Cloud challenges

Once the decision to embrace the cloud has been taken, organisations must chart out a detailed plan that marks their journey to the cloud. Listed below are the top challenges battled in a cloud environment by the cloud vendor, client as well as the end user.

  • Keeping up with security requirements: Security tops the list of challenges when it comes to Cloud Computing as organisations lose their direct control over data. A cloud vendor must be aware of all security measures to be implemented while dealing with critical data and have them in place.
  • Obtaining the right knowledge and expertise:With the advent of Cloud Computing, the role of the IT department has significantly changed and so has their need for knowledge and skills. Organisations must equip themselves with the required resources as well as the tools to implement robust cloud applications.
  •  Choosing the right vendor: Partnering with the right vendor is the key to success in the cloud. Organisations must follow a fail-safe mechanism in evaluating potential cloud vendors and ensure that they meet all security and privacy standards.
  • Data interoperability and portability: Organisations expand with time and their needs change rapidly. Therefore, additional caution must be practised to avoid choosing a platform/technology/provider that makes the organisation too dependent on them.
  • Budgeting difficulties while moving to the cloud: The very nature of cloud is that it is scalable and is delivered on demand. This, in turn, may cause difficulties while drawing IT budgets for the entire organisation. The fluctuating cost of cloud services is a very common challenge for small as well as medium-sized organisations.

Complexities while migrating to the cloud vary from one organisation to the other. However, partnering with a reliable cloud service provider and planning ahead will increase the chances for optimised performance through the cloud.

TCP/IP protocol

TCP (Transmission Control Protocol):- TCP (Transmission Control  Protocol ) is a standard that defines how to establish and maintain a network conversation via which  application programs  can exchange data. TCP works with the Internet Protocol ( IP ), which defines how computers send  packet s of  data  to each other. Together, TCP and IP are the basic rules defining the Internet. TCP is defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force ( IETF ) in the Request for Comment ( RFC ) standards document number 793. TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, which means a connection is established and maintained until the application programs at each end have finished exchanging messages. It determines how to break application data into packets that  networks  can deliver, sends packets to and accepts packets from the network layer, manages  flow contro l ,  and—because it is meant to provide error-free data transmi...

What is technical analysis?

 Technical Analysis (also abbreviated as TA) is a popular technique that allows you to do just that. It not only helps you develop a point of view on a particular stock or index but also helps you define the trade keeping in mind the entry, exit and risk perspective.  Like all research techniques, Technical Analysis also comes with its own attributes, some of which can be highly complex. However, technology makes it easy to understand. Technical Analysis is a research technique to identify trading opportunities in market based on the actions of market participants. The actions of market participants can be visualized by means of a stock chart. Over time, patterns are formed within these charts and each pattern conveys a certain message. The job of a technical analyst is to identify these patterns and develop a point of view. Like any research technique, technical analysis stands on a bunch of assumptions. As a practitioner of technical analysis, you need to trade the markets k...

connection oriented

connection-oriented:- connection-oriented  describes a means of transmitting data in which the devices at the end points use a preliminary  protocol  to establish an end-to-end connection before any data is sent. Connection-oriented protocol service is sometimes called a "reliable" network service, because it guarantees that data will arrive in the proper sequence. Transmission Control Protocol ( TCP ) is a connection-oriented protocol. For connection-oriented communications, each end point must be able to transmit so that it can communicate. The alternative to connection-oriented transmission is the  connection-less  approach, in which data is sent from one end point to another without prior arrangement. Connection-less protocols are usually described as  stateless  because the end points have no protocol-defined way to remember where they are in a "conversation" of message exchanges. Because they can keep track of a conversation, connection-or...
