Clusters Grids Clouds (Physical wiring of multiple computers) High Performance clusters High Availability clusters (Peer-to-Peer architctue, No Abstraction layer) Compute Grid Data Grid Service Grid Application Grid (Virtualized, Abstraction Layer, Image standardization, Services Driven, Utility model) Public Clouds Private Cloudds Hybrid Clouds Diagram from Pankaj Deep Kaur, I.C.: ‘Unfolding the Distributed Computing Paradigms 3

4. Scale Unit cost Traditional Infrastructure Internal Cloud Service Provider Cloud (cost) Large enterprises can significantly reduce costs for some workloads compared with traditional IT. Diagram from IBM cloud presentation Cloud Computing enables economies of scale 4

5. Banks use automated teller machines to improve service and lower cost. Manufacturers use robotics to improve quality and lower cost. Telcos automate traffic through switches to assure service and lower cost. Standardization and Automation have changed many other industries become more efficient. … breakthroughs like these are enabled by service management systems. Diagram from IBM cloud presentation 5

9. 9 Quantum Computing  Traditional Computing –Computes in a linear fashion –Computation done by microprocessors one computation at a time –Push to have many tasks process at once (Parallel Computing)  Parallel Computing –Many calculations are carried out simultaneously –Major tasks are divided into smaller ones and processed at once –This would allow for enormous leaps in the world of computing  Essence of Quantum Computing –A computer must be able to store information as strings of 1’s and 0’s (Bits). –A computer must be able to manipulate the stored bits per given instructions. NOT OR and AND Gates. –The operating environment must be completely protected from radiation, magnetic and electric fields as well as noise and motion.

10. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) Classical Cryptography (becoming vulnerable) – Secret or symmetric key cryptography – Public key cryptography or asymmetric cryptography Important Quantum Properties – Principle of Superposition – Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle – Quantum Entanglement 10

11. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) 11  1984Charles Bennett and Gilles Brassard Protocol (BB84) – Photon polarization state to encode 0’s and 1‘s at 0 o or 90 o in the rectilinear base or 45 o and 135 o in a diagonal base.  1992 Charles Bennett (B92)  Only two of the four states mentioned are necessary for B92

12. 12  The most basic QKD system involves: – A sender(Alice) and receiver (Bob), –A quantum channel and a – Conventional communication channel. –Then you might encounter (Eve) the eavesdropper. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) System

13. ITIL Service Transition Source: ITIL Service Transition

14. We need a Release Management process that leverages QKD  Integrity of the modules (Cloud Images)  Track, Install, Verify and Validate deployed modules  Manage deviations  Risk: Breach in physical/information security  Security depends on VPN  Secure key exchange required Conclusion
