  9. Cloud Computing • A definition refers to any situation in which computing is done in a remote location (out in the clouds), rather than on your desktop or portable device. • You tap into that computing power over an Internet connection. "The cloud is a smart, complex, powerful computing system in the sky that people can just plug into." Web browser pioneer Marc Andreessen Source: http://www.businessweek.com

  10. Cloud Structure Cloud Benefits: • Cloud = Less Investment (not own data center, hardware; use outside provider of servers, storage, and bandwidth) • Cloud = Scale (tens of thousands of server computers) • Cloud = Flexible and Efficiency Source: http://news.cnet.com

  11. Cloud Computing Types

  12. Cloud Operating Systems • Work completely online – personally OR collaboratively • Provide basic OS functionality • Centrally manage OS “images” • Public or Private cloud services • Enable lower cost computing elements (lower cost netbooks) • Various Fee and free offerings

  13. Intel My WiFi Technology – Sync, Share, Show • Sync Wi-Fi enabled devlices like media players or digital cameras • Share content among your Wi-Fi devices anywhere • Show content from one Wi-Fi enabled device on another Wi-Fi device. Ex. Show a streaming video from the Internet on an HDTV • Print directly to a Wi-Fi enabled printer • My WiFi technology lets your Wi-Fi enabled CE devices connect directly and securely to your notebook without having to go through a Wi-Fi network access point. Your Intel Centrino 2 processor technology based notebook is your own portable Wi-Fi network. • Intel My WiFi technology inherits the same mature security capabilities of conventional Wi-Fi (i.e. WPA, WPA2, etc) • Intel WiFi Link 5100 or Intel Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300 required – Windows Vista & Win 7

  24. What is a “Multi User” OS Environment? • Hardware/Software stack that runs applications on a remote server, not on a local desktop. • Key strokes and mouse click are sent over network to the server to process and give back the result…… thus sometimes referred to as “screen-casting” • Clients can be a low powered PC or a Thin client device. • Thin Clients typically don’t have HDD, FDD, CDROMS, Cooling Fans. Most have Low Processing Power.

  25. What is a Thin Client? How does it work? • Small User device about 1/3 Size Of PC. • Can Support Windows CE, XP Embedded, Thin OS’s (i.e. ThinConnect) and Linux Environments. • Some are configured with NO local OS. • Can Be Configured On As Low As 16Mb Of RAM. • Same Feel As Working On a Windows Based OS – basic Windows fidelity. • Remote Computation….Server Takes Care Of All The Processing. • Works On either Citrix`s ICA (Independent Computing Architecture), Sun’s ALP (Appliance Link Protocol) Or Microsoft's RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) Protocols (Both Require Only 20Kbps Speed Over Network To Work). • User Logs Onto The Server Via Web Portal And A Familiar Windows Base Environment is Replicated to Users Screens With Access To Application, Internet, Mail, Drives, Printers, Etc.

  26. Thin Clients – General Overview • Sun Microsystems – SunRay 2 (All based on Sun Ray OS) Range from $349.00 to $799.00 depending on configuration • HP 5000 Series– (OS Choice: HP ThinConnect, ThinPro, Xpe or CE6) Range from $249.00 to $600.00 depending on configuration • Wyse S, V, R, G series (OS Choice: Linux, Xpe, CE6, Zero – WSM) Range from $250.00 to $1200.00
