Presentation Transcript

  1. Cloud Computing as a Utility The Citadel Sigma Xi

  2. Topics • What is cloud computing? • A peek at origins • Current and potential uses • Some issues • A future look

  3. Cloud Computing • You don’t know where • You don’t care where • You just expect a result • Reasonabledelay is OK • How is CC likewater?

  4. Other Utilities It’s there when you need it. You don’t think about it much. Can’t/don’t want to live without it.

  5. Computing without it… Is like living in 1890...

  6. Origins Eniac Numerical Computer 1946 Contained 17,468 vacuum tubes, 7,200 crystal diodes, 1,500relays, 70,000resistors, 10,000 capacitors and about 5 million hand-soldered joints. It weighed over 30short tons (27 t), was roughly 8 by 3 by 100 feet took up 1800 square feet and consumed 150 kW of power. Shutdown in 1955. (Wikipedia, “ENIAC”)

  7. Cousins IBM z9 circa 2005 Mainframe Built to run reliably for decades Transaction processing Modern virtualized servers are mainframe computers IBM Mainframe circa 1964

  8. Cousins Titan circa 2011 Titan Supercomputer 200 cabinets 4,352 square feet Draws 480 V/cabinet Peak 8.2MW power Total 299,008 processor cores, Total 693.6TiB of CPU and GPU RAM Blazing fast interconnect Hearing protection required in server room (fan noise) Wikipedia, “Titan_(supercomputer)

  9. Economics of (Super) Computing -Kathy Yellick, NERSC, 2010

  10. Want to See a Magic Trick?

  11. A Rabbit…Really?! really_big_data_listx,y; for i is 1 to n do y[i] = f(x[i]); end; really_big_data_listx,y; y = map(f, x); Another flavor, called “MapReduce” made famous

  12. Potential Uses

  13. Current Uses

  14. Enablers • Low-cost commodity computing & information technology • Reduced operational cost (energy/people)

  15. What is that?

  16. Social Issues • Aggregation of Information • Abuse of trust • Security (Information) • Privacy • Intellectual Property • Control • Freedom to choose

  17. Energy Issues • In 2011, and average Google search used 0.3 watt-hrs of electricity • Google data centers use 260 MW (2011) worldwide annually • enough to power 200,000 homes in Richmond, VA or Irvine, CA • Only 2kWh per person

  18. Our Own “Doodoo” Problem • We create 2.5 exabytes (1018) of data every day • We can’t process it fast enough • We can’t move it fast enough Digitally, we are drowning in data we cannot use.

  19. My vision for Cloud Computing… • High-fidelity results
