Question 1

Cloud Computing Definition NIST SP 800-145 - D1.1

Answer 1

Cloud computing a model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on0demand network access to shared pool of configurable computing resources (network, server, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.

The cloud model is composed of five essential characteristics, three service models and four deployment models.

Question 2

Cloud Computing Roles - Cloud Service Customer - D1.1

Answer 2

Usually us, we are using the cloud or consuming cloud resource.

Question 3

Cloud Computing Roles - Cloud Service Provider - D1.1

Answer 3

Entity that managed cloud services like AWS, Google, Azure

Question 4

Cloud Computing Roles - Broker

Answer 4

Who provides cloud customer cloud resources to have an account with.

Question 5

Cloud Computing Roles - Cloud Carrier

Answer 5

carrier who provides connections to the cloud service provider

Question 6

On-Demaind Self Service

Answer 6

Something that can be consumed by the cloud customer without interaction by the cloud provider.

All you need is a web connection and credit card.

Question 7

Broad network access

Answer 7

computing device, browser, to connect and consume cloud services with signing into account and configure cloud activity.

Question 8

Multitenancy

Answer 8

Is when cloud provider have same equipment for more than one customer to consume.

Question 9

Rapid elasticity and scalability

Answer 9

When you can configure resources on the fly on domain (think auto scaling group with AWS)

Question 10

resource pooling

Answer 10

is when cloud service provider configures pooling the system. this goes hand on hand with multi tenancy. hardware software and networking inside the datacenter is shared.

Question 11

measured service

Answer 11

is when you can only pay for what you use or what you intend to use.

Question 12

ISO

Answer 12

International Standard Organization - pay for what you can apply. Have a few public and academic publications.

Question 13

Building Block technology - virtualization

Answer 13

abstracting applications away from the underlying resource (OS and Hardware)

• often called a VM, instance or Guest.

Requires a hypervisor.

There are two types of Hypervisor.

Type 1 - bare metal hypervisor
Type 2 - OS hypervisor.

If not secured properly, there can be a “guest escape” which other data or hypervisors can be access on same hardware.

Question 15

Building Block Tech - networking

Answer 15

topic 3.1

Question 16

Building Block Tech - database

Answer 16

data stored in a way to make it easily searchable/retrievable

relational

object-oriented

Question 17

Building Block Tech - orchestration

Answer 17

finding ways for functions to work together without creating dependencies.

Question 18

Building Block Tech - containerization

Answer 18

container is a synthetic platform that allows applications to run without installing it on the underlining hardware. Has all bins and lib files for software to run.
