What is Cloud?

• There is no cloud, it’s just some one else’s computer
• Important Terms in Cloud
  • Cloud Services Provider (CSP):
    • CSP is the owner of physical hardware on which we create virtual infrastructure (compute, storage, memory, network)
    • Examples: AWS, Azure, GCP, AliCloud
  • Cloud Services Consumer (CSC):
    • This is typically an organization which uses services offered by CSP
  • Service:
    • CSP will provide different options to create virtual infrastructure for meeting your application needs, these are referred as Services
  • Resource:
    • Using Services offered by CSP, we create virtual infra for applications which is referred as Resources
• Any Cloud should have the following characteristics
  • On-demand Self-service
  • Broad Network Access
  • Rapid elasticity
  • Measured Service
  • Resource Pooling
• Cloud is categorized into following deployment models
  • Private Cloud: Used by specific organizations, but can be managed by third parties
  • Public Cloud
  • Hybrid Cloud: Composed of public cloud or private cloud or on-premises infrastructure
  • Community Cloud: Used by specific communities Eg: Gov Cloud, Health Care Cloud

Google Global Infrastructure

• GCP has a global footprint.
• A region in GCP is an independent geographic location.
• A zone is a deployment area for GCP resource. Zone corresponds to multiple datacenters in multiple buildings located in the same site
• A Global Network: Google cloud has a high speed fibre network which connects every region and edge location
• This network will help in communication from one region to other region which happens over the global network of google cloud
• Network Edge Location:
  • Connections to GCP Services located in particular metropolitan area
  • Content Delivery Networks
