Cloud Computing Architecture

In this module, you will understand the two main divisions of cloud computing, frontend and backend, that contributes to the working model of cloud computation. The tutor will brief you about the frontend and backend in detail to help you understand how these work together as a single unit with the help of middleware. Next, the tutor will talk about middleware and its importance in cloud computing. Later, you will be familiarized with the redundancy of data in cloud computation. Lastly, you will learn the reasons behind data redundancy in cloud computing. 
 

Cloud computing deployment can be done using any of its four types. Each type has its own benefits and features. This module will cover these four types of cloud deployment: public, private, hybrid, and community cloud. You will go through each type of cloud deployment in detail, as the tutor explains with some examples. 

Here you will get familiar with the key concept, Cloud Computing Architecture and the important concepts that make up the architecture: the frontend and backend. Next, you will understand the management software responsible for managing various operations and cloud services. Later, the tutor will help you learn about hypervisor that assigns virtual operating services to the users. You will also be familiarized with the deployment tools needed to run cloud services. And lastly, you will understand the difference between cloud and on-premise architecture. 

In this module, you will understand some common drawbacks of just using cloud computing for your data and other services. The tutor will talk about the major drawback of only using the cloud, which is a dependency on the internet and security. Lastly, you will understand some other drawbacks in brief, like downtime and vendor lock-in.
