There are certain services and models working behind the scene
making the cloud computing feasible and accessible to end users.
Following are the working models for cloud computing:
Deployment Models
Service Models
Deployment Models
Deployment models define the type of access to the cloud, i.e., how
the cloud is located? Cloud can have any of the four types of access:
Public, Private, Hybrid, and Community.
CLOUD COMPUTING
Public Cloud
The public cloud allows systems and services to be easily accessible to the general
public. Public cloud may be less secure because of its openness.
Private Cloud
The private cloud allows systems and services to be accessible within an
organization. It is more secured because of its private nature.
Community Cloud
The community cloud allows systems and services to be accessible by a group of
organizations.
Hybrid Cloud
The hybrid cloud is a mixture of public and private cloud, in which the critical
activities are performed using private cloud while the non-critical activities are
performed using public cloud.

Service Models
Cloud computing is based on service models. These are categorized into three basic
service models which are -
Infrastructure-as–a-Service (IaaS)
Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)
Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)
IaaS provides access to fundamental resources such as physical machines, virtual machines, virtual
storage, etc.
Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)
PaaS provides the runtime environment for applications, development and deployment tools, etc.
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)
SaaS model allows to use software applications as a service to end-users.

ADVANTAGES OF CLOUD COMPUTING
Back-up and restore data:- Once the data is stored in the cloud,
it is easier to get back-up and restore that data using the cloud.
Improved collaboration:-Cloud applications improve
collaboration by allowing groups of people to quickly and easily
share information in the cloud via shared storage.
Excellent accessibility:-Cloud allows us to quickly and easily
access store information anywhere, anytime in the whole world,
using an internet connection. An internet cloud infrastructure
increases organization productivity and efficiency by ensuring
that our data is always accessible.
Low maintenance cost:-Cloud computing reduces both hardware
and software maintenance costs for organizations.
