Cloud Computing

  Amazon Web Services (AWS) Amazon Web Services (AWS)  is the largest cloud computing platform, offering 200+ universally featured resources, from infrastructure to machine learning. These combinable systems provide maximum usability and are designed expressly for the optimization of your application’s performance through content delivery features, data storage, and more. With AWS, you pay only for the exact amount of assistance you require, resulting in lower capital commitment and enhanced time-to-value without compromising productivity.   1) Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) EC2 is a cloud platform provided by Amazon that offers secure, and resizable compute capacity. Its purpose is to enable easy access and usability to developers for web-scale cloud computing, while allowing for total control of your compute resources. Deploy applications rapidly without the need for investing in hardware upfront; all the while able to launch virtual servers as-needed an...

 Physical To Virtual Machine: Physical to virtual (P2V), also called hardware virtualization, refers to the migration of physical machines to virtual machines ( VMs ). Developers using a P2V approach transfer their physical environment into a digital one. By doing this, they use less hardware and physical space, and reap the benefits of VMs, including more flexibility because VMs can run on multiple platforms. P2V is commonly used for  server virtualization . It is also popular as a way for Mac users to run Windows applications. Data migrated in P2V includes an operating system (OS), applications, programs and data from a computer's main hard drive. It's moved to a VM or a disk  partition . Tools such as Micro Focus' PlateSpin> Migrate and Microsoft's vContinuum save the data gathered from the physical machine as an image, which a  hypervisor  reinstalls on a VM. The result is a VM with the same data, applications and system configurations as the physical...

Virtual to Virtual Migration: V2V migration is called virtual to virtual migration, which refers to migrate operating systems (OS), applications and data from a virtual machine (VM) or disk partition to another virtual machine or disk partition. Performing V2V migration contributes to move VM to another virtual platform in a short time without installing or configuring any applications. For example, you can convert Hyper-V to VMware format. It saves time, reduces workloads and also minimizes the cost for hardware and storage. If you want to migrate a virtual machine to another VMware platform directly, you can utilize VMware Converter. Meanwhile, if you simply want to migrate a virtual machine to the same or a different host, this article also describes effective methods of virtual machine migration. Virtual to Virtual Migration Screenshot:   Summary: In this article, I have introduced V2V migration and specific procedures of converting Hyper-V to VMware by usi...

  MY FIRST VIRTUAL MACHINE: A  Virtual Machine  (VM) is a compute resource that uses software instead of a physical computer to run programs and deploy apps. One or more virtual “guest” machines run on a physical “host” machine.  Each virtual machine runs its own operating system and functions separately from the other VMs, even when they are all running on the same host. This means that, for example, a virtual MacOS virtual machine can run on a physical PC.  Virtual machine technology is used for many use cases across on-premises and cloud environments. More recently,  public cloud  services are using virtual machines to provide virtual application resources to multiple users at once, for even more cost efficient and flexible compute. Scree...

 Cloud Computing: Moving to the cloud. Running in the cloud. Stored in the cloud. Accessed from the cloud: these days is seems like everything is happening “in the cloud”. But what exactly is this nebulous concept? The short answer is that it's somewhere at the other end of your internet connection – a place where you can access apps and services, and where your data can be stored securely. The cloud is a big deal for three reasons: It doesn't need any effort on your part to maintain or manage it. It's effectively infinite in size, so you don't need to worry about it running out of capacity. You can access cloud-based applications and services from anywhere – all you need is a device with an internet connection. This is important because there's a shift going on from office-based work to working on the move. This shift is reflected in computer hardware sales: In 2015 about 270 million desktop and laptop computers will be sold, compared to 325 million tab...
