“How About $10 Per Terabyte?”
• Lease storage capacity from third party.
• All incoming data from drones automatically uploaded.
• Average monthly storage costs cut at least 50%.
• Power savings, backup time saved, no new hardware
configuration.

Learning Objective 6.1
• Why are organizations moving to the cloud?
Benefits of the Cloud
• The Cloud
– Elastic leasing of pooled computer resources over the
Internet
– Elastic
▪ Automatically adjusts for unpredictable demand
▪ Limits financial risks
– Pooled
▪ Same physical hardware
▪ Economies of scale
Where Did the Cloud Come From? (1 of 2)
• The Mainframe Era (1960s–1980s)
– Large-scale high-speed centralized computers.
– Thin clients, no Internet, and no Cloud.
• The Client-Server Era (1990s–2000s)
– Allowed clients (users) to send requests across the
Internet to servers.
– Internet, but no modern cloud computing yet.

Where Did the Cloud Come From? (2 of 2)
• The Cloud Computing Era (2008–Current)
– Applications, data, and processing power can be used
remotely.
– Accessed with a variety of devices including PCs, thin
clients, mobile devices, and IoT devices.
Figure 6-3 The Cloud Computing Era
(2008–Current)
Why Do Organizations Prefer the Cloud?
• Lower costs – cheap processors, essentially free data
communication and storage.
• Ubiquitous access
• Improved scalability
• Elasticity
• Virtualization technology
• Internet-based standards enable flexible, standardized
processing capabilities.

When Does the Cloud Not Make Sense?
• When law or standard industry practice require physical
control or possession of the data.
– Financial institutions legally required to maintain
physical control over its data.
Why is the Cloud Preferred to In-House
Hosting? (1 of 2)
Figure 6-5 Comparison of Cloud and In-House Alternatives
Positive
Cloud In-house
Small capital requirements Control of data location
In-depth visibility of security and
Speedy development disaster preparedness
Superior scalability to growing or fluctuating demand Blank
Known cost structure Blank
Possibly best-of-breed security/disaster
preparedness Blank
No obsolescence Blank
Industry-wide economies of scale, hence cheaper Blank
Focus on core business, not infrastructure Blank

• How do organizations use the cloud?
Using the Cloud
• Resource Elasticity
– A car manufacturer runs an ad during the Academy
Awards.
– Doesn’t know if there will be a thousand, a million, 10
million, or even more site visits.
– Cloud vendor will programmatically increase server
capacity.
– The car manufacturer reduces costs substantially.

Pooling Resources
• Economies of scale
– Average cost decreases as size of operation
increases.
– Major cloud vendors operate enormous data centers
(Web farms).

IaaS Services at Falcon Security
• Provides basic hardware in the cloud.
• May acquire servers to load operating systems.
• Considerable technical expertise and management.
• Alternative: Use elastic data storage services.
• SaaS and PaaS provide more added value to Falcon
Security.

• 2027?
The Cloud in 2027 (1 of 2)
• Cloud services faster, more secure, easier to use,
cheaper.
• Fewer organizations own their computing infrastructure.
• More pooling of servers across organizations.
• Overall size of the cloud gets bigger.
• Individuals, small businesses, large organizations obtain
elastic resources at very low cost.
• Cloud fosters new categories of work.
