All rights reserved The Journey Explained Public – Services or resources such as applications and storage offered over the public internet and available to anyone that wants to purchase the service. With Public Cloud, resources are shared between organisations for cost efficiency. Google mail, Hotmail or Salesforce.com are held in the 'public cloud'

All rights reserved The Journey Explained Hybrid Cloud – A hybrid cloud is a composition of two or more clouds that remain unique entities but are bound together, offering the benefits of multiple deployment models. A hybrid cloud is typically offered in one of two ways: a vendor has a private cloud and forms a partnership with a public cloud provider, or a public cloud provider forms a partnership with a vendor that provides private cloud platforms. A hybrid cloud is a cloud computing environment in which an organisation provides and manages some resources in-house and has others provided externally.

All rights reserved The Journey Explained Private Cloud – Private cloud is a cloud infrastructure dedicated solely to a single organisation that is managed and hosted internally behind a firewall on private networks. What this means is that organisations are able to adapt more efficiently to web based demands and be more cost effective.

All rights reserved The Journey Explained Hosted Private Cloud – Hosted Private cloud is a cloud infrastructure dedicated solely to a single organisation and is managed and hosted by a third party behind a firewall on private networks. What this means is that organisations are able to adapt more efficiently to web based demands and be more cost effective.

The Journey Explained Cloud SaaS – Software as a Service (SaaS) is a software distribution model in which applications are hosted by a vendor or service provider and made available to customers over a network, typically the Internet. Software as a Service (SaaS) allows organisations to access business functionality at a cost typically less than paying for licensed applications since SaaS pricing is based on a monthly fee. Also, because the software is hosted remotely, users don't need to invest in additional hardware. Software as a Service removes the need for organisations to handle the installation, set- up and often daily upkeep and maintenance. Examples of this infrastructure would be Google Mail & Google Docs.

© Copyright 2012 Frontier Technology Limited. All rights reserved The Journey Explained Cloud PaaS – Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a model for delivering operating systems and associated services over the Internet without downloads or installation. The service delivery model allows the customer to rent virtualised servers and associated services for running existing applications or developing and testing new ones. Initial and on-going costs can be reduced by the use of infrastructure services from a single vendor rather than maintaining multiple hardware facilities that often perform duplicate functions or suffer from incompatibility problems. Examples of this platform would be Microsoft Windows Azure and Google App Engine.

© Copyright 2012 Frontier Technology Limited. All rights reserved The Journey Explained Cloud IaaS – Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a provision model in which an organisation outsources the equipment used to support operations, including storage, hardware, servers and networking components. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud physical infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, deployed applications, and possibly limited control of select networking components. The client typically pays on a per-use basis. Examples of this platform would be Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) and Simple Storage System (S3).

A study of 400 major organisations, performed by ZDNET, confirmed that: The cloud is mature -- for some. Half of all respondents said they were confident that cloud solutions are viable for mission critical business applications. Scalability is driving adoption. Fifty-seven percent of companies said it was the top reason that they switched to the cloud. (Business agility was a close second.) Security remains the main hurdle. The cloud may be maturing, but security anxiety is the top reason companies don't make the switch -- 55 percent of respondents expressed concern about it. (Rounding out the top three: regulatory compliance and vendor lock-in.)

A study of 400 major organisations, performed by ZDNET, confirmed that: SaaS leads in dollars spent. A whopping 82 percent of respondents said they use software-as-a-service offerings today. An additional six percent said they'd use it within five years. But PaaS and IaaS aren't far behind. There's a lot of interest in platform-as-a-service and infrastructure-as-a-service offerings. Forty percent of respondents use PaaS today but 72 percent said they'd adopt it in the next five years; IaaS, 51 percent to 66 percent. Efficiency is the name of the game. At 43 percent, backup and archiving was the number one use case, followed by business continuity (25 percent), collaboration tools (22 percent) and big data processing (19 percent).

© Copyright 2012 Frontier Technology Limited. All rights reserved The Future of Cloud Technologies? Community Cloud – Community cloud shares infrastructure between several organizations from a specific community with common concerns (security, compliance, jurisdiction, etc.), whether managed internally or by a third-party and hosted internally or externally. A healthcare community cloud, for example, could be tailored to provide specific security and regulatory requirements that are compliant with HIPAA, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, which regulates strict standards for health-related data protection. Or A financial services community cloud could be optimised to provide ultra- low latency for stock traders to execute financial transactions.
