Cloud computing is the delivery of on-demand computing resources over the internet on a pay-for-use basis. Examples of public cloud services include Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure. From a customer perspective, the public cloud offers a way to gain needed resources on demand without investing in new hardware or software. The main benefits of cloud computing are:
• Elastic resources — Scale up or down quickly and easily to meet demand
• Metered service so you only pay for what you use
• Self-service — Get resources you need with self-service access
This type of public cloud computing delivers applications over the internet through the browser. The most popular SaaS applications for business can be found in Microsoft’s Office 365; among enterprise applications, Salesforce leads the pack. Many enterprise applications, including CHAMPS, have adopted the SaaS model. The benefits of SaaS: • Quickly start using innovative business applications • The same application is accessed by multiple users • Applications and data are accessible from any connected computer • No data is lost in case computer breaks, as data is stored in the cloud • The service dynamically scales to usage needs
Mobile computing refers to a variety of devices that allow people to access data and information from wherever they are. Mobile computing activity is conducted by wirelessly connecting to and through the Internet or to and through a private network. This connection ties the mobile device to centrally located information and/or application software. The devices for mobile computing include smart phones, tablets and wearable computers. The Benefits of Mobile Computing: • Connectivity: Stay connected at all times • Remote working: Access information needed to work in remote locations • Personalization: You can tailor your mobile computing to your individual needs.
Analytics is the discovery, interpretation, and communication of meaningful patterns and knowledge in data by using mathematics, statistics, predictive modeling and machine-learning techniques. With powerful computers for storing increasing amounts of data and running sophisticated software algorithms, organizations can gain the fast insights needed to make fact-based decisions. Data analysis can uncover correlations and patterns, eliminating the need to rely on guesses, instinct or intuition. By putting the science of numbers, data and analytical discovery to work, organizations can predict, and improve business performance.
(AI) is an area of computer science that emphasizes the creation of intelligent machines that learn from experience, adjust to new inputs and perform human-like tasks. Using technologies like deep learning and natural language processing, computers can be trained to accomplish specific tasks by processing large amounts of data and recognizing patterns in the data. Some of the activities computers with AI are designed for include: • Speech recognition • Learning • Planning • Problem solving • Knowledge • Reasoning
