APPLICATION OF CLOUD BASED SYSTEMS Processing pipelines Batch processing systems Web applications
CLOUD TECHNOLOGIES SECURITY ISSUES Traditional security threats Threats related to system availability Threats related to third party data control.
SURFACES OF ATTACKS IN A CLOUD COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT
ETHICAL ISSUES IN CLOUD COMPUTING The control is relinquished to third-party services The data is stored on multiple sites administered by several organizations Multiple services interoperate across the network
BEN E FITS Eliminate large reoccurring capital expenditures Higher quality hardware at a lower cost No expenditures on expensive hardware No need for the upfront capital expense of infrastructure software Fewer Expensive Software Upgrades Predictable IT costs Latest technology Reduce spending on IT operations Reduced IT support costs Tax benefits of cloud computing
COST Technical issues High speed internet connection Training Security in the cloud Company’s sensitive information to a third-party cloud service provider Prone to attack Nothing on the Internet is completely secure
IMPLEMENTATION Virtual Machines Run databases on instances Can use own image or read-made image Database as a service Just the database instance No installation or maintenance required for database server
FEATURES Management Web-based consoles Easily create snapshots Modify or allocate resources Service provider is responsible for installing, patching and updating the underlying software stack Scalability Auto and manual scaling Increase database size as required
Features Data models Relational databases SQL database, such as Oracle Database, Microsoft SQL Server, and MySQL Non-relational databases NoSQL databases, such as Apache Cassandra, CouchDB and MongoDB
BACKUP One of the most popular uses of cloud Vendors provide backup service as part of their complete storage offering Backup using snapshots cloud mirroring Automatic backup operations at specified interval Data stored as compressed and encrypted The popular vendors provide at least 6 replications of the whole data-set around the world Real time seamless mirroring of entire dataset
RE C OVERY Any data from the snapshot history can be restored File synchronization and access from any location Immediate recovery using secondary cloud No interference or interruption in user operations Automated recovery No overhead cost for backup or recovery management
EFFICIENCY AND EFFECTIVENESS Higher worker productivity Economies of scale Utilization of resources Flexibility Abstraction of servers from the application Decrease organizational issues The problem of miscommunication between IT departments driving server purchases, and facilities departments paying the electric bill Power usage efficiency
CAPACITY FOR GROWTH Increasing competition by providing scalability to all sizes of businesses Helping in innovation and better service Helps businesses to grow and survive even in critical economic conditions. E.g. Transics (SaaS Provider) It eliminates or at least reduces the cost of failure Offers a way of future-proofing the business
