Cloud computing jargon floods the market. Technicians like to wax eloquent about elasticity, scalability and virtual machines. This simple presentation cuts through all the jargon and tells you what is a Cloud in terms that make sense to anybody.

1. What is a Cloud?
Just what a Business Person wants to know

2. Demystifying the Cloud
A cloud is…
A bunch of computers…

3. Demystifying the Cloud
A cloud is…
A bunch of computers…
… pretending to be ONE COMPUTER

4. Demystifying the Cloud
A cloud is…
A bunch of computers…
… pretending to be ONE COMPUTER
with all
CPUs,
Memory,
and
Disks
added
together

5. Demystifying the Cloud
A cloud is…
A bunch of computers…
… pretending to be ONE COMPUTER
with all as if it is
CPUs, ONE GIANT
Memory, COMPUTER
and with lots of
Disks Computing
added power,
together Memory
and Disk.

This “Giant

users to create

“computers” they
need.

12. Demystifying the Cloud
A cloud is…
This “Giant
Computer” allows
users to create
within itself
whatever kind or
size of
“computers” they
need.
Called “Virtual Machines” – because each such
“computer” does not exist physically,
although it behaves exactly like a real computer.

13. Demystifying the Cloud
A cloud is…
Each “virtual
machine” can
expand at will
into a larger or
faster computer
Free by utilizing the
resources

When the need is over, they can shrink, and
the resources become free for other VMs.

16. Demystifying the Cloud
Let’s get more technical
Now that we
understand the
concept, let us look
at a more technical
implementation of
the concept.

17. Demystifying the Cloud
Let’s get more technical
Now that we
understandSo, let us ask the
the
concept, let us look
question again:
at a more technical
What is a
implementation of
the concept. Cloud?
And the answer is…

A server farm or
a collection of a
large number of
servers...

Virtual Machines
can be created, which look and behave just
like real servers on which our applications
can run – with some important advantages.

29. Demystifying the Cloud
A cloud is like a utility
The Electricity Analogy
We are used to consuming electricity as a
scalable service.

30. Demystifying the Cloud

The Electricity Analogy
We are used to consuming electricity as a
scalable service.
When we build a house, do have to install a
power generating plant? No, we don’t.

The Electricity Analogy
We are used to consuming electricity as a
scalable service.
When we build a house, do have to install a
power generating plant? No, we don’t.
Do we pay a fixed price for electricity
whether we consume it or not? No, we don’t.

Do we pay a fixed price for electricity
whether we consume it or not? No, we don’t.
Do we pay more the moment we switch on a
light bulb, and stop paying as soon as we
switch the bulb off? Yes, we do.

33. Demystifying the Cloud
A cloud is like a utility
The Electricity Analogy
When we buy an
additional TV for
home, do we worry
about where to get the
additional power
required? No. We just
plug it into the wall
socket.

34. Demystifying the Cloud
A cloud is like a utility
The Electricity Analogy
The Cloud makes the exact same facilities
available for computing power.

35. Demystifying the Cloud

Computing Power as a Scalable Service.
Just like electricity. That is the Cloud.

36. Demystifying the Cloud
A cloud is like a utility
The Cloud is
totally
transforming the
way companies
provide for
computing
power.

37. Demystifying the Cloud

The next generation may not even be aware
that computing power was ever available any
other way.
