Let’s Know about CLOUD COMPUTING And CASE STUDY of how the company benefited from AMAZON WEB SERVICE(AWS)

What is CLOUD COMPUTING ?

Cloud computing is Service provided platform which is given by some Companies. The company providing the software as service is also providing the infrastructure to run the software. They allow Consume the computing resources such as Virtual OS, RAM, CPU. Cloud computing refers to any kind of hosted service delivered over the “Internet”. It makes the documents available everywhere because the data actually lives on a network of hosted servers that transmit data over the internet.

So here some Cloud Computing Companies name:

.Amazon Web Services
.Microsoft Azure
.Google Cloud Platform
.Adobe
.Red Hat
.Kamatera Cloud
.Linode

How Red Hat Enterprise Linux playing his Role : -

Every cloud is Unique. That means you need an OS that can do anything. And the only ones that can do everything are open source software, like Linux. So start with Red Hat Enterprise Linux. It lets you run cloud-native apps with the control, confidence, and freedom that comes from a consistent foundation across any cloud deployment.

As the most deployed commercial Linux distribution in the public cloud, Red Hat Enterprise Linux is certified to run on hundreds of public cloud and service providers and is built off the native Linux OS containers are supposed to run on. Plus, customers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux gain economic advantages of more than US$1 trillion each year, just because of the OS.

Cloud Computing provides like these types of services :

*Compute as a service*
.EC2
.Lightsail
.Lambda
.AWS Outposts
.Elastic Beanstalk
*Database as a service*
.DynamoDB
.ElastiCache
.Neptune
.Amazon Redshift
.Amazon QLDB
*Containers as a service*
.Elastic Container Registry
.Elastic Container Service
.Elastic Kubernetes Service
*Internet of Things as a service*
.IoT Core
.FreeRTOS
.IoT Analytics
.IoT Device Defender
.IoT Greengrass

So What Did You Understand By “Pay-As-You-Go” ?

Pay-As-You-Go means you pay for only those services which you want to use it. Unlike traditional computing, if you do not use any resources, you do not need to pay. Similar to a water connection or an electricity line, you have a meter and this meter keeps track of your monthly usage. You then pay for that usage at a given rate.

Backups :

Cloud computing is an important answer to the issue of data-loss and recovery on physical hard drives. Most individuals who’ve owned a computer have experienced the stress of losing irreplaceable files. Whether it’s a term paper, family photos or the company payroll, cloud computing offers an easily accessible backup solution to keep data safe.

FOR BACKUPS Hibernation mode is play a vital role in Cloud Computing. Which is same as sleep mode, But in hibernation which data is running inside the RAM will be stored in storage, so if some reason suddenly our pc goes turn off we don’t loose our data.

Now Let’s know about Amazon Web Services(AWS)

Amazon Web Service(AWS) one of the top public cloud service provider platform. This service is used by millions of customers. AWS revenue in the year 2018 was $25.6 billion with a profit of $7.2 billion. The revenue is expected to grow to $33 billion in 2019.AWS offers hundreds of services. Some of these include Virtual Private Cloud, EC2, AWS Data Transfer, Simple Storage Service, DynamoDB, Elastic Compute Cloud, AWS Key Management Service, AmazonCloudWatch, Simple Notification Service, Relational Database Service, Route 53, Simple Queue Service, CloudTrail, and Simple Email Service.

AWS provides 40+ compliance certifications for the global, US, and other countries.

So why Amazon Web Services(AWS) become famous Now ?

Because AWS offers free tier for New AWS customers, and are available for 750 hours(12 months).Amazon helped many start-ups to become successful or many businesses to increase their profits or revenue like Netflix uses around 1000+ server instance on AWS. AWS also helped some start-up that didn’t even had enough funds to buy a single laptop.

AWS launches more than one Zone inside every region because AWS provides massive global infrastructure and give lots of various services that user can take services from anywhere.

Now It’s Turn To Know About How AWS helping In CASE STUDY :

Yulu Uses a Data Lake on AWS to Pedal a Change

Yulu improved service efficiency by 30–35% using its prediction model and AWS data lake.

Micro Mobility Solutions :

Traffic congestion and air pollution are serious issues in India, particularly in megalopolises such as Bengaluru. Yulu’s mission is to address such challenges by providing sustainable and hassle-free micro mobility solutions for commuters travelling short distances. Launched in December 2017, Yulu provides a network of over 10,000 shared vehicles, which include Yulu Move (smart bicycles) and Yulu Miracle (smart light-weight electric scooters), in Bengaluru, Pune, Mumbai, and Bhubaneswar. These vehicles can be easily rented with a user-friendly mobile app on a pay-per-use basis. But smart bicycles and electric scooters are just the beginning — various form factors catering to multiple use cases and infrastructure across India are on the horizon for Yulu’s ambitious management team.

Platform of Choice :

Yulu is a data-driven organization, streaming data from users’ mobile phones and using bikes as Internet of Things (IoT) devices. A team of over 50 operators manage the fleet to ensure bikes are well positioned in high-demand areas — a key activity Yulu calls “Rebalancing.” Profits are derived from a high utilization ratio, meaning how many times a bike is ridden in a day and how many total bikes are in service that day.

The startup selected Amazon Web Services (AWS) to launch its business for several reasons. When recruiting staff, CTO and Cofounder Naveen Dachuri found that in the Indian market more engineers had experience with AWS than any other cloud platform, so the learning curve would be less steep. This would also allow him to launch the application quickly without heavy investments in training time or cost. Yulu did consider Google Cloud but found that AWS’ 10GBps network with dedicated fiber was much better than Google’s offer at the time. The existence of an AWS data center in Mumbai was another compelling factor, as data residency requirements in India were becoming more stringent.

Yulu spent the first six months of operations collecting data to understand usage patterns. It then began constructing its prediction model using Amazon EMR for deeper analysis. “Amazon EMR gives us a seamless integration to move our data from our transaction system to Yulu Cloud — our data lake, which runs on Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3),”

The Yulu app has improved greatly over time, as the IT team can easily deploy updates. They test and push new features in one to two weeks. “Without the AWS Cloud, that would take at least six to seven weeks” .
