An approach to computing that’s about internet scale and connecting to a variety of devices and endpoints What is the cloud?
Cloud Computing Patterns Inactivity Period On and Off Compute t • On & off workloads (e.g. batch job) • Over provisioned capacity is wasted • Time to market can be cumbersome Growing Fast Compute • Successful services needs to grow/scale • Keeping up w/ growth is big IT challenge • Cannot provision hardware fast enough t Unpredictable Bursting Compute • Unexpected/unplanned peak in demand • Sudden spike impacts performance • Can’t over provision for extreme cases t Predictable Bursting Compute • Services with micro seasonality trends • Peaks due to periodic increased demand • IT complexity and wasted capacity t
Cloud Computing • On premise software • Platform • (as a Service) • Software • (as a Service) • Infrastructure • (as a Service) • You manage Applications Applications Applications Applications • You manage Data Data Data Data Runtime Runtime Runtime Runtime • Managed by vendor Middleware Middleware Middleware Middleware • You manage • Managed by vendor O/S O/S O/S O/S Virtualization Virtualization Virtualization Virtualization • Managed by vendor Servers Servers Servers Servers Storage Storage Storage Storage Networking Networking Networking Networking
Windows Azure Comprehensive set of services that enable you to quickly build, deploy and manage applications across a global network of Microsoft-managed datacenters Flexible Open Solid
Windows Azure Storage Storage in the Cloud Scalable, durable, and available Anywhere at anytime access Only pay for what the service uses Exposed via RESTful Web Services Use from Windows Azure Compute Use from anywhere on the internet
Windows Azure Storage Abstractions Tables Structured storage. A table is a set of entities; an entity is a set of properties. Blobs Simple named files along with metadata for the file. Queues Reliable storage and delivery of messages for an application. Drives Durable NTFS volumes for Windows Azure applications to use. Based on Blobs.
