AWS Cloud Practitioner Essentials

The document discusses different cloud computing deployment models: - Cloud-based deployment runs all application parts in the cloud and migrates existing apps or builds new apps for the cloud. - On-premises or private cloud deployment deploys resources using virtualization and management tools on local infrastructure. - Hybrid deployment connects cloud-based resources to on-premises infrastructure, integrating some cloud services with legacy apps.

In computing, a client can be a web browser or desktop application that a person

interacts with to make requests to computer servers. A server can be services such
as Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), a type of virtual server.

For example, suppose that a client makes a request for a news article, the score in
an online game, or a funny video. The server evaluates the details of this request
and fulfills it by returning the information to the client.

1. Deployment models for cloud computing

When selecting a cloud strategy, a company must consider factors such as required
cloud application components, preferred resource management tools, and any legacy
IT infrastructure requirements.

The three cloud computing deployment models are cloud-based, on-premises, and
hybrid.

Select each tab to learn about each category.

A. Cloud based:
Run all parts of the application in the cloud.
Migrate existing applications to the cloud.
Design and build new applications in the cloud.
In a cloud-based deployment model, you can migrate existing applications to the
cloud, or you can design and build new applications in the cloud. You can build
those applications on low-level infrastructure that requires your IT staff to
manage them. Alternatively, you can build them using higher-level services that
reduce the management, architecting, and scaling requirements of the core
infrastructure.

For example, a company might create an application consisting of virtual servers,


databases, and networking components that are fully based in the cloud.

B. On-premises:
Deploy resources by using virtualization and resource management tools.
Increase resource utilization by using application management and virtualization
technologies.
On-premises deployment is also known as a private cloud deployment. In this model,
resources are deployed on premises by using virtualization and resource management
tools.

For example, you might have applications that run on technology that is fully kept
in your on-premises data center. Though this model is much like legacy IT
infrastructure, its incorporation of application management and virtualization
technologies helps to increase resource utilization.

C. Hybrid:
Connect cloud-based resources to on-premises infrastructure.
Integrate cloud-based resources with legacy IT applications.
In a hybrid deployment, cloud-based resources are connected to on-premises
infrastructure. You might want to use this approach in a number of situations. For
example, you have legacy applications that are better maintained on premises, or
government regulations require your business to keep certain records on premises.

For example, suppose that a company wants to use cloud services that can automate
batch data processing and analytics. However, the company has several legacy
applications that are more suitable on premises and will not be migrated to the
cloud. With a hybrid deployment, the company would be able to keep the legacy
applications on premises while benefiting from the data and analytics services that
run in the cloud.

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2)

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) provides secure, resizable compute
capacity in the cloud as Amazon EC2 instances.

Imagine you are responsible for the architecture of your company's resources and
need to support new websites. With traditional on-premises resources, you have to
do the following:

Spend money upfront to purchase hardware.


Wait for the servers to be delivered to you.
Install the servers in your physical data center.
Make all the necessary configurations.

By comparison, with an Amazon EC2 instance you can use a virtual server to run
applications in the AWS Cloud.
You can provision and launch an Amazon EC2 instance within minutes.
You can stop using it when you have finished running a workload.
You pay only for the compute time you use when an instance is running, not when it
is stopped or terminated.
You can save costs by paying only for server capacity that you need or want.

How Amazon EC2 works?


Launch, Connect, Use.
