Cloud computing provides on-demand access to IT resources and applications from the internet. It allows users to access software, databases, and infrastructure remotely. Key features include scalability, flexibility, and not having to manage physical infrastructure. There are different deployment models like public, private, hybrid and community clouds as well as service models including Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS).

2. Cloud Computing provides us a means by which we
can access the applications as utilities, over
the Internet. It allows us to create, configure,
and customize applications online.
With Cloud Computing users can access database
resources via the internet from anywhere for
as long as they need without worrying about
any maintenance or management of actual
resources.
3. The term CLOUD refers to a Network or Internet.
In other words, we can say that Cloud is something, which is
present at remote location. Cloud can provide services
over network, i.e.., on public networks or on private
networks, i.e.., WAN, LAN or VPN.
Applications such as e-mail, web conferencing,
customer relationship management (CRM),
all run in cloud.
4. Cloud Computing refers to manipulating,
configuring, and accessing the application
online. It offers online data storage,
infrastructure and application.
Cloud Computing is both combination of
software and hardware based computing
resources delivered as a network service.
7. Deployment models define the
type of access to the cloud,
i.e., how to cloud is
located? Cloud can have any
of four types of :
Public, Private, Hybrid and
Community.
9. 1. PUBLIC CLOUD - The Public Cloud allows systems and
services to be easily accessible to the general public.
Public cloud may be less secure because of its
openness, e.g., e-mail.
2. PRIVATE CLOUD The Private Cloud allows systems and
services to be accessible within an organization. It
offers increased security because of its private
nature.
3. COMMUNITY CLOUD The Community Cloud allows
systems and services to be accessible by group of
organization.
4. HYBRID CLOUD - The Hybrid Cloud is a mixture of
public and private cloud. However, the critical
activities are performed using private cloud while
the non-critical activities are performed using public
cloud.
11. 1. Infrastructure as a Service ( IaaS)
2. Platform as a Service ( PaaS)
3. Software as a Service ( SaaS)
14. PLATFORM as a SERVICES (PaaS)
PaaS provides the runtime environment for
applications, development and deployment tools,
etc.
Paas provides all of the facilities required to support
the complete life cycle of building delivering web
applications and services entirely from the Internet.
Typically applications must be developed with a
particular platform in mind.
Multi tenant environments
Highly scalable multi tier architecture
16. Software as a service (saas)
SaaS model allows to use software application as
a service to end users.
Saas is a software delivery methodology that
provides licensed multi-tenant access to
software and its function remotely as a
Web-based service.
Usually billed based on usage
Usually multi tenant environment
Highly scalable architecture
