Study Notes
Cloud Deployment Models
- Private Cloud: infrastructure dedicated to a single organization, can be on-premises or off-premises, offers enhanced control, customization, and privacy, but requires significant upfront investment.
- Hybrid Cloud: combines public and private cloud environments, allowing for flexibility and data sharing, enables workload portability and seamless integration between different environments.
Cloud Roles
- Cloud Consumer: an individual or organization that engages in a business partnership with Cloud Providers and utilizes their services.
- Cloud Provider: a person, organization, or entity that is accountable for offering services to individuals or entities.
- Cloud Auditor: a party capable of conducting an impartial evaluation of cloud services, as well as assessing performance, security, and operations.
- Cloud Broker: an entity responsible for managing the utilization, performance, and delivery of cloud services, acts as a mediator between Cloud Providers and Cloud Consumers.
- Cloud Carrier: an intermediary that facilitates the connectivity and transportation of cloud services from Cloud Providers to Cloud Consumers.
Cloud Architecture Best Practices
- Up-front Planning: prioritize up-front planning to understand capacity needs and avoid unexpected production glitches.
- Security First: implement robust security measures to protect against unauthorized access, safeguard all layers of the cloud infrastructure through data encryption, patch management, and strict security policies.
Service Models
- Software as a Service (SaaS): delivers software applications over the internet on a subscription basis, users can access and use applications directly through a web browser or APIs, provider hosts and manages the underlying infrastructure, application, and data.
Benefits of Cloud
- Cost Savings: pay for what you use, with no upfront infrastructure costs.
- Scalability: easily scale resources up or down based on demand.
- Flexibility: access resources and applications from anywhere with an internet connection.
- Reliability: cloud providers typically offer high uptime and data redundancy.
- Collaboration: enable seamless collaboration and data sharing among teams.
