Task 1:
Question 1: Cloud architectures apply to the following service?
Active Directory and reasons for deploying it
Active directory should apply the cloud architecture for Infrastructure as a Service or
IaaS (Bakshi, 2017). The primary reason of using the Infrastructure as the service to be the
appropriate cloud architecture for active directory for MicroServices architecture as it would
visible to utilise the Amazon Web Services for deploying the active directory into the cloud,
which itself is an Infrastructure developed by Amazon Inc. for providing services to other
organisations.
Web servers and reasons for deploying it
The web application hosting cloud architecture would be suitable for the web server
for its application. The primary reason that it would be e rational decision as cloud web
servers would be considered as a virtual server it would be running throughout the computing
environment. The hosting of the cloud computing platform would be delivered with the help
of the internet so that it can be accessed remotely which is possible by the cloud architecture
for web application hosting. With this, the software that is required to run can be
independently functioning on individual units.
Public customers’ application and reasons for deploying it
For any application to the public and the customers utilising the cloud architectures, it
is applicable that the cloud architecture of software as a service or SaaS is included. This is
because this software-as-a-service helps a user to connect to the available products access the
cloud as a private storage solution based on subscriptions. An individual user can ask for
using the cloud services as a storage solution with the help of a subscription generated as a
