 CLOUD SERVICE MODELS

There are three sorts of cloud models: IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), and SaaS (Software as a Service) (Software as Service). Each cloud model has its own set of advantages that may be tailored to the demands of diverse enterprises. Choosing amongst them necessitates a grasp of various cloud models, as well as an evaluation of your needs and a comprehension of how the selected model can offer your planned set of operations.


Infrastructure as a Service

IaaS, or Infrastructure as a Service, is cloud-based virtual provisioning of computing resources. A cloud provider may supply you with a full variety of computing infrastructures, including s servers, and networking gear, as well as maintenance and support. Businesses may choose the c resources they demand without having to deploy hardware on their premises. Some of the main cloud service providers are Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Compute Engine. 

This service provides IT infrastructures such as servers, networking, processing, storage, virtual machine, and other resources. We can access these resources using a pay-as-per-use model. It contains SSN service(Server, Storage, and Network). Iaas is used by system Administrators.

Key features of laaS

  • Instead of purchasing hardware completely, users pay for laaS on demand.
  • Infrastructure is scalable depending on processing and storage needs. Saves enterprises the costs of buying and maintaining their hardware.
  • Because data is on the cloud, there can be no single point of failure.
  • Enables the virtualization of administrative tasks, freeing up time for other work. 

Benefits of laaS

 Enhanced Scalability: Using an IaaS cloud architecture eliminates the need to deploy on-premise
hardware, lowering expenses.

Minimize Costs: IaaS, being the most adaptable cloud computing paradigm, enables scale computing resources up or down based on demand. 

Simple Deployment: IaaS allows you to quickly install servers, processing, storage, and networking
to get it up and running.


Platform as a Service

PaaS, or Platform as a Service, is simply a cloud basis where you can create, test, and organize various apps for your organization. Implementing PaaS streamlines the company's software development process. Paas's virtual runtime environment provides a conducive environment for creating and testing applications. The full set of resources available in the form of servers, storage, and networking can be managed by the organization or a platform provider. PaaS services such as Google App Engine and AWS Elastic Beanstalk are common examples. PaaS is also subscription-based, giving you various pricing options based on your business's needs.
This service provides a runtime environment and Encapsulation. It allows programmers to create, test, run and deploy web applications. We can manage data and application resources. It is used by developers.
 

Key Feature of PAAS

  • PaaS is a platform that includes tools for testing, developing, and hosting applications all in the same environment.
  •  Allows enterprises to focus on development rather than underlying infrastructure.
  • Security, operating systems, server software, and backups are all managed by providers.
  • Allows for collaborative work even when teams operate remotely.


Benefits of PaaS

Minimal Development Time: PaaS decreases development time since the vendor supplies all computing resources such as server-side components, which streamlines the process and improves the development team's focus.

 Multiple Programming Language Support: PaaS supports many programming languages, which a software development business may use to create apps for various projects. 

Enhanced Collaboration: With PaaS, your company may benefit from improved cooperation, which will aid in the integration of your team members who are distributed across many locations.


Software as a Service

SaaS, or Software as a Service, is a business model that provides instant access to cloud-based online applications. The vendor is in charge of the complete computer stack, which may be accessed via a web browser. These programs are hosted in the cloud and may be accessed via a paid licensed subscription or for free with limited access. SaaS does not necessitate any installs or downloads to your current computer infrastructure. This eliminates the need to install apps on each of your PCs, with the vendor handling maintenance and support. SaaS examples include Google G Suite, Microsoft Office 365, Dropbox, and many others.
Using  Saas, we can access software over the internet without the need of any platform. In this service, we don’t need the work of H/W and O/S, we have to access the services on a web browser or application.

Key features of SaaS

  • Software and apps are delivered to consumers via a subscription model by SaaS companies. SaaS providers.
  • Users are not required to manage, install, or upgrade software; this is handled by Data that is secure in the cloud; failure of equipment does not result in data loss.
  • Resource use may be scaled based on service requirements.
  • Applications may be accessed from practically any internet-connected device, anywhere around the globe.

Benefits of SaaS

Affordable: SaaS is cost-effective because it reduces the costs associated with purchasing, installing, maintaining, and upgrading computer hardware.

Accessibility from Anywhere: With SaaS, you may access the services from anywhere using any device, including smartphones, removing the limits imposed by on-premises software.

Ready to Use: You may rapidly set up SaaS services so that they are ready to use. You only need to sign up for the service to have access to quick and powerful computing resources.

Suppose that a data warehouse for Big-University consists of the following four dimensions: student, course, semester, and instructor, and two measures count and avg_grade. When at the lowest conceptual level (e.g., for a given student, course, semester, and instructor combination), the avg_grade measure stores the actual course grade of the student. At higher conceptual levels, avg_grade stores the average grade for the given combination. a) Draw a snowflake schema diagram for the data warehouse. b) Starting with the base cuboid [student, course, semester, instructor], what specific OLAP operations (e.g., roll-up from semester to year) should one perform in order to list the average grade of CS courses for each BigUniversity student. c) If each dimension has five levels (including all), such as “student < major < status < university < all”, how many cuboids will this cube contain (including the base and apex cuboids)?

Suppose that a data warehouse consists of the four dimensions; date, spectator, location, and game, and the two measures, count and charge, where charge is the fee that a spectator pays when watching a game on a given date. Spectators may be students, adults, or seniors, with each category having its own charge rate. a) Draw a star schema diagram for the data b) Starting with the base cuboid [date; spectator; location; game], what specific OLAP operations should perform in order to list the total charge paid by student spectators at GM Place in 2004?
