Cloud Computing
A model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient,
on-demand network access to a shared pool of
configurable computing resources (e.g.,
servers, storage, networks, applications, and
services) that can be rapidly provisioned and
released with minimal management effort or
service provider interaction.

Editor's Notes

  • #2 Base level – important but sorry if you know some of this Some history – important to see why Business value and Technical components
  • #5 Paul hergit physics astronomy
  • #7 Server sprawl Utilization – Accounting folks (separate services) Provisioning time HVAC Costs Managability – vMotion Backup/recovery Migration Fast communication Development/sandboxes (client) Vmware, MS HyperV
  • #9 vSphere, OpenStack ESXI, HyperV
  • #10 Allows vMotion Another factor in move to datacenters
  • #16 Web interface Azure, AWS, CTBS
  • #17 Private - chargeback
