CLOUD COMPUTING
What is Cloud Computing?
Introduction to Cloud Computing In this article, we will discuss cloud computing. Cloud computing refers
to a group of computers on a network. In the past, when developing software or web applications, we
would build a website using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and run it on our own machine. However, if we
wanted the website to be accessible to the entire world, we needed a public IP address. To make the
website accessible 24/7, we needed a server with good hardware and software, which required a large
investment.
The Problems with Traditional Server Management
One of the biggest problems with traditional server management is that it is expensive to set up and
maintain. Additionally, if there is a power outage or other issues, the website can go down. This is a huge
problem for businesses as they lose potential revenue. Additionally, if there is a surge in traffic, the
server may not be able to handle the load, leading to crashes and other issues.
Solutions Provided by Cloud Computing
Cloud computing solves these problems by providing a cost-effective solution to server management.
Instead of buying and maintaining servers, businesses can now pay a service provider to handle the
servers for them. This eliminates the need for large upfront investments and reduces the risk of
downtime. Additionally, cloud computing providers can scale their resources up or down based on
demand, ensuring that websites can handle traffic surges without crashing.
Cloud computing is the practice of using a network of remote servers hosted on the internet to store,
manage, and process data. Cloud computing services provide users with access to a wide range of
computing resources, including servers, storage, databases, software, and more.
Types of Cloud Services
▫️ LAAS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) – Provides users with the hardware, networking, and storage needed
to run their own applications. Users are responsible for managing the operating system, runtime, and
containers.
▫️ PAAS (Platform-as-a-Service) – Provides users with a preconfigured platform for developing, testing,
and deploying applications. Users are responsible for building and deploying their own applications, but
the platform handles the rest.
▫️ FAAS (Function-as-a-Service) – Provides users with the ability to run individual functions or modules of
code, without worrying about the underlying infrastructure.
