Cloud Computing Architecture and Service Models

This book provides a basic guide to cloud computing architecture, service models, front-end and back-end architecture, cloud-enabling technology, and deployment models. It is an essential resource for students, researchers, and professionals who seek to deepen their knowledge of cloud computing and its underlying principles.

The book begins by introducing cloud computing and its service models, including Software as a Service (SaaS), Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), and Platform as a Service (PaaS). It then delves into front-end architecture, which focuses on the user interface and the design of the cloud-based applications that users interact with. The back-end architecture is also examined in detail, covering topics such as storage, compute, and networking.

The book then explores the various cloud-enabling technologies, including virtualization, containers, and serverless computing. These technologies enable organizations to leverage the benefits of cloud computing and create scalable and flexible cloud-based solutions.

The deployment models of cloud computing are also discussed in this book. It covers the public cloud, private cloud, and hybrid cloud deployment models, examining the advantages and disadvantages of each. Overall, this book provides a basic of cloud computing architecture and its underlying principles.
