2. Evolution of computing history Main Frame with terminals Network of PCs & Workstations. Client-Server Now, moving forward to Large cloud. 2CS 271

3. Cloud Reality: Data Centers 3CS 271

4. Cloud Computing: Why Now? Experience with very large datacenters – Unprecedented economies of scale – Transfer of risk Technology factors – Pervasive broadband Internet – Maturity in Virtualization Technology Business factors – Minimal capital expenditure – Pay-as-you-go billing model CS 2714

8. Cloud Properties Commodity hardware Large Scale Elasticity 8CS 271

9. App Server Elasticity in the Cloud CS 271 Load Balancer (Proxy) App Server Client Site App Server Client Site 9

10. Why does this work? As long as requests are stateless, we can add more resources, thus providing: Scale Elasticity 10CS 271

11. But, most services need DATA! Challenges: – How to scale with the increasing amounts of data – Where to store the data – Accessing data on multiple sites – Failures 11CS 271

12. Need Fault-tolerance: – Replication Large scale data: – Partition data across multiple servers Multiple Servers: – Time: clocks – Coordination: mutual exclusion, leader election – Consensus: Byzatine agreement, Paxos, etc – Distributed state – P2P 12CS 271

13. Explosive Data Growth Wikipedia has over 3.5 million pages. Flickr members uploaded over 5 billion photos You Tube has 35 hours of videos uploaded each minute “more video uploaded to YouTube in the past two months than there would have been if ABC, CBS, and NBC had been airing 24/7 since 1948!” Gartner 2010 CS 27113

14. Twitter 6 th B’day: March 21, 2012 First tweet: "inviting coworkers“, 2006 a record of 6,939 tweets per second immediately after Japan quake on March 11 2011, and 177 million tweets rest of the day. It took three years, two months and a day for Twitter to get to one billion tweets. Twitter now averages 140 million tweets a day. CS 27114
