Confused about “The Cloud”?
Definition of Cloud Computing according to NIST:  Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. This cloud model promotes availability and is composed of five essential characteristics, three service models, and four deployment models. Characteristics ,[object Object]

Editor's Notes

  1. Essential Characteristics: http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/SNS/cloud-computing/On-demand self-service. A consumer can unilaterally provision computing capabilities, such as server time and network storage, as needed automatically without requiring human interaction with each service’s provider. Broad network access.Capabilities are available over the network and accessed through standard mechanisms that promote use by heterogeneous thin or thick client platforms (e.g., mobile phones, laptops, and PDAs).Resource pooling.The provider’s computing resources are pooled to serve multiple consumers using a multi-tenant model, with different physical and virtual resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to consumer demand. There is a sense of location independence in that the customer generally has no control or knowledge over the exact location of the provided resources but may be able to specify location at a higher level of abstraction (e.g., country, state, or datacenter). Examples of resources include storage, processing, memory, network bandwidth, and virtual machines.Rapid elasticity.Capabilities can be rapidly and elastically provisioned, in some cases automatically, to quickly scale out and rapidly released to quickly scale in. To the consumer, the capabilities available for provisioning often appear to be unlimited and can be purchased in any quantity at any time.Measured Service.Cloud systems automatically control and optimize resource use by leveraging a metering capability at some level of abstraction appropriate to the type of service (e.g., storage, processing, bandwidth, and active user accounts). Resource usage can be monitored, controlled, and reported providing transparency for both the provider and consumer of the utilized service.Service Models:Cloud Software as a Service (SaaS).The capability provided to the consumer is to use the provider’s applications running on a cloud infrastructure. The applications are accessible from various client devices through a thin client interface such as a web browser (e.g., web-based email). The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating systems, storage, or even individual application capabilities, with the possible exception of limited user-specific application configuration settings.Cloud Platform as a Service (PaaS). The capability provided to the consumer is to deploy onto the cloud infrastructure consumer-created or acquired applications created using programming languages and tools supported by the provider. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating systems, or storage, but has control over the deployed applications and possibly application hosting environment configurations.Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The capability provided to the consumer is to provision processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, deployed applications, and possibly limited control of select networking components (e.g., host firewalls). Deployment Models:Private cloud. The cloud infrastructure is operated solely for an organization. It may be managed by the organization or a third party and may exist on premise or off premise.Community cloud.The cloud infrastructure is shared by several organizations and supports a specific community that has shared concerns (e.g., mission, security requirements, policy, and compliance considerations). It may be managed by the organizations or a third party and may exist on premise or off premise.Public cloud. The cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industry group and is owned by an organization selling cloud services.Hybrid cloud. The cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more clouds (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability (e.g., cloud bursting for load-balancing between clouds). Note: Cloud software takes full advantage of the cloud paradigm by being service oriented with a focus on statelessness, low coupling, modularity, and semantic interoperability
  2. KEY MESSAGES:Levering the Cloud can be complicatedHere are some significant considerationsMicrosoft can help you think through the decision and has a full offering to support what you need (traditional, virtualized, private cloud, public cloud)
  3. Microsoft Online Services is the set of enterprise-class software, hosted by Microsoft and sold with partners and delivered via subscription services. Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online was the most recent addition to Microsoft Online Services when it was renamed to more correctly reflect its business audience.The Business Productivity Online Suite is the family of Microsoft Online Services that includes Exchange Online, Office SharePoint Online, Office Communications Online, Exchanged Hosted Services and Office Live Meeting. Exchanged Hosted Services, Office Live Meeting and the dedicated versions (with 5000 seats minimum) of Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, and Office Communications Online are available to customers worldwide. Exchange Hosted Services are attached services that include filtering, archiving, encryption and continuity.The standard versions of Exchange Online and SharePoint Online that are designed for customers of any size based on a shared multi-tenant architecture is available as beta to US customers today. General availability in US is targeted for H2 CY08 and international release in early CY09. The standard version of Office Communications is planned for early CY09.
  4. Now it’s time to introduce the Windows Azure platform, which allows YOUR applications to make use of the cloud.There are 3 main parts to the Windows Azure platform: Windows Azure, which provides hosting and storage in the cloud, SQL Azure, which provides databases in the cloud, and.AppFabric, which provides enterprise-strength communication and security in the cloud
  5. To get started with Azure, you want to… Learn about it. Azure.com has many resources, including some great videos, case studies, and a partner quickstart area. Channel 9 has many videos as well. Download the Azure SDKs and tools also from azure.com. Start building things with Azure. That can be new applications or migrations of existing applications. Get trained – there is sales and marketing training as well as technical training available via the MS partner network and the Windows Azure Training Kit at Azure.com. Get involved with community – network with others and establish yourself as a leader.Community Resources: Local user groups http://ineta.org http://AzureUserGroup.com Blogs · Twitter · Facebook http://www.microsoft.com/windowsazure/community/ http://azurefeeds.com Azure Forums on MSDN http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/azure/ Online code CodePlex solutions (search “azure”) - http:/www.codeplex.com Code Gallery solutions (search “azure”) - http:/code.msdn.com
