 CLOUD COMPUTING ARCHITECTURE

  • The cloud infrastructure is closely related to its architecture & comprises many cloud components which are loosely connected. The broad divisions of cloud architecture are:

  1. Front-end
  2.  Back-end

  • It is the responsibility of the back end to provide the security of data for cloud users along with the traffic control mechanism. The server also provides the middleware which helps to connect devices & communicate with each other.
  • Businesses used cloud infrastructures to work with these applications. Unlike subscription-based models of pricing, the payment structure of the cloud enables the user to subscribe to vendor services & cloud infrastructures are paid on a 'pay-per-use basis.

  • The cloud technology architecture also consists of front-end platforms called the cloud client which comprises servers, thin & fat clients, tablets & mobile devices. The interaction is done through middleware or via a web browser or virtual sessions. According to Jason Bloomberg of ZapThink, the cloud-oriented architecture can essentially be the building block of IoT (Internet of Things) in which anything can be connected to the Internet. Cloud architecture is a combination of both services-oriented architecture & event-driven architecture. So, cloud architecture encompasses all elements of the cloud environment.

What are different steps used in JDBC? Write down a small program showing all steps.

-
 T he fundamental steps involved in the process of connecting to a database and executing a query consist of the following: Import JDBC packages. Load and register the JDBC driver. Open a connection to the database. Create a statement object to perform a query. Execute the statement object and return a query resultset. Process the resultset. Close the resultset and statement objects. Close the connection. These steps are described in detail in the sections that follow. 1. Import JDBC Packages This is for making the JDBC API classes immediately available to the application program. The following import statement should be included in the program irrespective of the JDBC driver being used: import java.sql.*; Additionally, depending on the features being used, Oracle-supplied JDBC packages might need to be imported. For example, the following packages might need to be imported while using the Oracle extensions to JDBC such as using advanced data types such as BLOB, and so on. import o...

Discuss classification or taxonomy of virtualization at different levels.

Taxonomy of virtualization Virtualization is mainly used to emulate the execution environment, storage, and networks. The execution environment is classified into two: – Process-level – implemented on top of an existing operating system.  – System-level – implemented directly on hardware and does not or minimum requirement of the existing operating system. OR,  Virtualization covers a wide range of emulation techniques that are applied to different areas of computing. A classification of these techniques helps us better understand their characteristics and use  V irtualization is mainly used to emulate  ● Execution Environments: To provide support for the execution of the programs eg. OS, and Application.  ○ Process Level: Implemented on top of an existing OS that has full control of the hardware  ○ System Level: Implemented directly on Hardware and do not require support from existing OS.  ● Storage: Storage vi...

Pure Versus Partial EC

Image
Pure Versus Partial EC EC takes several forms depending on the degree of digitization (the transformation from physical to digital). Companies utilizing pure EC conduct all of their business online. Businesses utilizing partial EC conduct a portion of their business online and a portion of their business off-line OR,    Pure E-electronic commerce refers to a situation where a business transacts its business activities PURELY online. that is, the goods or services sold do not have any physical presence. take a business that sells software, for example, you just pay and download, or one that sells music files online. Partial E-Commerce on the other hand refers to a slightly opposite situation where a business has an online presence, but still has a physical location for the goods and services it sells. For example, Amazon, Walmart, and any other you can think of. you buy the goods online but receive them physically.                   ...
