What is Cloud Architecture? Understanding SaaS, IaaS, Cloud Delivery Models & More



Cloud Computing Summary

Short Summary

The video discusses the process of migrating applications to the cloud computing model, which involves understanding both the front-end and back-end components along with various cloud delivery models such as SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS.

Key Points

  • Start projects locally but must migrate to a production environment.
  • Cloud computing leverages hardware, software, and virtual networking resources.
  • Differentiate between front-end (UI/API) and back-end (services, runtime environments, storage).
  • Cloud delivery models include Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).
  • Cloud can be public, private, or hybrid, each serving different needs.
  • Public cloud is easy to access with shared resources; private cloud requires more investment but offers dedicated resources.
  • Evaluate existing applications to strategize their migration to the cloud.
  • Consider using templates, Terraform, and Kubernetes for organizing cloud architecture.
