The document introduces cloud computing and Amazon Web Services. It defines cloud computing as on-demand access to scalable computing resources and services. It describes how AWS provides infrastructure services through EC2 virtual machines, storage through S3, and other services. It presents a case study of a file storage platform called MyNetworkFolders that uses AWS to dynamically scale its infrastructure based on user demand and minimize costs.
This deck walks you through the overview of the AWS landscape, its architecture, services and adoption. It also gives a view of AWS EC2, S3 and other services or storage options. The detailed tutorial by AWS solution architects will get you started firmly on the AWS and cloud computing career track.
This slide is about the cloud computing a war of stacks containing enterprises view and the use of three layers of cloud computing on their company. Big companies like Microsoft, Google, Amazon and many more small companies who are using cloud and acting as a cloud service provider are mentioned and described in the slide.
In this presentation I guide different options Microsoft Azure provides to develop a rich data solution.
This was demonstrated to students of University of Ruhuna, Sri Lanka
This is the first draft of Azure and cloud. Currently it is only about the fundamentals of cloud computing and how it is different from on-premises solution.
Later I will move towards Azure cloud and Active Directory
Compare Cloud Services: AWS vs Azure vs Google vs IBMRightScale
Β
Most enterprises are leveraging multiple clouds, but it can be difficult to understand which services are available in each cloud and how they compare. If you are looking to move a workload, you may not know what the equivalent services are on a different cloud. We outline the services available for each public cloud provider and share a free tool to compare public cloud features.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
Β
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Β
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as βpredictable inferenceβ.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
4. "The Cloud"
Different meaning: (a) user perspective, (b) software engineer /
systems perspective
source: wikipedia.org
source: shanghaiwebhosting.com
5. Cloud Computing
β The natural evolution of widely used technologies and
computing paradigms, like:
β the client-server model
β virtualization (dynamic multiple "virtual" machines
contained into a physical one)
β the service oriented architecture
β utility computing
β The "Cloud Computing" buzzword focuses more on the
business model than on the technologies involved
β computing/network resources consumed on demand
β elasticity - scalability
β service, resources managed by the provider
6.
7. Type of Cloud Computing Services
β Based on the service offered:
β Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) - Amazon AWS
β Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) - Google Appengine
β may also include Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) -
SalesForce.com
β Based on ownership:
β Public clouds - offer services to everyone
β Private clouds - in-house solutions
β Hybrid clouds - little bit of both
8. the goal of cloud computing is to provide
on demand, scalable access
to computing resources
& IT services
9. How ?
IaaS: you built your software and rent
β Virtual machines (time based)
β Storage (e.g. bytes per month)
β Traffic in/out (per month)
β Additional services (via API calls)
β Deploy your software components and
you manage elasticity & scalability
PaaS:
β Deploy your specially designed application and the
service handles elastic usage of resources / scaling
SaaS: you rent the usage of a software product
β on a subscription basis (per user cost)
β or on demand (time & per user cost)
β some application customization is offered
10.
11. What, how, why in 3 bullets...
β What's Amazon Web Services: pay-as-you-go access to
cloud infrastructure and elastic services via REST/SOAP
and/or a Web-based console.
β How (simplified):
β create machine images (AMIs)
β launch VMs (boot from AMIs)
β attach persistent volumes (EBS vols)
β login and install software & applications
β (optional) use other AWS services via REST/SOAP
β Why:
β dynamic, elastic usage of resources
β cost-effective high availability (e.g. S3)
β pay on usage (hourly-rate)
14. AWS products & services
β EC2: your virtual machines in predefined HW configurations
β EBS: persistent block storage (faster than S3, slower than
volatile EC2 instance disks)
β S3: object (file) storage via REST/SOAP, high availability
and geographical replication, also used for your AMIs
β CloudFront: Amazon's CDN
β Cloudwatch / Autoscaling: monitoring and scaling of EC2
β Elastic Cache: distributed in-memory cache
15. AWS products & services (cont'd)
β SQS: distributed queue
β SNS: notification service(messaging / topics & events)
β SES: scalable, bulk e-mail service
β SimpleDB / RDS: Amazon's NoSQL / RDBMS services
β Elastic MapReduce: Hadoop on EC2/S3
β and more on deployment and management, payments/e-
commerce, networking... etc
16. Costs
β There is a free usage tier: new user sign-up, one year for a
Linux micro instance
β Pay as you go for what you use
β pay usage per hour
β pay for traffic (volume)
β pay for storage (volume)
β pay for I/O operations / transactions
β Much more expensive than the typical rented physical
machines / VMs
17. Expensive? Why should I use it?
β Cost effective high availability
β Elasticity, easy to scale up/down dynamically
β REST-based infrastructure management & monitoring
β Massive processing power for short periods
β e.g. launch 10.000 VMs for a week
β MapReduce big data projects
β It's not cost-effective to use EC2 instances for your low-
traffic web site (maybe on the free-tier)
19. β SaaS offering implemented by EBS.gr
β A distributed, scalable and elastic file storage platform that:
β supports access via multiple user interfaces (web
browser, mobile devices, desktop, WebDAV)
β provides an API for building custom client applications
β it is based on EBS's open source project gss-project.org
β It is designed for operating in the cloud, currently deployed
at the Amazon cloud.
20.
21. High level architecture requirements
β MyNetworkFolders requires multiple servers for hosting its
software components:
β duplicated (for fault tolerance) front-end web server
β cluster of (at least two) application servers
implementing the core business logic
β database cluster for storing meta-data and other info
β search / indexing server cluster for full text search
β a secure, efficient and scalable file storage system
β All these add up to at least three virtual servers and can
easily grow to clusters of tens of servers.
22. Hosted vs the Cloud
β Old school hosting solution: private or rented physical
servers in a data center:
β always maintain and support a minimum number of
servers even when the load is low
β energy & cost efficient adaptation to fluctuating load is
almost impossible to achieve
β scaling up requires buying/renting and setting up new
physical servers (and supporting equipment)
β for the application
β for the storage subsystem
β high operating costs for a small company, especially for
achieving a high level of fault tolerance / availability
23. Hosted vs the Cloud
β Having mynetworkfolders.com hosted in the cloud:
β use and pay only what we need
β easily and dynamically grow or shrink resource usage
(and energy consumption) to meet fluctuating user
demand during the day
β easily scale up (more virtual servers) when the user
base increases, or when new functionality is added
β economy of scale offers high availability and fault
tolerance in an affordable cost
β minimize operational costs
24. AWS Technologies & Products Used
β Currently using in production:
β EC2 for server instances (app, db, search,admin)
β S3 - reliable, replicated file storage
β the main reason we used AWS
β CloudWatch (monitoring)
β Plan to use:
β Elastic Load Balancing
β CloudFront
