 Google Docs:
 Google Docs is a free Web-based application in
which documents and spreadsheets can be created, edited and stored online.
 Files can be accessed from any computer with an Internet connection and a
full-featured Web browser.
 Google Docs is a part of a comprehensive package of online applications
offered by and associated with Google.
 Users of Google Docs can import, create, edit and update documents and
spreadsheets in various fonts and file formats, combining text with formulas,
lists, tables and images. Google Docs is compatible with most presentation
software and word processor applications. Work can be published as a Web
page or as a print-ready manuscript. Users can control who sees their work.
Google Docs is ideal for publishing within an enterprise, maintaining blogs or
composing work for viewing by the general public.
 Google Docs lends itself to collaborative projects in which multiple authors
work together in real time from geographically diverse locations. All
participants can see who made specific document changes and when those
alterations were done. Because documents are stored online and can also be
stored on users' computers, there is no risk of total data loss as a result of a
localized catastrophe. However, the Internet-based nature of Google Docs has
given rise to concerns among some authors that their work may not be private
or secure.

 Comparison of Commercial-Cloud and Open-source Cloud:

 Performance is a critical concern when evaluating cloud providers, but can be
difficult to measure.
 The three main players of business cloud services — Amazon, Google and
Microsoft — have an array of products covering all you can possibly need for
your online operations. But there are differences not only in pricing but also in
how they name and group their services, so let’s compare one next to another
and find out what they offer.
 Amazon, Google, and Azure (in that order), are still pretty much the only
companies that cover the entire spectrum of cloud services. But given how
Netlify has simplified the game, they’ve all had to make significant additions to
the way in which they present their tools to developers in order to remain
competitive.
 Google and Amazon introduced Firebase and Amplify respectively, both
wrapping a bunch of services from the GCP and AWS to present them in a
clear and easy-to-implement way to web and mobile developers.
 Google Cloud Platform provides two open-source tools that you can use to
benchmark the performance of Cloud Platform compared to other cloud
platforms. Releasing these tools as open source makes it possible for
community members to contribute to the benchmarks to keep them up-to-
date and unbiased.

 What you pay will vary a lot depending and how much processing power you
demand, how many instances (that is, how many virtual servers) you deploy,
and where you deploy them (more on this on the “Locations” section). There
will also be significant discounts for bulk usage. In any case, you’ll have these
advantages most of the time:

1. no upfront costs
2. no termination fees
3. pay only for what you use
4. per minute billing

 Solution:

1. Solution is a set of preconfigured products oriented to a very specific need,

with plentiful documentation, use cases and testimonials that will guide you
through the process of adopting the cloud infrastructure.
2. Some typical “canned” solutions are:

 big data: AWS, GCP, Azure

 ecommerce and retail: AWS, GCP, Azure (e-commerce and retail)
 gaming: AWS, GCP, Azure
 government: AWS (federal, sate and local), GCP (federal, state and
local), Azure
 Internet of Things (IoT): AWS, GCP, Azure
 marketing: AWS, GCP (technology and analytics), Azure

 Compute:

 Computers are for, after all: to calculate, to process data — to compute. If

you need faster processing for graphics rendering, data analysis or what
have you, you can either buy more hardware, or you can get on the cloud.
 Sure, if you buy the hardware you own it. It’s an asset. But you’re also
paying for all of the idle time when the computers aren’t doing any actual
processing, plus all of the maintenance that comes with it, which can go
really high if you build a data center.
 When you go on the cloud, on the other hand, you just pay for what you
use and you can scale to thousands of processing nodes in a few minutes
 There’s also the option of renting computing processes for web and mobile
apps, which can offer significant savings when used instead of EC2 or
Compute Engine if your apps fit in the specs of this service.

 Storage:

 Alongside computing, storage is a key pillar to cloud services. In the cloud,

you can store with the same ease anything from a bunch of GBs to several
PBs (1 petabyte = 1,024 terabytes = 1,048,576 gigabytes).
 Beware, though: implementing these solutions is not so trivial, as this is not
a regular hosting for which you just need a user and password to upload
files via FTP. Instead, you’ll need to interact with APIs or third-party

programs, and it may take some time before you’re ready to operate your
storage entirely in the cloud.

 Some other options:

 Brightbox: UK-based cloud hosting for teams that insist on 100% uptime.
 Codero: managed, dedicated and cloud hosting.
 DigitalOcean: Cloud computing, designed for developers with competitive
prices.
 Equinox Metal: previously Packet, a base metal cloud build for developers.
 IBM Cloud: previously SoftLayer, another option for businesses with
widespread locations, backed by IBM.
 Linode: high-performance SSD Linux servers for many infrastructure needs.
 Rackspace Cloud: powered by OpenStack, an open-source technology.
 Vultr: high-performance SSD cloud available in 14 cities worldwide, with
competitive prices.
