Real IT Savings: Cloud Data Management
Planning Your Cloud Computing Strategy
Cloud computing affects us all. We use it daily, like checking weather apps.
It’s looks like magic how the weather forecast reaches your phone? Not really.
That’s cloud computing in action and we demonstrate how to get your own magic.
EasyData specializes in data science solutions that might seem abstract to average internet users. Yet, these same users often benefit from our services. As data scientists, we are keen to explore cloud computing’s wonders and explain its foundations clearly. This article covers private, public, and hybrid cloud basics in plain terms.
Cloud Computing example: Private Cloud
A private cloud is an internet-accessible service, like storing photos on your personal NAS drive. When you can view those photos on your phone, but your neighbor can’t. That’s a private cloud. Your NAS, for example, has access rights only you control.
Taking cloud computing further means storing data not separately on a NAS, but managed and categorized in a database. Even searching for photos becomes smarter – modern software like Google Lens can analyze image contents.
EasyData creates custom algorithms that recognize specific objects in photos.
Private Cloud Summary:
A private cloud dedicates all hardware to one person or organization.
Cloud Computing example: Public Cloud
Public cloud delivers services and hardware through external providers, shared by multiple organizations or individuals. Think on solutions for your personal cloud storage for photos through services like NextCloud. Working with NextCloud you avoid hardware hassles, power needs and constant security updates: The provider handles these collectively. Or you make your own NextCloud as it’s an Open Source solution.
Cloud Providers
Providers may tempt you with temporary free services, but remember, only sunshine is truly free. Reliable services require sustainable models. EasyData offers transparent private cloud subscriptions, often with free trial periods. We help choose the right cloud model: Some clients prefer private to public clouds.
Public Cloud Summary:
Public cloud shares computing benefits across users on shared hardware, allowing near-limitless scaling while the provider maintains the environment.
Cloud Computing example: Hybrid Cloud
Hybrid cloud combines private and public cloud services. Though it sounds complex, it’s actually the most common setup. For example: taking a phone photo (local action) then sending it to EasyData’s cloud for analysis (public cloud service). Your phone can’t handle heavy data processing, that’s where public cloud power helps.
Hybrid Cloud Summary
Hybrid cloud keeps on-premise convenience while adding public cloud flexibility.
That means that in some circumstances, Hybrid Cloud brings you the best of Cloud!
Cloud Software
“Cloud software” refers to applications running remotely instead of your local machine. Our detailed article compares cloud types (On-Premise, IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) and their financial implications to guide your choice.
