✓What Is Cloud Computing?
Cloud computing refers to the use of hosted services, such as data storage, servers,
databases, networking, and software over the internet. The data is stored on physical
servers, which are maintained by a cloud service provider. Computer system resources,
especially data storage and computing power, are available on-demand, without direct
management by the user in cloud computing.
✓Cloud Computing Architecture
• Instead of storing files on a storage device or hard drive, a user can save them on
cloud, making it possible to access the files from anywhere, as long as they have
access to the web. The services hosted on cloud can be broadly divided into
infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS), and software-as-a-
service (SaaS). Based on the deployment model, cloud can also be classified as public,
private, and hybrid cloud.
• Further, cloud can be divided into two different layers, namely, front-end and back-
end. The layer with which users interact is called the front-end layer. This layer
enables a user to access the data that has been stored in cloud through cloud
computing software.
• The layer made up of software and hardware, i.e., the computers, servers, central
servers, and databases, is the back-end layer. This layer is the primary component of
cloud and is entirely responsible for storing information securely. To ensure seamless
connectivity between devices linked via cloud computing, the central servers use a
software called middlewareOpens a new window that acts as a bridge between the
database and applications.
✓Types of Cloud Computing:
Cloud computing can either be classified based on the deployment model or the type of service.
Based on the specific deployment model, we can classify cloud as public, private, and hybrid
cloud. At the same time, it can be classified as infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), platform-as-a-
service (PaaS), and software-as-a-service (SaaS) based on the service the cloud model offers.

Types of Cloud Computing
•
• Private cloud- In a private cloud, the computing services are offered over a private IT
network for the dedicated use of a single organization. Also termed internal, enterprise, or
corporate cloud, a private cloud is usually managed via internal resources and is not
accessible to anyone outside the organization. Private cloud computing provides all the
benefits of a public cloud, such as self-service, scalability, and elasticity, along with additional
control, security, and customization.

• Public cloud - Public cloud refers to computing services offered by third-party providers
over the internet. Unlike private cloud, the services on public cloud are available to anyone
who wants to use or purchase them. These services could be free or sold on-demand, where
users only have to pay per usage for the CPU cycles, storage, or bandwidth they consume

• Hybrid cloud- Hybrid cloud uses a combination of public and private cloud features. The
“best of both worlds” cloud model allows a shift of workloads between private and public
clouds as the computing and cost requirements change. When the demand for computing and
processing fluctuates, hybrid cloudOpens a new window allows businesses to scale their on-
premises infrastructure up to the public cloud to handle the overflow while ensuring that no
third-party data centers have access to their data.
Based on the service model, cloud can be categorized into IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service),
PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service), and SaaS (Software-as-a-Service). Let’s take a look at each one.
1. Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) -Infrastructure as a service or IaaS is a type of cloud
computing in which a service provider is responsible for providing servers, storage, and
networking over a virtual interface. In this service, the user doesn’t need to manage the cloud
infrastructure but has control over the storage, operating systems, and deployed applications.
2. Platform as a service (PaaS) - Platform as a service or PaaS is a type of cloud computing that
provides a development and deployment environment in cloud that allows users to develop and
run applications without the complexity of building or maintaining the infrastructure. It
provides users with resources to develop cloud-based applications. In this type of service, a user
purchases the resources from a vendor on a pay-as-you-go basis and can access them over a
secure connection.
3. Software as a service (SaaS) - SaaS or software as a service allows users to access a vendor’s
software on cloud on a subscription basis. In this type of cloud computing, users don’t need to
install or download applications on their local devices. Instead, the applications are located on a
remote cloud network that can be directly accessed through the web or an API.
✓Key Benefits:
Reduced costs: Maintaining IT systems requires big
outlays of capital, something that cloud helps reduce.
By using the resources provided by the cloud provider,
businesses avoid the need to purchase expensive
infrastructure, substantially reducing their expenditure.
Scalability: Cloud allows organizations to grow their
users from merely a few to thousands in a very short
time. Depending on the need, a business can scale their
storage needs up or down, allowing organizations to be
flexible.
Flexibility and collaboration: Since the data on cloud
can be accessed directly via the internet, it gives
employees the ability to work from anywhere, anytime.
Competitive edge: Cloud takes care of various
business aspects, such as maintaining the IT
infrastructure, licensing software, or training personnel
to manage your data.
✓Discuss some challenges of cloud
computing:
• Downtime: Almost every cloud user will tell you
that outages tops their list of cloud computing
challengesOpens a new window . At times, cloud
service providers may get overwhelmed due to the
huge number of clients they provide services to each
day.
• Internet connection dependency: A user may not
be able to access the data on cloud without a good
internet connection and a compatible device.
• Financial commitment: Cloud providers use a pay-
as-you-go pricing model. However, businesses need
to give a monthly or annual financial commitment
for most subscription plans.
• Security risks: Even if your cloud service provider
promises you that they have the most reliable
security certifications, there’s always a chance of
losing your data.
✓Conclusion:
cloud computing has become an indispensable tool for businesses and
individuals alike. Its ability to deliver scalable, cost-effective, and flexible
computing resources has transformed industries and paved the way for future
technological advancements. As the technology continues to mature, addressing
security and compliance challenges will be crucial for realizing its full potential.
