Microsoft Azure
Introduction :
Microsoft Azure is Microsoft's cloud computing platform, providing a wide variety of services you can use without purchasing and provisioning your own hardware. Azure enables the rapid development of solutions and provides the resources to accomplish tasks that may not be feasible in an on-premises environment. Azure's compute, storage, network, and application services allow you to focus on building great solutions without the need to worry about how the physical infrastructure is assembled.
Applications of Azure :- Infrastructure Services
- Mobile Apps
- Web Applications
- Cloud Services
- Storage, Backup, and Recovery
- Data Management
- Media Services.
Advantages of Azure :
- Azure infrastructure will cost-effectively enhance your business continuity strategyIt allows you to access the application without buying a license for the individual machine
- Windows Azure offers the best solution for your data needs, from SQL database to blobs to tables Offers scalability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness
- Helps you to maintain consistency across clouds with familiar tools and resources
- Allows you to extend data center with a consistent management toolset and familiar development and identity solutions.
- You can deploy premium virtual machines in minutes which also include Linux and Windows servers
- Helps you to scale your IT resources up and down based on your needs
- You are not required to run the high-powered and high-priced computer to run cloud computing's web-based applications.
- You will not require processing power or hard disk space if you are using Azure
- Cloud computing offers virtually limitless storage
- If your personal computer or laptop crashes, all your data is still out there in the cloud, and it is still accessible
- Sharing documents leads directly to better collaboration
- If you change your device your computers, applications and documents follow you through the cloud
Dis Advantages of Azure :
- Cloud computing is not possible if you can't connect to the Internet
- Azure is a web-based application which requires a lot of bandwidth to download, as do large documents
- Web-based applications can sometimes be slower compared to accessing a similar software program on your desktop PC.
AWS - CLOUD COMPUTING
What is Cloud Computing?
Cloud computing is an internet-based computing service in which large groups of remote servers are networked to allow centralized data storage, and online access to computer services or resources.Using cloud computing, organizations can use shared computing and storage resources rather than building, operating, and improving infrastructure on their own.
Cloud computing is a model that enables the following features.
- Users can provision and release resources on-demand
- Resources can be scaled up or down automatically, depending on the load
- Resources are accessible over a network with proper security
- Cloud service providers can enable a pay-as-you-go model, where customers are
- charged based on the type of resources and per usage.
Types of Clouds :
There are three types of clouds - Public, Private, and Hybrid cloud
.
Public Cloud : In public cloud, the third-party service providers make resources and services available to their customers via Internet. Customer’s data and related security is with the service providers’ owned infrastructure.
Public Cloud : In public cloud, the third-party service providers make resources and services available to their customers via Internet. Customer’s data and related security is with the service providers’ owned infrastructure.
Private Cloud : A private cloud also provides almost similar features as public cloud, but the data and services are managed by the organization or by the third party only for the customer’s organization. In this type of cloud, major control is over the infrastructure so security related issues are minimized.
Hybrid Cloud : A hybrid cloud is the combination of both private and public cloud. The decision to run on private or public cloud usually depends on various parameters like sensitivity of data and applications, industry certifications and required standards, regulations, etc.
