Introduction
• Computing is the process of using
computer technology to complete a
given goal-oriented task.
• Computing may encompass the
design and development of software
and hardware systems for a broad
range of purposes.
What is Cloud Computing ?
• Cloud computing is renting resources
such as storage space or CPU cycles on
another company’s computers, paying
only for what you use.
• The company providing these services is
referred to as a cloud provider.
• The cloud provider is responsible for the
physical hardware required to execute
your work, and for keeping it up to
date.
What is Cloud Computing ?
• The goal of cloud computing is to make running a
business easier and more efficient, whether it's a
small start-up or a large enterprise.
• Cloud computing providers offer a wide range of
services.
• Two most common services that all cloud
providers offer
1. compute power
• You're using compute power everyday, whether
you know it or not.
• VMS, Containers and Serverless
2. storage.
• Most devices read and/or write data.
• The type of data is different in each of these cases.
• Cloud providers typically offer services that can
handle all of these types of data.
Cloud Computing Services
I need to move to the cloud to have a
predictable, OpEx-based technology cost model.
I need to move to the cloud so I always have the
latest and greatest technology.
I need to move to the cloud so my business can
be more agile.
3 Catalysts to move to cloud
• Pricing model.
• Vertical and Horizontal scaling
• Automatically adding or
removing resources.
• Always updated.
• Your data is always safe.
• fully-redundant datacenters
located in various regions all
over the globe.
• Policies, technologies, controls,
and expert technical skills.

Benefits of cloud computing
• Economies of scale are the
ability to do things more
efficiently or at a lower-cost per
unit when operating at a larger
scale.
• Cloud providers are large
businesses able to leverage the
benefits of economies of scale,
and then pass the savings onto
their customers.
Economies of scale
• Capital Expenditure (CapEx):
CapEx is the spending of money on physical infrastructure up
front, and then deducting that expense from your tax bill over
time. CapEx is an upfront cost, which has a value that reduces
over time.
• Operational Expenditure (OpEx):
OpEx is spending money on services or products now and being
billed for them now. You can deduct this expense from your tax
bill in the same year. There is no upfront cost, you pay for a
service or product as you use it.

• Cost Control
Organizations that do not have a high-level cloud computing strategy driven by their business strategy
will significantly increase their risk of failure and wasted investment.
David Cearley, Vice President & Gartner Fellow, Gartner
Some organizations save money moving applications into the public cloud, others spend more money
moving apps into the public cloud. The key to success is to drive cost transparency and accountability to
the business.
David Mitchell Smith, Vice President & Gartner Fellow, Gartner
Move Business To Cloud
• Business Developer
• Enterprise architect
• Solution architect
• System administrators
• Networking engineer
“Applying a cloud-first strategy has many compelling advantages not the least of which is freeing IT from the heavy
burden of building and operating data centers.”
Lisa Heneghan, Global Head of CIO Advisory at KPMG
“It’s not enough to think ‘cloud first.’ To derive significant competitive advantage from cloud, you need to think how
you can leverage it to enable digital transformation, change how you do business, and disrupt your market.”
Verizon 2016 Enterprise Cloud Report
“Using cloud services is not enough. It’s the way you use cloud services that matters. You have to optimize your
applications for cloud computing with the explicit purpose of getting the most value at the lowest effective cost.”
Donna Scott, Vice President and Distinguished Analyst at Gartner

Editor's Notes

  • #5 When you turn on a light, you simply want the light to work. You know you need electricity for that to happen, but in that moment, the details of how the electricity gets to the light bulb aren’t important. You might not think about electricity being created in a power plant, traveling through a large network of high-voltage transmission lines to your town, going through a substation, and eventually making its way into your home.
  • #6 Computing is the process of using computer technology to complete a given goal-oriented task. Computing may encompass the design and development of software and hardware systems for a broad range of purposes - often structuring, processing and managing any kind of information - to aid in the pursuit of scientific studies, making intelligent systems, and creating and using different media for entertainment and communication.
  • #7 Computing is the process of using computer technology to complete a given goal-oriented task. Computing may encompass the design and development of software and hardware systems for a broad range of purposes - often structuring, processing and managing any kind of information - to aid in the pursuit of scientific studies, making intelligent systems, and creating and using different media for entertainment and communication.
  • #9 Cost reduction is not a reason to move to the cloud. Cost control is. Companies often carry 40 to 60 percent of unused overhead. the flexibility to buy only what you need, when you need it
  • #10 Cost-effective This consumption-based model brings with it many benefits, including: No upfront costs No need to purchase and manage the costly infrastructure that they may or may not use to its fullest The ability to pay for additional resources if and when they are needed The ability to stop paying for resources that are no longer needed Scalable Vertical scaling, also known as "scaling up", is the process of adding resources to increase the power of an existing server. Some examples of vertical scaling are: adding a faster CPU, additional CPUs, or adding more memory. Horizontal scaling, also known as "scaling out", is the process of adding more servers that function together as one unit. For example, instead of having one server processing incoming requests, you have two. Elastic As your workload changes due to a spike or drop in demand, a cloud computing system can compensate by automatically adding or removing resources. (Give any example for loading.) It's current When you use the cloud, you’re able to focus on what matters: building and deploying applications. You don't have to be caught up in the maintenance work of software patching, hardware setup, upgrades, and other IT management tasks. All of this is automatically done for you to ensure you're using the latest and greatest tools to run your business. The computer hardware is maintained and upgraded by the cloud provider. It's reliable When you're running a business, you want to be confident your data is always going to be there. (How cloud provider keep data safe). It's global Cloud providers have fully-redundant datacenters located in various regions all over the globe. You can replicate your services into multiple regions for redundancy and locality, or select a specific region to ensure you meet data-residency and compliance laws for your customers. It's secure How Cloud provider secure Data centers and resources.
