What are the cloud services?

The term “cloud services” refers to a variety of services offered on-demand by companies and customers online. These services are designed to provide easy, inexpensive access to applications and resources, without the need for internal infrastructure or hardware. From email checking to document collaboration, most employees use cloud services throughout the workday, whether they know it or not.

Benefits

Cloud computing is a major shift from the traditional way businesses think about IT resources. Here are seven common causes for organizations to turn to cloud computing services:

Speed
Most cloud computing services are provided with a custom and on-demand service, so even though most computer hardware can be rendered in minutes, usually with just a few clicks of a mouse, giving businesses more flexibility and relieving pressure on power management.
Productivity
On-site data centers often need a lot of “racking and stacking” - hardware setup, software removal, and other time-consuming IT management tasks. Cloud computing eliminates the need for more jobs, so IT teams can spend time achieving more important business goals.
Global Scale
The benefits of cloud computing services include over-the-counter computing power. In the case of cloud computing, that means bringing the right amount of IT resources - for example, more or less computer power, storage, bandwidth - where needed and in the right place.
Cost
Cloud computing eliminates the huge cost of purchasing hardware and software as well as setting up and operating site-builders and servers, full-time power and cooling, IT infrastructure management professionals.
Security
Many cloud providers offer a comprehensive set of policies, technologies, and controls that fully strengthen your security, helping to protect your data, applications, and infrastructure from potential
threats.
Reliability
Cloud computing makes data
backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity easier and
less expensive because data
can be stored in many redundant
sites on a cloud provider’s
network.
Performance
Major cloud computing services operate on a global network of secure database developers, constantly upgraded to the latest generation of fast and efficient computing hardware. This offers many benefits over a single business domain, including network latency of applications and a large-scale economy.

Types of Cloud Computing

Not all clouds are equal and no single type of cloud computing is suitable for everyone. Various models, types, and services have changed to help provide the right solution for your needs.

First, you need to determine the type of cloud deployment or cloud computing architecture, in which your cloud services will be used. There are three different ways to deploy cloud services: public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud.

  • Public cloud

    Public Clouds are managed and operated by third-party cloud service providers, who deliver their computing resources such as servers and storage to the Internet. Microsoft Azure is an example of a public cloud. With the public cloud, all hardware, software, and other supporting infrastructure are managed by a cloud provider. You access these services and manage your account using a web browser.

  • Private cloud

    Private cloud refers to computer resources used only by one business or organization. The private cloud can be physically accessed from the company's data center on-site. Some companies also pay third-party service providers to host their private cloud. An independent cloud is where services and infrastructure are stored on a private network.

  • Hybrid Cloud

    The hybrid cloud comprises public and private clouds, integrated with technology that allows data and applications to be shared. By allowing data and applications to move between private and public clouds, the cloud component provides your business with greater flexibility, additional storage options and helps increase your existing infrastructure, security, and compliance.

Types of cloud services: IaaS, PaaS, serverless, and SaaS

Most cloud computing services fall into four broad categories: infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), serverless, and software as a service (SaaS). This is sometimes called cloud computing because they build on each other. Knowing what they are and how they differ makes it easier to achieve your business goals.

Software as a service (SaaS)

Software as a service is a way to deliver software applications over the Internet, on-demand, and generally through subscriptions. With SaaS, cloud providers host and manage the software and sub-infrastructure and manage any storage, such as software development and security installation. Users connect to an app via the Internet, usually with a web browser on their phone, tablet, or PC.

Platform as a service (PaaS)

The platform as a service refers to cloud computing services that provide the desired environment for developing, testing, delivering, and managing software applications. PaaS is designed to make it easier for developers to quickly create web or mobile applications, without having to worry about setting up or managing sub-server infrastructure, storage, network, and the necessary development details.

Computer without servers

In contrast to PaaS, non-computing computing focuses on building application performance without wasting time continuing to control the servers and infrastructure needed to do so. The cloud provider handles your setup, configuration, and server management. The construction of powerless servers is awesome and driven by events, using only resources when a specific task or trigger occurs.

Infrastructure as a service (IaaS)

The most basic category of cloud computing services. With IaaS, you hire IT infrastructure - servers and virtual machines (VMs), storage, networks, operating systems - from a cloud provider for a fee as you pay.
