- Combination of Public and Private cloud - Users can connect cloud-based resources to on-premises infrastructure - Users can integrate cloud-based resources with legacy IT application

Learning Objectives

- Summarize the benefits of AWS - Describe differences between on-demand delivery and cloud deployments -Summarize the pay-as-go pricing model

What is Increase speed and agility?

- The flexibility of cloud computing makes it easier for you to develop and deploy applications - And enables users access to more resources with a few clicks

What is Go Global in minutes?

- The global footprint of the AWS cloud enables users to deploy applications to customers around the world quickly.

What are the benefits of Cloud Computing?

- Trade upfront expense for variable expense - Stop spending money to run and maintain data centers - Stop guessing capacity - Benefit from massive economies of scale - Increase speed and agility - Go global in minutes

- Upfront expense refers to the process of investing in data centers, physical servers, and other resources before using them - Variable expense refers to the pay-as-you-use model.

What is the On-Premises Deployment model? (Private Cloud)

- Users can deploy resources by virtualization and management tools - Users can increase resource utilization by using application management and virtualization technologies

What is the Cloud-Based Deployment model? (Public Cloud)

- Users will run all parts of the application in the cloud - Migrate existing applications to the cloud - Design and build new applications in the cloud

What is Stop Guessing Capacity?
