Obstacles for cloud technology

Combining Different Services

The convergence of the three service delivery models - PaaS, IaaS and SaaS seems to be the future of Cloud Computing. By combining SaaS and PaaS delivery models, organisations can build applications efficiently and deploy them quickly to end users. When application developers become increasingly dependent on PaaS tools for building the software, they will ultimately want better control over the underlying infrastructure. Thus, upcoming cloud solutions will focus on satisfying the entire stack of organisational needs.

Obstacles for Cloud Technology-


  • Data security and privacy issues: Moving to the cloud means loss of control over applications and data to a third party provider; thus, issues related to security and privacy are inevitable.
  • Failed adherence to regulatory and compliance measures: Data in the cloud may be stored in a different location for better performance and to avoid localised outages. In such cases, apart from the industry-specific regulations, location-specific compliance measures must also be met.
  • Vendor lock-in: A robust SLA must be established to avoid too much dependence on the cloud service provider.
  • Lack of performance and uptime: Will your applications perform better in the cloud? Is your cloud service provider promising the maximum uptime? These issues must be addressed before moving to the cloud.
  • Network connectivity and bandwidth: Cloud Computing exerts additional pressure on the internet used by the organisation, and bandwidth requirements must be evaluated based on the services used.
  • Dependency on outside agency: The involvement of a third party into the internal operations of an enterprise may sometime cause psychological obstacles for CIOs and IT managers.
  • Knowledge and integration: Cloud migration process must be done through a well-structured procedure which will be explained in detail in the upcoming chapters. With Cloud Computing, the IT department must be prepared to embrace the changes in their roles and responsibilities.
  • • Long-term stability of the service provider: The financial stability of the cloud service provider is an important factor to be considered while choosing one.

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...
