Beautiful cloud computing is not perfect

Over time, the DOE has tested the ability of several cloud vendors to run special applications. One official said the test results from the first Energy Department's Magellan Cloud computing platform showed that commercially available commercial cloud services were susceptible to the use of the message-passing Interface (MPI), such as weather, for computing applications. The Messaging Interface (MPI), which is sometimes convenient for communicating synchronously between parallel processes, can also facilitate communication mechanisms and ensure that the program retains the same effect in its particular domain. Also, it is easy to have extensive control in a parallel environment. Yes...

Porticor proposes cloud encryption solutions to simplify data encryption

Data is generally protected by PKI, where data is encrypted, it creates a public key, theoretically decrypted by the private key held by the authorized person. However, this type of data protection extended to the cloud is complex. Migrating to the cloud poses a new set of complex security issues for the IT team due to the lack of direct control over data security. In addition, cloud vendors believe that data security is a common responsibility for service providers to ensure physical security, and that users must ensure their own servers and data. It is speculated that encryption and key management require a strategy, and that the key needs to be stored outside the cloud rather than inside ...

How to obtain million TPS at 1.68 USD/h cost

The cloud infrastructure, such as Amazon EC2, has proven its value worldwide, and its ease of scaling, out-of-the-way, on-time billing, and so on, has freed developer creativity more thoroughly, but don't overlook the virtualized environment that was once considered a performance killer for applications and databases. Despite the performance aspect, cloud vendors have been looking for ways to improve, but as users of us, our own performance optimization tools are also essential. On the entity server, Aerospike has shown the peak of the million TPS, and now we are dedicated to improving the performance of cloud applications ...

Vendor lock-in is a common problem with many cloud deployments

China IDC Circle July 16 reported: Manufacturers lock is a common problem of many cloud deployment. We all know a historic it challenge: The more a company uses a specific vendor's product or service, the higher its reliance on the vendor and its product services, and the more difficult it is for companies to change vendors. Even when you renew a contract with an existing vendor, this can lead to a lack of initiative in the negotiation process. Manufacturers know that the cost of enterprise change manufacturers is very high, the difficulty is very good, so both take its light, enterprises will inevitably accept the requirements of manufacturers price increases. Lower utilization rate ...

Is the cloud vendor's disaster recovery capability sufficient to support critical applications?

When disaster strikes, you don't want to leave a regret.     Plan ahead and make sure your cloud provider has sufficient, out-of-the-box Dr Plans-especially for mission-critical applications. It is critical to assess whether the DR mechanism meets your mission-critical workload requirements by reviewing the cloud vendor's disaster recovery capabilities. The last thing you need to do is to crash the most important workload. Every public cloud vendor has a different protocol. For example, Microsoft Azure introduces a redundant virtual machine instance across multiple barrier points, which is a set of architectures or different azure ...

Application Delivery Controller To enable IT specialists to implement cloud storage capabilities

"IT168 applications" when suddenly need to join new applications, IT staff often scrambling to optimize resources, balance load, add hardware.   Now they have a new choice-cloud computing. This public cloud that is ready to respond to burst applications is now a reality, and sometimes we call it "cloud eruption (Cloud bursting)." In such an environment, organizations only have to pay for the resources they use, thus avoiding the procurement of additional infrastructure.   But as most applications are anchored to the internal infrastructure, how do we implement them? Right...

How does an enterprise assess cloud service security?

As the popularity of cloud services increases, companies must work with it to decide what can be put on the cloud and how to ensure other security. Cloud computing has gained more and more attention from enterprises.    Does it mean that cloud services are safe enough for businesses?

Cloud security issues and precautionary measures inventory

The first problem that cloud security faces is the technology and management problems in the virtualized environment. Traditional protection mechanism based on physical security boundary is difficult to effectively protect user application and information security based on shared virtualization environment. In addition, the cloud computing system is so large, and mainly through the virtual machine to calculate, in the event of failure, how to quickly locate the problem is also a major challenge. Secondly, it is the problem that the service model of cloud computing separates the ownership, management and right of use of the resources. Cloud computing, a new service model, separates the ownership, management, and use of resources.

Single mixed cloud computing in modern economy

scalability, availability, and accessibility will always be the backbone of cloud computing.   But where does the next cost-efficiency boost come from? The answer is not an entirely new concept, but rather the integration of two existing cloud technologies, such as public and private, to create the next great innovation: a hybrid cloud environment with proprietary patches. Hybrid cloud enables companies to collaborate on strategies for public and private infrastructure, rather than isolating them. Private patching connects these different cloud environments without expensive public IP lines, offering many benefits to your business, not just ...

Cloud computing is a complex pricing

In theory, cloud computing provides a fairly simple pattern to consume computing and storage resources. The user needs the capacity, the supplier provides the capacity, the user pays the expense. Users should be able to increase and reduce resources according to their needs and only pay for the capacity they use. However, according to the survey of the 451 Institute, the cloud computing pricing model is complex, making it difficult for consumers to make purchase decisions, and comparing suppliers into a challenge. The market has a variety of pricing models, as well as complex terminology, which makes the pricing of cloud computing very unclear. The report says: "Cloud computing once promised simply based on ...

Open Cloud: Just a popular word or a sign of the future of infrastructure

"Openness" is also a new term in the field of technology. It may sound like "open" or "closed", but some technical experts believe that openness is simply a popular word, and that there is not much real value to customers. In this article, we will explore the differences between marketing terminology and reality in the open cloud domain. To arrive at a precise conclusion, we first need to define the term exactly. We first need to understand the meaning of "open". Open Cloud is not the same thing as open source cloud. Open source refers to a software licensing model. In fact, the free feature of open source software is not the customer's most concern ...
