What is Cloud Computing? Computing Hardware and Software Delivered as-a-Service over a Network/the Internet

Types of Cloud Computing Infrastructure-as-a-Service Platform-as-a-Service Software-as-a-Service

Infrastructure as a Service Rent fundamental infrastructure: -processing -storage, -networking Deploy software, applications and even operating systems

Platform as a Service Deploy and develop your own software Configure hosting options

Software as a Service No Hardware/Software to Manage Service Delivery via web browser

 Typical CapEx Funding  Full Control of Data and Applications  Internal Management of Compute Resources

 Typical OpEx Funding or Model with Lower TCO  Service Provider Management of Compute Resources  Control/Access to Data Should not be Compromised

 Pay as you Use/Subscription-Based  Lowered Capital/Operational Cost  Lowered Carbon Footprint  Reduced Obsolescence  Focus on Service, Not ICT Ownership/Operation  Economies of Scale

Pay as you Use Lowered ICT Costs Reduced Procurement Time and Cost Greener ICT's Reduced Obsolescence Focus on Service Economies of Scale Improved Application Resiliency and Availability Centralized Applications Ubiquitous Access
