Cloud Computing Architecture
The front end is used by the client. It contains client-side interfaces and
applications that are required to access the cloud computing platforms.
The front end includes web browsers (including Chrome, Firefox, internet
explorer, etc.), thin & fat clients, tablets, and mobile devices.
Back End
The back end is used by the service provider. It manages all the resources that
are required to provide cloud computing services.
It includes a huge amount of data storage, security mechanism, virtual
machines, deploying models, servers, traffic control mechanisms, etc.
Components of Cloud Computing
Architecture
1. Application
The application may be any software or platform that a client wants to access.
2. Service
A Cloud Services manages that which type of service you access according to the client’s
requirement. IaaS, PaaS,Saas
3. Runtime Cloud
Runtime Cloud provides the execution and runtime environment to the virtual machines.
4. Storage
Storage is one of the most important components of cloud computing. It provides a huge amount
of storage capacity in the cloud to store and manage data.

5. Infrastructure
It provides services on the host level, application level, and network level. Cloud infrastructure includes
hardware and software components such as servers, storage, network devices, virtualization software,
and other storage resources that are needed to support the cloud computing model.
6. Management
Management is used to manage components such as application, service, runtime cloud, storage,
infrastructure, and other security issues in the backend and establish coordination between them.
7. Security
Security is an in-built back end component of cloud computing. It implements a security mechanism in
the back end.
8. Internet
The Internet is medium through which front end and back end can interact and communicate with
each other
