Cloud Computing
 Cloud computing is an emerging infrastructure paradigm that allows
efficient maintenance of cloud services.

 It allows cost reduction, flexibility, scalability and reducing the power

consumption with efficient use of servers.

 Cloud computing regroups the use of different technologies such as

virtualization, clustering.

 This technology begins to become really popular because it allows

customers to pay only for what they are using.

 If a company needs an important computing power for few days they can
buy it for few days on the cloud rather than to buy machine especially for
that purpose.

Introduction…

 Cloud computing can be defined as –

“a type of parallel and distributed system consisting of interconnected

and virtualized computers that are dynamically provisioned and
presented as one or more unified computing resources based on service-
level agreements between the service provider and consumers.”

 It offers different services as IaaS, SaaS, PaaS .

Basics of Virtualization
“Virtualization is a process that allows for more efficient use of physical
computer hardware and is the foundation of cloud computing.”

■ Virtualization is one of the fundamental components of cloud

computing, especially in regard to infrastructure-based services.
■ Virtualization is the "creation of a virtual (rather than actual) version
of something, such as a server, a desktop, a storage device, an
operating system or network resources".
■ In other words, Virtualization is a technique, which allows to share a
single physical instance of a resource or an application among multiple
customers and organizations.

■ It helps to build a secure, customizable, elastically scalable, and

isolated execution environment on demand and with minimum costs.

Hypervisors
• A fundamental element of hardware virtualization is the hypervisor, or
virtual machine manager (VMM).
• System administrators install the hypervisor software on physical
servers. It recreates a hardware environment in which guest operating
systems are installed.
• A hypervisor abstracts the host's hardware from the operating software
environment.
• IT administrators can configure, deploy, and manage software
applications without being constrained to a specific hardware setup.
For example, you can run macOS on a virtual machine instead of iMac
computers.

• Virtualization software that are powered by hypervisors have several

use cases.
 Desktop virtualization
 Resource optimization
 Failure recovery
 Legacy system continuity

Prepared & Compiled By: Prof. Bhupendra Panchal

Types of Hypervisors
There are two major types of hypervisor: Type I and Type II.

Type I hypervisors run directly on top of the hardware. Therefore, they

take the place of the operating systems and interact directly with the ISA
interface exposed by the underlying hardware, and they emulate this
interface in order to allow the management of guest operating systems.
This type of hypervisor is also called a native virtual machine since it runs
natively on hardware.
Pros and cons
Type 1 hypervisor is very efficient. It can
directly manage and allocate resources for
multiple virtual machines without going
through the host operating system. These
types of hypervisors are also more secure, as
the absence of a host operating system
reduces the risks of instability.

Prepared & Compiled By: Prof. Bhupendra Panchal

Hypervisors
Type II hypervisors is a hypervisor program installed on a host operating
system. It is also known as a hosted or embedded hypervisor. Like other
software applications, hosted hypervisors do not have complete control of
the computer resources. Instead, the system administrator allocates the
resources for the hosted hypervisor, which it distributes to the virtual
machines.
Pros and cons
o The presence of the host operating
system introduces latency to the
virtualized environment.
o When the virtual machine requests
computing resources, the hypervisor
cannot directly access the underlying
hardware but relays the request to the
host operating system.
o Also, the hypervisor and its hosted
virtual machines are dependent on the
stability of the host operating system.

Prepared & Compiled By: Prof. Bhupendra Panchal

Hypervisors
• Three main modules, dispatcher, allocator, and interpreter, coordinate
their activity in order to emulate the underlying hardware.

Prepared & Compiled By: Prof. Bhupendra Panchal

 Hypervisors
• The dispatcher constitutes the entry point
of the monitor and reroutes the
instructions issued by the virtual machine
instance to one of the two other modules.

• The allocator is responsible for deciding

the system resources to be provided to
the VM: whenever a virtual machine tries
to execute an instruction that results in
changing the machine resources
associated with that VM, the allocator is
invoked by the dispatcher.

• The interpreter module consists of

interpreter routines. These are executed
whenever a virtual machine executes a
privileged instruction: a trap is triggered
and the corresponding routine is
executed.

Prepared & Compiled By: Prof. Bhupendra Panchal

Hardware Virtualization Techniques
Hardware-assisted virtualization:
• Also known as native virtualization, in this technique, underlying
hardware provides special CPU instructions to aid virtualization.

• In this, the hardware provides architectural support for building a virtual

machine manager able to run a guest operating system in complete
isolation.

• This technique was originally introduced in the IBM System/370.

• This technique is also highly portable as the hypervisor can run an

unmodified guest OS. This technique makes hypervisor implementation
less complex and more maintainable.

• Intel’s Intel-VT and AMD’s AMD-V processors provide CPU virtualization

instructions that software vendors use to implement hardware-assisted
virtualization.

Prepared & Compiled By: Prof. Bhupendra Panchal

Hardware Virtualization Techniques
Full virtualization:
• Full virtualization refers to the ability to run a program, most likely an
operating system, directly on top of a virtual machine and without any
modification, as though it were run on the raw hardware.

• The main advantage of this technique is that it allows the running of the
unmodified OS.

• In full virtualization, the guest OS is completely unaware that it’s being

virtualized.

• To improve performance, the hypervisor maintains a cache of the

recently translated instructions.

• VMware’s ESXi server uses this technique to achieve server virtualization.

Prepared & Compiled By: Prof. Bhupendra Panchal

Hardware Virtualization Techniques
Para virtualization:
• In paravirtualization, the hypervisor doesn’t simulate underlying
hardware.

• Instead, it provides hypercalls. The guest OS uses hypercalls to execute

sensitive CPU instructions.

• Hypercalls are similar to kernel system calls. They allow the guest OS to
communicate with the hypervisor.

• This technique is not as portable as full virtualization, as it requires

modification in the guest OS. However, it provides better performance
because the guest OS is aware that it’s being virtualized.

• The open-source Xen project uses the paravirtualization technique..

1) Flexibility
• The flexibility of AWS allows us to choose which programming
models, languages, and operating systems are better suited for our
project, so we do not have to learn new skills to adopt new
technologies.
• Flexibility means that migrating legacy applications to the cloud is
easy, and cost-effective. Instead of re-writing the applications to
adopt new technologies, you just need to move the applications to
the cloud and tap into advanced computing capabilities.
• Building applications in AWS are like building applications using
existing hardware resources.
• The flexibility of AWS is a great asset for organizations to deliver the
product with updated technology in time, and overall enhancing the
productivity.
• You can scale up or scale down as the demand for resources
increases or decreases respectively.

Features of AWS
2) Cost-effective
• Cost is one of the most important factors that need to be
considered in delivering IT solutions.
• Setup our own infrastructure can incur considerable costs, such as
power, cooling, real estate, and staff.
• In AWS, you are not limited to a set amount of resources such as
storage, bandwidth or computing resources as it is very difficult to
predict the requirements of every resource.
• Therefore, we can say that the cloud provides flexibility by
maintaining the right balance of resources.
• It has the ability to respond the changes more quickly, and no
matter whether the changes are large or small, means that we can
take new opportunities to meet the business challenges that could
increase the revenue, and reduce the cost.

Prepared & Compiled By: Prof. Bhupendra Panchal

Features of AWS
3) Scalable and elastic
• Scalability in AWS has the ability to scale the computing resources
up or down when demand increases or decreases respectively.
• Elasticity in AWS is defined as the distribution of incoming
application traffic across multiple targets such as Amazon EC2
instances, containers, IP addresses, and Lambda functions.
• Elasticity load balancing and scalability automatically scale your
AWS computing resources to meet unexpected demand and scale
down automatically when demand decreases.
• The AWS cloud is also useful for implementing short-term jobs,
mission-critical jobs, and the jobs repeated at the regular intervals.

AWS Global Infrastructure
Availability zone as a Data Center
• An availability zone is a facility that can be somewhere in a country
or in a city. Inside this facility, i.e., Data Centre, we can have
multiple servers, switches, load balancing, firewalls. The things
which interact with the cloud sits inside the data centers.
• An availability zone can be a several data centers, but if they are
close together, they are counted as 1 availability zone.

Region
• A region is a geographical area. Each region consists of 2 more
availability zones.
• A region is a collection of data centers which are completely
isolated from other regions.
• A region consists of more than two availability zones connected to
each other through links.

AWS Global Infrastructure
Edge Locations
• Edge locations are the endpoints for AWS used for caching
content.
• Edge locations consist of CloudFront, Amazon's Content Delivery
Network (CDN).
• Edge locations are more than regions. Currently, there are over
150 edge locations.
• Edge location is not a region but a small location that AWS have. It
is used for caching the content.
• Edge locations are mainly located in most of the major cities to
distribute the content to end users with reduced latency.
• For example, some user accesses your website from Singapore;
then this request would be redirected to the edge location closest
to Singapore where cached data can be read.

Prepared & Compiled By: Prof. Bhupendra Panchal

AWS Global Infrastructure
Regional Edge Cache
• AWS announced a new type of edge location in November 2016,
known as a Regional Edge Cache.
• Regional Edge cache lies between CloudFront Origin servers and
the edge locations.
• A regional edge cache has a large cache than an individual edge
location.
• Data is removed from the cache at the edge location while the
data is retained at the Regional Edge Caches.
• When the user requests the data, then data is no longer available
at the edge location. Therefore, the edge location retrieves the
cached data from the Regional edge cache instead of the Origin
servers that have high latency.
