Cloud Computing Definition

[shane10]

Hello All,

From last few days, i am searching for the best definition that could help me to understand, "what cloud computing is ?" or how do you define cloud computing.

I would be happy if someone could define cloud computing for a better idea.

Thank you

The best uk Cloud hosting makes use of a number of different servers in a cluster. This ensures that is atleast a single server available manage the load of the cluster or to replace a crashed server. So in this way you will get 100% uptime on Cloud server.

Cloud Computing can be defined as :- Cloud computing is refers as a provision for a computational resources which are on demand via a computer network. Such as applications, database, file service, email etc. In the traditional model of computing, both data and software are fully contained on the user's computer; in cloud computing.The only access is via Web browser with its features and natural resources. Resources such as processor, memory and disk need not have physical access to the devices they will be
offered by cloud.

* Providing high availability using dynamic access services: software (SaaS), platform (PaaS) and Infrastructure (IAAS).

* Pay-per-use :- Will be controlled by fluctuations in resource utilization with no more limit for processing a given workload, as well as in their use;

I just need to add few point i know about cloud computing.

Monitoring of resources becomes very important to measure financial cost of a particular model of cloud computing which could be hybrid, private or public. Interoperability: any application can run on any operating system and on any platform. New challenges for professional IT staff in regard to migrate an existing infrastructure to a cloud computing infrastructure.

Computing in the Cloud is the wave of the future but who really benefits from its use? Is it any startup that uses Business Server Hosting or is it more seasoned and sophisticated companies with major storage requirements?

A cloud hosted website would be a website that is operated on multiple connected servers. This allows for efficiency in the use of the servers resources.

Cloud Computing refers to the services, where we can do information processing or storage place on the Internet. The keyword "cloud" is essentially a large group of servers connected to the Internet and personal computers to solve problems.

Distinctive features of cloud computing is:

* Availability - all from anywhere where Internet is available, from any computer with a browser
* Cheap - pay as much as using, afford expensive, powerful computers and software
* Simplicity - no need to purchase and configure hardware and software, updating
* Flexibility - unlimited computational resources (memory, CPU, disks)
* A wide selection - programs and services without having to install a local computer, computers of any configuration remotely

Re:

Maintenance cloud computing applications are easier to maintain, since they don't have to be installed on each user's computer. They are easier to support and to improve since the changes reach the clients instantly.
