WEBB’S STORES AND CLOUD COMPUTING2Task 1a. A virtualization technology that represents any technique that is used to offer servicesthrough online systems i.e. the internet. In itself, cloud computing is offered on a subscriptionbasis where a service provider (owner of IT resources) leases solutions to a subscriber (user).Example; email services that are offered and accessed using browsers. Now, based on therequirements, Webb Stores can have a variety of choices including Infrastructure as a service(IaaS), Software as a service (SaaS) and Platform as a service. In essence, these are theservice models offered by cloud computing and they can be used for all operations conductedby the company[ CITATION Sou14 \l 2057 ].Now, through cloud computing, Webb’s Stores can have the following benefits:• Mobility of resources as access can be done from any location.• Cost efficiency – most resources are leased which eliminates the implementationand maintenance cost.• Automation of services – employees and other users are able to connect to thecompany’s services without the help of the administrator[ CITATION GFI15 \l 2057 ].b. Amazon Web Services (AWS) offers enterprise unique solutions that are tailored toprovide competent security, privacy and governance requirements. Through these services,Webb Stores can combine its existing physical infrastructure with cloud based resources inorder to expand its organization. At the moment, the company has two data centres in Sydneyand Melbourne, vital components of business operations. Instead of adopting a newinfrastructure, the company can use a hybrid architecture to combine these resources withthose of a service provider in order to serve the new location in Victoria. This outcome can beeasily achieved by setting up a simple networking infrastructure in the new branch and alsoby equipping the staff with devices that can access the internet. From these devices, the staff

WEBB’S STORES AND CLOUD COMPUTING3in the new branches can access the resources owned by the company through online portalsas provided by AWS[ CITATION Ama17 \l 2057 ]. Now, note that this integration would lowerthe cost of setting up the new branch and would facilitate a simple cloud migration, anendeavour that would have minimal risks.c. A hybrid architecture supported by a simple cloud bursting technique would be applied.A hybrid architecture would capitalise on both the benefits of the on-premise equipment suchas security and privacy, with those of the cloud-based solutions i.e. mobility and flexibility.Furthermore, a hybrid solution presents minimal risks as few resources would be migrated tothe service provider. In addition to this, the simple cloud bursting technique would facilitate aholistic outlook in the access of services as two competent and different resource centreswould be used[ CITATION Ngi15 \l 2057 ].Fig: Hybrid architecture using simple cloud burstingTask 2Advantages of using SaaS for office automationSaaS: a popular service model that offers software packages to subscribers through leasedfacilities. In this case, Webb Stores would lease office resources such as office packages,
