a) Cloud Computing is a type of computing that delivers computing, storage and
even applications as a service across a network by using virtualization
technology. Show (C3) TWO (2) technologies how an SME (small and medium
enterprise) company with very limited computing and storage resources can
overcome the problems.
The use of:
1. Software-as-a-Service (SaaS): The cloud service provider provides and manages
this. With SaaS, an organization merely needs to find a provider that offers the
solution it requires, which must already be adapted to the needs of its
employees, but the caveat is that the supplier must assure that the service is
always available.
2. Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS): This cloud services delivers the entire
infrastructure stack, which includes servers, RAM, CPUs, disc space, and
network connectivity, as well as enabling technologies.
