Merits of Cloud computing

Cloud computing is rapidly becoming a significant part of the overall IT strategy and more and more organisations are dedicating a substantial part of their IT budget towards this trend. Cloud computing is here to stay and deliver the following benefits.
Mobilising the workforce
Cloud computing allows device-agnostic access to data and from any location. It breaks all kinds of barriers and helps employees to stay connected on the move.
Increased cost control
Cloud computing saves a lot of money by eliminating the need for upfront investment in infrastructure and software. The pay-as-you go model brings down operational costs and allows higher efficiency
Enhanced productivity
Cloud allows flexible provisioning of resources with the least impact on internal operations. Personnel tend to focus better and highly productive results can be obtained.
Reduced impact on the environment
With fewer data centers and shared resources, enterprises moving to the cloud earn the eco-friendly credentials easily.
Better agility

While embracing cloud technology, organisations can scale their resources up and down, avail automatic software updates; expand exponentially with zero upfront investment and without having to deal with miles of wires and heap loads of servers.
Common Applications in the Cloud
The last section provided a clear outline on the various business benefits of cloud computing. However, there exists certain data security and privacy issues while hosting applications on the cloud. Organisations are widely experimenting with different parts of the business that can yield favourable results without falling victim to these concerns.
The most suitable and common applications that can be hosted in the cloud are:
  1. Development and Testing
  2. Big Data Analysis
  3. Websites and CRMs
  4. Storage and Backup
  5. Disaster Recovery

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...

Cloud Computing architecture

Cloud computing architecture refers to all components and sub-components that together form the structure of the cloud computing system. This architecture can be divided into three parts for better understanding – front end, back end and middleware. Each part of the cloud architecture has its own set of functionalities and protocols that work together to deliver on-demand services to user-facing hardware as well as software. In general, the architecture is evolved out of large distributed network applications over the last two decades. Hence it supports any system where resources can be pooled and partitioned as required. The general cloud architecture is capable of running multiple software applications running on multiple virtual hardware in multiple locations to efficiently render on-demand services to the users. The users could be using these software applications from their desktop or laptop or mobile or tablets. Usually, whatever the user is looking at – through t...

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...
