= Cloud computing = | |||
*'''[[w:Cloud computing]]''' ( [[w:fi:Pilvilaskenta]] ) is a major pleasantifier of [[w:information technology|information technology]] systems acquisition and operation hassle and costs. Prices start as low as 15€ / VPS-from-cloud ( [[w:virtual private server|virtual private server]] ) with full [[w:Superuser|root access]]. | |||
:: In cloud computing [[w:abstraction layer|abstraction layer]]s provide ability to move virtual servers around the cloud. It can anticipate breaking down of single physical components and move the services to a sound, functional piece of server hardware in advance to the physcial component breaking up. | |||
:::: In addition to these fault surviving technologies cloud computing is very '''[[w:ecological|ecological]]ly [[w:efficiency|efficient]]''' as several, even tens of [[w:virtual servers|virtual servers]] can live on one physical machine instead of expensive server hardware sitting idly as the load is much lower then the total processing power by a factor of 10x or so. Think of a business buying a big physical server which is then utilized to 10% of it's maximum capacity whereas in cloud computing you can thanks to [[w:virtualization|virtualization]] technologies have much better [[w:utilization rate|utilization rate]]s for actual physical devices.

In the [[w:business model]] using software as a service, users are provided access to application software and databases. The cloud providers manage the infrastructure and platforms on which the applications run. SaaS is sometimes referred to as “on-demand software” and is usually priced on a pay-per-use basis. SaaS providers generally price applications using a subscription fee. ( Wikipedia on [[w:Cloud computing]] ) | |||
