1. Cloud Computing:
Cloud Computing is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, especially data
storage and computing power, without direct active management by the user.
OR
“Cloud Computing is the delivery of computing services—including servers, storage, databases,
networking, software, analytics, and intelligence—over the Internet (“the cloud”) to offer faster
innovation, flexible resources, and economies of scale.
You typically pay only for cloud services you use, helping lower your operating costs, run your
infrastructure more efficiently and scale as your business needs change.” – Microsoft.
OR
Simply, Computer Services are delivered over the internet and you pay for what you use. It’s
efficient and it scales.
2. Top Cloud Service providers:
I. Amazon Web Services (AWS)
II. Microsoft Azure
III. Google Cloud
IV. Alibaba Cloud
V. IBM Cloud
VI. Oracle
VII. Salesforce
VIII. SAP
IX. Rackspace Cloud
X. VMWare
3. IBM Bluemix, rebranded IBM Cloud in 2017, is a cloud Platform as a service developed by IBM.
4. As-a-service types or the three models of Cloud Services:
a) Software as a Service (SaaS):
I. It is also known as cloud application services.
II. SaaS utilizes the internet to deliver applications, which are managed by a third-
party vendor, to its users.
III. A majority of SaaS applications run directly through your web browser, which
means they do not require any downloads or installations on the client side.
b) Platform as a Service (PaaS):
I. PaaS is a cloud computing model where a third-party provider delivers hardware
and software tools to users over the internet. Usually, these tools are needed for
application development. A PaaS provider hosts the hardware and software on its
own infrastructure.
II. PaaS delivers a framework for developers that they can build upon and use to
create customized applications.
c) Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS):
I. IaaS allows businesses to purchase resources on-demand and as-needed instead
of having to buy hardware outright.

5. Gartner, is a global research and advisory firm providing information, advice, and tools for
leaders in IT, finance, HR, customer service and support, communications, legal and compliance,
marketing, sales, and supply chain functions.
Gartner provide invaluable research.
Gartner even provide Ranking to Cloud Services Provider.
6. Gartner Magic Quadrant is a series of market research reports published by IT consulting firm
Gartner that rely on proprietary qualitative data analysis methods to demonstrate market trends,
such as direction, maturity and participants.
7. Infrastructureless Computing:
a) no infrastructure required or needs to be installed!
b) It is completely a new service i.e., a next generation of Serverless Computing
c) It allows companies to reclaim their existing infrastructure’s computing power by
harnessing idle CPU and GPU resources across their entire organization to act like a single,
decentralized mesh supercomputer.
There is no additional infrastructure to add or manage. Simply install 15MB Computes (It is
a company) nanocore agent on all of your workstations, servers, and VMs and start mesh
computing!
