  • Cloud is a model of computing where servers, networks, storage, development tools, and even applications (apps) are enabled through the internet. Instead of organizations having to make major investments to buy equipment, train staff, and provide ongoing maintenance, some or all of these needs are handled by a cloud service provider.
  • With a public cloud environment, users "plug into" the data and applications via an internet connection giving anytime, anywhere access.
  • Cloud is often pay-as-you-go, where you only pay for what you use. Think about how a utility company meters how much water, electricity, or gas is used and charges based on consumption. The cloud is the same.

  • Services can be requested and provisioned quickly, without the need for manual setup and configuration.
  • Cloud often uses the multi-tenancy model. This means a single application is shared among several users. So, rather than creating a copy of the application for each user, several users, or "tenants" can configure the application to their specific needs.
  • Cloud platforms are elastic. An organization can scale its resource usage levels up or down quickly and easily as needs change.
  • Before cloud computing, companies had to store all their data and software on their own hard drives and servers. The bigger the company, the more storage they needed.
  • This way of treating data is not scalable at speed
  • t's not just businesses that benefit from cloud computing. The cloud has transformed our lives as individuals as well.
  • cloud technology means that companies can scale and adapt at speed and scale, accelerate innovation, drive business agility, streamline operations, and reduce costs.
  • The first thing to consider is the deployment model—public cloud, private cloud, hybrid cloud, and multi-cloud. The next element is the service category—Saas (Software as a Service), Paas (Platform as a Service) and Iaas (Infrastructure as a service). When a company is considering its cloud migration strategy, it must consider both factors.
  • using an internet connection to access computing resources hosted on data centers managed by a third-party cloud service provider, rather than owning and maintaining these resources on-premise
  • hyperscalers.
  • organizations concerned about sharing resources on a public cloud.
  • A private cloud environment gives you complete control over data and securit
  • IaaS is the simplest option for businesses. With IaaS, an organization migrates its hardware—renting servers and data storage in the cloud rather than purchasing and maintaining its own infrastructure.
  • PaaS is a popular choice for businesses who want to create unique applications without making major financial investments.
  • SaaS is the most commonly used cloud application service and is becoming a dominant way for organizations to access software applications.
  • Hybrid cloud eliminates reliance on any single cloud provider and allows for additional levels of flexibility in terms of capabilities, security compliance, etc.

    The article I chose is about the cloud. The cloud as its described in this article is a model of computing enabled by internet access that connects servers and networks to the public without the need to purchase large expensive equipment or staff to perform maintenance, and rather pay a monthly fee where this along with other services are performed. In this article we are given step by step instructions on the cloud computing environment and there five key characteristics. From internet access to measured service, on demand self-service, shared recourse pooling to rapid elasticity, the cloud encompasses many things and if you were like me, unsure of the what the cloud is and its functions, here is a is a step by step manual on the cloud and what it can do for you.

    Among other ways that hotels in the modern are using to ensure safety and security, the article looks at cybersecurity. The author proposes that hotels' security and IT departments should work together to create a safe online environment that "prevents unwanted third parties, like hackers, from intercepting private guest data." This reiterates the significance of updating computer equipment to mitigate potential threats.

    This is a great article that explains the different ways hotels are trying to make staying at a hotel safer. They start by explaining how they have surveillance cameras placed around the hotel to help them see everything that is happening all at once. Cybersecurity protects the hotels computer systems from being hacked and having people steal all the hotels and customers information. Mobile room keys helps guests find their keys faster because they will now have it on their mobile devices. For hotels the guests safety are their top priority and they train their staff to believe in the same thing.
