IT infrastructure components
The main components associated with IT
infrastructure are computer hardware
platforms, operating system platforms,
internet platforms and networking and
telecommunication platforms.
Use of virtualization
and cloud computing
The main reason behind
virtualization in cloud
computing is that it offers
better flexibility towards the
organization.
•Helps in allocating the
resources effectively and will
help in performing the
functions within the
organization.
•This provides remote access
and also ensures rapid
scalability.
•Moreover it also offers pay
Dynamic scaling of
application
Dynamic scaling helps in
providing powerful
computing model this helps
user to access the resources
on demand. This also offers
better s scalability towards
the IT infrastructure of the
organization.
Security issues with Cloud in IT
infrastructure

•Denial of service attacks
•Employee negligence
•Data loss
•System vulnerabilities
•Phishing and other malicious
attacks
