to use the provider's applications running on a cloud infrastructure

SaaS

Provider:
→ Application
→ Middleware
→ Operating System
→ Hardware
→ Network
→ Facility

Consumer:
→ User

Platform as a Service Model (PaaS)

The capability provided to the consumer is to deploy onto the cloud infrastructure consumer-created or acquired applications created using programming languages, libraries, services, and tools supported by the provider

Infrastructure as a Service Model (IaaS)

The capability provided to the consumer is to provision processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications

IaaS

Provider:
→ Hardware
→ Network
→ Facility

Consumer:
→ User
→ Application
→ Middleware
→ Operating System

Cloud Delivery Models

1) Private
2) Public
3) Community
4) Hybrid

Private cloud

The cloud infrastructure is provisioned for exclusive use by a single organization comprising multiple consumers (ie business units)

*** Under most circumstances, is owned by the organization and they act as both the provider and the consumer. They have an advantage in not needing to put their data on the Internet

Public cloud

The cloud infrastructure is provisioned for open use by the general public. It may be owned, managed, and operated by a business, academic, or government organization, or some combination of them. It exists on the premises of the cloud provider.

*** Examples include webmail and online document sharing/collaboration.

Community cloud

The cloud infrastructure is provisioned for exclusive use by a specific community of consumers from organizations that have shared concerns

*** The key to distinguishing between this and other types of cloud delivery is that it serves a similar group. There must be joint interests and limited enrollment.

PaaS

Provider:
→ Middleware
→ Operating System
→ Hardware
→ Network
→ Facility

Consumer:
→ User
→ Application

Hybrid Cloud

The cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more distinct cloud infrastructures that remain unique entities, but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability

→ Usually amalagamation of private and public clouds

Type I Hypervisor Model

Also known as "bare metal". Is independent of the operating system and boots before the OS

Type II Hypervisor Model

Also known as hosted, is dependent on the operating system and cannot boot until the OS is up and running. It needs the OS to stay up so that it can boot

Snapshots

Allow you to take an image of a system at a particular point in time

→ Contain a copy of the virtual machine settings, information on all virtual disks attached, and the memory stat of the machine at the time

Snapshots can be used for:

Virtual machine cloning, allowing the machine copied once (or multiple times) for testing

Patch Compatibility

Needs to be factored in before systems are updated.

With VMware:
→ releases are based on the code from the immediately preceding update
→ compatibility is assumed to have the same compatibility as the preceding update release

Host Availability

Topic that needs to be addressed in the Service Level Agreement (SLA) with any vendor with whom you contact for cloud services.

Elastacity

Capabilities can be elastically provisioned and released, in some cases automatically, to scale rapidly outward and inward commensurate with demand

Security Control Testing (SCT)

Often includes interviews, examinations, and testing of systems to look for weaknesses

Sandboxing

Involves running apps in restricted memory areas
→ By doing so, it is possible to limit the possibility of an app's crash, allowing a user to access another app or the data associated with it.

Multitenancy

One of the ways cloud computing is able to obtain cost efficiencies is by putting data from various clients on the same machines
→ A flaw in implementation could compromise security

Laws and Responsiblities

The consumer retains the ultimate responsibility for compliance

Direct-attached storage (DAS)

Refers to a digital storage system directly attached to a server or workstation, without a storage network in between
→ Mainly used to differentiate non-networked storage from the concepts of a storage area network (SAN) and network-attached storage (NAS)

Network-attached storage (NAS)

Is file-level computer data storage server connected to a computer network providing data access to a heterogeneous group of clients
→ not only operates as a file server, but is specialized for this task either by its hardware, software, or configuration of those elements

Storage Area network (SAN)

Is a dedicated network that provides access to consolidated, block-level data storage.

SANs are primarly used to:

enhance storage devices such as disk arrays, tape libraries, and optical jukeboxes, accessible to servers that the devices appear like locally attched

What is cloud computing and their applications give examples?

Today, there are several examples of cloud computing applications used by both businesses and individuals. One type of cloud service would be streaming platforms for audio or video, where the actual media files are stored remotely. Another would be data storage platforms like Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, or Box.

What is the use of cloud application?

Cloud applications provide quick responsiveness and don't need to permanently reside on the local device. They can function offline, but can be updated online. While under constant control, cloud applications don't always consume storage space on a computer or communications device.
