CLOUD COMPUTING

The entire construct of a cloud system refers to a structure dominated by up to date features, responsive servers and highly reliable infrastructures, all set in an easily accessible virtual storage and it bears the major aim of improving upon one’s operational capabilities as well as ensure full efficiency, consistency and integrity through data security and recovery scheme. Just imagine an abstract (virtual) storage location, accessed remotely, embedding full functions like our traditional PCs. Understandable to specific persons, a cloud structure is just a pool of virtualized computer resources and could be delivered in either of two ways.

 

  • Based on location and
  • Based on service

…but have mainly four types to include;

  1. Public cloud
  2. Private cloud
  3. Community cloud and
  4. Hybrid cloud

 

PUBLIC CLOUD

Public clouds represent cloud types with unrestricted access by subscribers (particularly anyone with access to internet connection and a cloud space). Public clouds provide series of computing services to users on the internet and by doing so includes a cost effective method for both subscribers and host agencies, full accessibility to applications, data and services together with the automated upgrade of these features. Examples of this cloud type include Software as a Service, Platform as a Service and Infrastructure as a Service.

 

PRIVATE CLOUD

Private clouds represent cloud types that restrict access to the cloud servers to a group of individuals like an organization, a company, etc. Private clouds come exclusively to bring reality to the word “privacy” and conquer the primary fault in public clouds. They are built primarily for usage by single businesses and come in two types; on-site private clouds and off-site hosted virtual private cloud. The internal cloud system is all about a firm handling its own cloud hosting and involves pooling of hardware, software, storage, network and virtualization resources to effect this. In doing this, the benefits of a virtualized storage are not denied. The external cloud system has all the benefits of the internal cloud system but rules out the creation of a private cloud environment to a third party who assumes full responsibility for implementation, security and management of the cloud infrastructures.

 

COMMUNITY CLOUD

A community cloud represents a cloud that works in the favour of a group of organizations, etc. that share characteristics or similar cloud requirements.

 

HYBRID CLOUD

The hybrid cloud is probably the only cloud type that allows the combination of two or more cloud types. Cloud types to be included in this combination include the public, private and community clouds. An example of the hybrid system would be the choice to maintain client data/information in-house via the private cloud system in order to preserve the sensitivity while services and other features of the cloud system like security and services are passed to an external body for professional handling, flexibility and versatility. Hybrid clouds are basically a good breed for implementation.

 

Selecting a cloud type requires one to analyze the class of information he/she will be passing to the cloud in order to know what cloud type to go for. This goes a long way into aiding the discovery of what cloud will be most useful and by extension, what cloud provider will be suitable for the task at hand.
