Cloud Computing market size has significant expectations of growth and revenue

By 2012, customer spending on IT cloud services will grow almost threefold, to $42 billion – IDC

Gartner says the size of the 2008 cloud computing market stood at $46 billion and will jump to $150 billion by 2013 (includes AdWords)

Cloud computing markets at $36 billion 2008 are expected to reach $160.2 billion by 2015 – Wintergreen Research

4 04/11/2023

Most Fortune 500 companies are expected to implement internal clouds of some sort



Analyst projections are consistent due to significant perceived opportunities by venture capitalists

Why Cloud Computing




Agenda



Working Definitions of Cloud Computing points to improved business agility benefits

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

8 04/11/2023

This cloud model promotes availability and is composed of five essential characteristics, three delivery models,

and four deployment models

A standardized IT capability (services, software, or infrastructure) delivered via Internet technologies in a pay-per-use, self-service way

A style of computing in which massively scalable IT-enabled capabilities are delivered “as a

service” to multiple customers using Internet technologies



Cloud solutions need to meet some key characteristics

On-demand self-service

Ubiquitous network access

Location independent resource pooling

Rapid elasticity

Measured service

9 04/11/2023

Inability to meet these characteristics will reduce the benefits harnessed from cloud computing

Shared infrastructure

Advanced Virtualization

Multi-tenancy

Lower time to value



Cloud technology adoption can be categorized under three major delivery models

Business Process as a Service (BPaaS)

Software as a Service (SaaS)

Platform as a Service (PaaS)

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

10 04/11/2023

Other Delivery Models– Database as a Service– Government as a Service– STorage as a Service– Information as a Service– Identity as a Service

– E-mail as a Service– ERP as a Service– TAX as a Service– DEsktop as a Service

To be considered “cloud” they must be deployed on top of cloud infrastructure that has the key characteristics



Each delivery model has unique characteristics with leading providers

11 04/11/2023

Characteristics *-As-A-Service

Examples

Activities delivered remotely combining multiple resources bound together

Business Process

PayPal, Fedex, ADP

Application available on demand to end user used by software consumers

Software or Application

Salesforce, Webex, Workday(HR), Google Apps

Storage, compute and other services to simplify application development, especially of web applications mainly used by application developers

Platform Azure, Google AppEngine, Force.com

Compute power, storage and networking infrastructure over the internet, provided as a virtual machine image used by developers

Infrastructure Amazon, GoGrid, FlexiScale, RackSpace



Cloud technology adoption falls under different deployment models

Private cloud

–enterprise owned or leased

Community cloud

–shared infrastructure for specific community

Public cloud

–Sold to the public, mega-scale infrastructure

Hybrid cloud

–composition of two or more clouds

12 04/11/2023

Two types: internal and external



Cloud computing implementation has some common characteristics

Massive scale

Virtualization

Free software

Autonomic computing

Homogeneity

Geographically distributed systems

Advanced security technologies

Service oriented software

13 04/11/2023

Some of these characteristics will be limited when implementing private clouds



The taxonomy for cloud computing depicts how various components need to work together

14 04/11/2023



The relationships between standards and taxonomies can be used as a starting point to lay out a roadmap

15 04/11/2023

Building a small, low-risk

and limited term cloud

implementation within an

enterprise can provide the

foundation to exploit

additional benefits as

cloud technology

matures
