Introduction
Cloud computing is the internet that provides access to delivery of different services such as servers, networking, software and databases especially for computing power, data storage. It offers a wide range of services with limitless potential, epic
proportions of creativity , faster time-to-solution and to-market. Basically, it is resources being rented by other companies such as storage space and CPU cycles. Microsoft, Amazon and Google are types of cloud computing companies. The purpose of this paper is to compare the evaluations of the services the top three cloud computing service providers offered in the market.
Cloud Models
There are three types of cloud models : Public Cloud, Private Cloud and Hybrid
Cloud
- Public Cloud
This model is widely used in software development as the scalability is
smooth and easy due to its large amount of available space. Applications can
be designed with portable attributes and often tested and analyzed in the
public cloud before the production in the private cloud. It is versatile as it is
“pay as you go” structured and this provides convenience to the consumers
to plan the capacity on demand.
- Private Cloud
Private cloud is more to business like and widely used in organizations. This
is because it has firewall protection and offers security control to the
organization although it is costly. Its functionality is quite similar with public
cloud, but only authorized users can access the data
- Hybrid Cloud
It is a combination of the two types of cloud, public and private cloud,
providing interaction between them. Hybrid cloud has the capability such as
the scalable computing power in the public cloud, and provides the security
control in the private cloud at the same time.
