Question 1
Complete Marked out of 1.00

What are the service offering models of the cloud?

The service offering models of the cloud are:

   - SaaS (Software as a Service).
   - IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service).
   - PaaS (Platform as a Service).

Question 2
Complete Marked out of 1.00

Distinguish between the de nitions of cloud computing is a service and cloud computing is a
platform. 

Cloud Computing Is a Service

allows us to store and retrieve information. Act as an archive, or return information.
Cloud Computing Is a Platform
support for applications that run on an existing platform such as the operating system or give results to users.

Question 3
Complete Marked out of 1.00

Why is it necessary to understand the various computing paradigms? 

Need to understand different computer models because different computing models have different structures, different
working aspects, suitable for each function and purpose of use.

Question 4
Complete Marked out of 1.00

Will mobile computing play a dominant role in the future? Give your explaination. 

The importance of Mobile Computing :

Connectivity: You can stay connected to all sources at all times.
Social Engagement: You can interact with a variety of users via the Internet.
Personalization: You can tailor your mobile computing to your individual needs.

Question 5
Complete Marked out of 1.00

Is it true that all essential characteristics features of the cloud are necessary to completely
describe it? 

Yes, Cloud Computing has ve essential characteristics. If any of these features is missing, it is not cloud computing:
On-demand self-service.

Elastic resource pooling.

Broad network access.
Rapid elasticity.
Measured service.

Question 6
Complete Marked out of 1.00

What is on-demand functionality? How is it provided in cloud computing? 

Cloud computing services offer a manual or programmatic approach to increasing capacity to match demand. The large
cloud suppliers have (relative to your requirements) effectively in nite capacity. This means you can set up “triggers” to
increase AND decrease capacity to match demand. It is possible to cap these increases if you are concerned about cost
blowouts.

Question 7
Complete Marked out of 1.00

Explain how a cloud application is being accessed.

Third-party data sources and storage services can be accessed with an application programming interface (API). Cloud
applications can be kept smaller by using APIs to hand data to applications or API-based back-end services for processing
or analytics computations, with the results handed back to the cloud application.

Question 8
Complete Marked out of 1.00

What is the difference between scalability and elasticity? 

Cloud Elasticity is a tactical resource allocation operation. It provides the necessary resources required for the current
task and handles varying loads for short periods. For example, running a sentiment analysis algorithm, doing database
backups or just taking on user tra c surges on a website. 
Cloud Scalability is a strategic resource allocation operation. Scalability handles the increase and decrease of resources
according to the system's workload demands.

Question 9
Complete Marked out of 1.00

What is 5 - 4 - 3 principles in cloud computing? 

5 Characteristics of Cloud Computing

Broad Networks, Elasticity, Measured Service, On-demand Self-service, Resource Pooling.

4 Deployment Models

Private Cloud, Public Cloud, Community Cloud, Hybrid Cloud.

3 Service Models

Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a service (PaaS), Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).

Question 10
Complete Marked out of 1.00

How are distributed computing and network computing different or similar? 

Different:
Computer Networks

- Is an interconnected collection of autonomous computers able to exchange information.

- Usually require users to explicitly login onto one machine, explicitly submit jobs remotely, explicitly move les/data around
the network.
Distributed Systems:

- The existence of multiple autonomous computers in a computer network is transparent to the user.
- The operating system automatically allocates jobs to processors, moves les among various computers without
explicit user intervention.
Similar:
- Both distributed computing and network computing will be important in cloud computing.

Question 11
Complete Marked out of 1.00

What are the deployment models of the cloud?

A cloud deployment model is de ned according to where the infrastructure for the deployment resides and who has control
over that infrastructure. Deciding which deployment model you will go with is one of the most important cloud deployment
decisions you will make.
Four cloud deployment models: 
- Public clouds.

- Private clouds.
- Community clouds.
- Hybrid clouds.

Question 12
Complete Marked out of 1.00

Compare grid computing with electric power grid 

Grid Computing is analogous to the electric grid. The only difference is that instead of consuming electricity from grid we
are consuming the wasted computing cycles of computers on a global scale.

Question 13
Complete Marked out of 1.00

Enlist and explain the requirements that need to be considered for cloud services.

Requirements for services in the SaaS:

- Application-speci c requirements
- Network requirements.
Requirements for services in the PaaS:
- Requirements similar to those of the IaaS category.
- Deployment options of user-created applications.

Requirements for services in the IaaS:

- Computing hardware requirements.
- Computing software requirements.
- Storage requirements.
- Network requirements.

- Availability requirements.

Question 14
Complete Marked out of 1.00

Describe a real - life example to illustrate the concepts behind cloud computing. 

The availability of cloud-based BI systems triggered some of the most revolutionary changes in businesses. Complex data
analytics, processing, and reporting systems are now available via the Internet at low price points. A single license can be
transferred to multiple users, requiring no lengthy installation or setup.

Question 15
Complete Marked out of 1.00

What are actors and their roles in a typical cloud ecosystem?

The cloud ecosystem of interacting components and organizations with individuals, together known as the actors who could
be responsible for either providing or consuming cloud services, can be categorized in the following manner:
- Cloud service users: deliver cloud services provided by a cloud service provider(CSP) to actual users of the cloud service.
- CSPs: provides or delivers and maintains or manages cloud services.

- Cloud service partners: provides support to the building of a service offered by a CSP.

Question 16
Complete Marked out of 1.00

What is cloud computing? Why is it needed? 

- Cloud computing is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, especially data storage and computing
power, without direct active management by the user. The term is generally used to describe data centers available to many
users over the Internet.
- The main reasons for the need and use of cloud computing are convenience and reliability

Question 17
Complete Marked out of 1.00

 What is a cloud? 

A Cloud refers to servers that are accessed via the Internet, software and databases running on them. The cloud allows
users to access the same les and applications from almost any device, because computation and storage takes place on
servers in a data center, rather than locally on the user device.

Question 18
Complete Marked out of 1.00

What is on - premise cloud? 

On-premise private cloud is a typical private cloud that is managed by a single organization. Here, the cloud is deployed in
organizational premises and is connected to the organizational network.

- Cost per head.
- Flexibility for growth.
- E cient recovery.
Disadvantages:

- No longer in control. 
- May not get all the features.
- Doesn't mean you should do away with servers.
- No Redundancy.

Question 20
Complete Marked out of 1.00

How may nano computing shape future devices?

Nanocomputing refers to computing systems that are constructed from nanoscale components. The silicon transistors in
traditional computers may be replaced by transistors based on carbon nanotubes. The issues of scale relate to the
dimensions of the components; they are, at most, a few nanometers in at least two dimensions. The issues of integration of
the components are twofold: rst, the manufacture of complex arbitrary patterns may be economically infeasible, and
second, nanocomputers may include massive quantities of devices. Researchers are working on all these issues to bring
nanocomputing a reality.
