On-demand self-service
On-demand self-service: An end-user can unilaterally provision computing capabilities, such as server
settings and network storage when needed, without any interaction from the provider's IT
administrator.
broad network access
Broad network access means that the cloud customer or tenant, whoever's consuming a service, does
not manage the IT service infrastructure. And as a result, this means that that IT service runs in a
provider data center somewhere and is therefore accessible to the consumer over a network.
Resource Pooling
Resource pooling is when cloud providers offer provisional and scalable services to multiple clients or
customers. In other words, space and resources are pooled to serve multiple clients at one time.
Depending on a client's resource consumption, usage can be set to provide more or less at any given
time
Another advantage of using resource pooling-based services is load balancing. In this
case, users will not have any issues in terms of server speed. Multi-tenant technologies
provide users with superior performance. Users can store data conveniently and securely or use
services with enhanced security features
What are the three resource pools for cloud computing?
The architecture of a cloud computing environment is presented with three resource
pools: compute, networks, and storage. Each is abstraction provided by a
virtualization layer.
Measured Service
Measured service is a delivery model in which a utility provider monitors how
much of a particular service each customer consumes within a designated
time period. Measured services give the provider insight into resource
consumption and provide customers with transparency into how they are
billed for the services they consume.
