Cloud Interoperability Standards Scalability and Fault Tolerance Fault

Cloud Interoperability & Standards

Scalability and Fault Tolerance • Fault tolerance is the property that enables a system to continue operating properly in the event of the failure of (or one or more faults within) some of its components.

• Cloud ecosystem is a term used to describe the complex system of interdependent components that work together to enable cloud services. • Cloud Business process management (BPM) is a systematic approach to making an organization's workflow more effective, more efficient and more capable of adapting to an ever-changing environment. A business process is an activity or set of activities that will accomplish a specific organizational goal.

Cloud Service Management. • Cloud management means the software and technologies designed for operating and monitoring applications, data and services residing in the cloud. Cloud management tools help ensure cloud computing-based resources are working optimally and properly interacting with users and other services.

Cloud Management Strategies • Cloud management strategies typically involve numerous tasks including performance monitoring (response times, latency, up-time, etc. ), security and compliance auditing and management, and initiating and overseeing disaster recovery and contingency plans. • With cloud computing growing more complex and a wide variety of private, hybrid, and public cloud-based systems and infrastructure already in use, a company’s collection of cloud management tools needs to be just as flexible and scalable as its cloud computing strategy.

Cloud Analytics • Cloud Analytics is term for a set of technological and analytical tools and techniques specifically designed to help clients extract information from massive data. Cloud Analytics is designed to make official statistical data readily categorized and available via the users web browser.

Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) • Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) is the practice of hosting a desktop operating system within a virtual machine (VM) running on a centralized server. VDI is a variation on the client/server computing model, sometimes referred to as server-based computing. The term was coined by VMware Inc.

Operating System Virtualization • Microsoft Virtualization Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), powered by Windows Server 2012, empowers you to deploy remote desktop services architectures that provide employees the flexibility to work anywhere, while allowing them to seamlessly access their corporate windows desktop or application environment running in the datacenter from a range of devices.
