    Study Notes

    Economic Reasons for Cloud Attractiveness

    • Scalability and flexibility reduce capital expenditures (CAPEX) and operational expenditures (OPEX)
    • Pay-as-you-go pricing model lowers costs and enables cost-effective scaling
    • Reduced maintenance and upgrade costs due to cloud provider management

    Benefits for Application Developers

    • Rapid deployment and prototyping enable faster time-to-market
    • Access to a vast array of tools, services, and technologies
    • Greater flexibility in choosing programming languages, frameworks, and architectures
    • Auto-scaling and load balancing enable efficient resource utilization

    Reducing Execution Time

    • Distributing compute-intensive tasks across multiple virtual machines (VMs) reduces execution time
    • Data-intensive applications benefit from data parallelism and distributed data processing
    • High-performance computing (HPC) enables faster execution of complex tasks

    Advantages of Architectural Styles

    • Modularity and loose coupling enable flexibility and scalability
    • Separation of concerns promotes maintainability and reusability
    • Easier integration with third-party services and APIs

    Cloud Computing Application Example

    • Online collaborative document editing tools, such as Google Docs
