Mr Davis, this is an awesome presentation from you. It is quite educative and informative. The question and answer session has added more clarifications on this topical technology that is creating impact everywhere in the business world. I have learnt a lot just like others. Thanks anf Cheers !!!
This is enriching material. I delved into a book that dealt with the same topic and it was noteworthy. "AWS Unleashed: Mastering Amazon Web Services for Software Engineers" by Harrison Quill
Does David Davis, provide any replies to questions on this comment board? Anyhow, here's my question, whats the difference between Cloud computing and Application Hosting Providers? Seems like pretty much the same concept thats been around for a couple of decades now.
Once it's understood that a CLOUD service is no more than a STUPID way of saying REMOTE HDD. Or better-yet, "we take the hard drive out of, or add space to your computer - providing you with an extra 1, 2 or 3-TB, as much hard drive space you'll ever need on OUR SERVER and charge you a monthly storage/service FEE for the pleasure" - the easier it is to under stand this overstated Webinar "CLOUDED SALES-BUZZWORD-SPEAK". A cloud operates, interfaces, through Windows Explorer, you know, My Computer, to cut copy and paste folders and files of any file type - or at least it should. It moves data around from partition to partition on the internal HDD of yer computer’ - and it moves data around from your computer HDD to the “Cloud HDD and partitions -- simple no big mystery.
+Terry Thomas With respect- No, not quite. This is confusing one single use-case (file storage) with the entire concept of distributed computing. Offsite or “cloud” file storage is, of course, a popular offering to home users who want a second copy of data as a backup that won’t burn down with the house, etc. But, imagine confusing one use-case for a car (drive to the store) with the concept of transportation. We need to avoid letting our narrow experience mislead us. I would agree with the statement that “cloud” is simply a buzz-word for various kinds of remote computing. However, businesses do more with data (files) than save them to one hard disk drive (HDD). They often need to move data around, share it, analyze it, report it, restructure it, etc. and that all looks very different than simple file storage. The cloud does not make any of this happen magically, you could basically do everything locally in your office- if you invested in $100,000 to $1 million dollars’ worth of hardware, software, gear, etc. oh, and then add the salaries of all the expensive specialists to build, manage, operate, and maintain each component. An IT budget over $1m+ a year for even a small business (100 people) is common. Or you could “rent” all that stuff from a cloud provider for $500 a month. Lookup ERP or Salesforce, for example. It’s a bit more than a fancy USB drive.
Prerna Prerna Both are using the web (internet access) in order to work. That means YOU cannot use whatever app or service without paying for internet access. You no longer own something on your device that you can use without being connected to the internet. At least know that this computing concept is heading in that direction. It means more and more control goes to some unknown location with your data, IP address, GPS location, photos if you upload to a cloud service, etc are controlled by government regulations and big corporate policies aka their terms of service that you have to accept if you want to use x app or software.
Nice webinar mr David! With cloud computing I have only one problem: who on earth is going to guarantee that all this valuable info will be protected? Will not be hacked by the competition? Would be sold by the same company that we pay to save? But on the other hand I really appreciate the solutions and new possibilities given by cloud computing! Recently my friend googled Comzetta. which seems to be a combination of storage space and virtual desktop. Maybe someone knows are they reliable? I don’t know this company, but they declare full security of storage files what’s the most important to me, because they’re private, and I want to decide to whom I want to give an access to view it.
+pigment07 The snopes article is good- we love to be smug when we think someone who is successful says something dumb. Yeah, he was talking about the All-Controlling mainframe computer like Sci-Fi movie villains (e.g. HAL 9000, "I'm sorry Dave"). Many people thought that was coming. That we would become pampered pets trapped in our own homes, etc. They also thought at one point that vitamin pills would replace normal food- like steak. Yeah, right. So Ken Olsen was actually saying nobody would want a HAL 9000. He was right. We still don't want washing machines that talk to us, or refrigerators that order groceries automatically. We just don't buy those things.
+pigment07 I love this picture from Popular Mechanics in 1954, the RAND think-tank thought a "home computer" (gasp!) might look like this in 2004... babychaos.wordpress.com/2006/10/18/the-first-home-computer/ I think I need to find a poster version. :D

Confidentiality, integrity and availability

Thanks a lot David.. this is a very good introduction to cloud computing.

This video is really awesome. Thank you!
svp quels sont les mesures de securité pour eviter une certaine tentative d'intrusion(piratage) ou un hacking dans le cloud... svp repondez moi
is there a newer version of this presentation

help me do my project work (cloud computing)
what is the difference between cloud computing and web-based computing?

Wide Area Network (WAN) is the same idea as a community cloud aspect.

well explained comprehensive discuss everything.... good....
Ken Olson's "a computer" is not "a PC". Please refer to www.snopes.com/quotes/kenolsen.asp

Good presentation . Though some real life examples at the start would have been useful in getting the concept
Excellent!!
Well explained.
Excellent Presentation, Very Informative
this video is provide few info not more so plz provide its related other topic
Thanks you.
Great! It is helpfull.
My computer froze and I heard this but I was playing a game so I thought I got a virus and it scared the shit outta me.
+Faintedsquirtle no virus on mine. Run video fine and its an old XP computer.
Orlo Vista I think you misread my comment. I said this video autoplayed while I was playing a game and I thought it was a virus.
Thank u so much
