INTRODUCTION 
Cloud computing is the use 
of computing resources (hardware and 
software) that are delivered as a service 
over the Internet.
When you store your photos online instead 
of on your home computer, or use webmail 
or a social networking site, you are using a 
“cloud computing” service.
 Cloud Computing promotes availability and is 
composed of 
 Five essential characteristics 
 Three service models and 
 Four deployment models
CHARACTERISTICS 
There are five key characteristics of cloud 
computing: 
 On-demand self service 
 Broad network access 
 Resource pooling 
 Rapid elasticity and 
 Measured service
SERVICE MODELS 
Service Models are the reference models on which 
the Cloud Computing is based. These can be 
categorized into three basic service models: 
 Software as a Service (SaaS) 
 Platform as a Service (PaaS) and 
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
Cloud Clients 
Web browser, mobile app, clients 
SaaS 
Application CRM, Email, games, virtual desktop 
PaaS 
Database, web server, deployment 
tools 
IaaS 
Virtual machines, storage, networks 
Platform 
Infrastructure
DEPLOYMENT MODELS 
Deployment models define the type of access to 
the cloud. These are: 
 Private cloud 
 Community cloud 
 Public cloud and 
 Hybrid cloud
PURPOSE OF CLOUD 
COMPUTING 
By using the Cloud infrastructure on “pay as used and on 
demand”, all of us can save in capital and operational 
investment! 
Clients can: 
Put their data on the platform instead of on their own 
desktop PCs and/or on their own servers. 
They can put their applications on the cloud and use the 
servers within the cloud to do processing and data 
manipulations etc.
