What is the cloud?
•Cloud is an elastic architectural structure that delivers its services widely across a network, sharing or pooling its resources among multiple customers so it can deliver rapid capacity growth on-demand and can be billed as a measured service
What is the cloud?
• Elastic Architecture
• On-demand self-service—The ability for an end user to sign up and receive services without the long delays that have characterized traditional IT
• Broad network access— The ability to access the service via standard platforms (desktop, laptop, mobile, etc.)
• Resource pooling—Resources are pooled across multiple customers
• Rapid elasticity—Capacity can scale to cope with demand peaks
• Measured service—Billing is metered and delivered as a utility service

Cloud
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a form of cloud computing that provides virtualized computing resources over the Internet
What about hosting providers? What is the difference?
In most cases: Multi-tenant, leading to scale and performance
IaaS PaaS
SaaS DevOps
Cloud
Platform as a service (PaaS) is a cloud computing model that delivers applications over the Internet. In a PaaS model, a cloud provider delivers hardware and software tools -- usually those needed for application development -- to its users as a service. A PaaS provider hosts the hardware and software on its own infrastructure. As a result, PaaS frees users from having to install in-house hardware and software to develop or run a new application.
IaaS PaaS

Cloud
Software as a Service (SaaS) is a software distribution model in which applications are hosted by a vendor or service provider and made available to customers over a network, typically the Internet.

DevOps is a software development method that emphasizes communication, collaboration (information sharing and web service usage), integration, automation, and measurement of cooperation between software developers and other IT professionals. The method acknowledges the interdependence of software development, quality assurance (QA), and IT operations, and aims to help an organization rapidly produce software products and services and to improve operations performance.

Considerations before you jump in
Strategic Technology Considerations
• Is the application mission critical?
• Does the application have long batch cycles that would benefit from parallelprocessing?
• How volatile is the data? Will data transmission be a bottleneck? How frequent?
• How distributed is the application from an access perspective?
• Will I need to integrate with internal and external systems?
• Is it cost effective to manage capacity needs?
