Terms about cloud computing

The terms about cloud computing are as follows:

1. Cloud computing

Cloud computing is a pay-per-use model that provides available , convenient, on-demand network access, into a configurable shared pool of computing resources (resources include networks, servers, storage, application software, services), these resources can be quickly provided, requiring only a small amount of management work. or minimal interaction with service providers.

2. Grid computing

Grid computing is a type of distributed computing and a computer science. It studies how to divide a problem that requires huge computing power into many small parts, then assign these parts to many computers for processing, and finally combine these calculation results to obtain the final result.

3. Distributed computing

Distributed computing is a newly proposed computing method. The so-called distributed computing is when two or more software share information with each other. These software can run on the same computer or on multiple computers connected through a network.

4. Fog computing

Fog computing is a distributed computing infrastructure for the Internet of Things that can extend computing power and data analysis applications to the "edge" of the network. It enables Customers are able to analyze and manage data locally, gaining instant insights through connections. In this model, data, (data) processing and applications are concentrated in devices at the edge of the network, rather than being kept almost entirely in the cloud.
