CLOUD COMPUTING
Introduction
The report is used here for the description of the basic concepts and characteristics
describing the technicalities used in cloud computing. For the description of the cloud
computing implementation the descriptions of the WePayU organization has been done here.
The description has been assisted with the help of description of a pilot project to be
developed for the organization.
The organization is looking to implement their solution on cloud and hence the
description of the cloud implementation of the organization has been described here in this
report. The physical designs and the logical designs for the cloud system to be developed for
the organization has also been described in the report.
Organization Overview
WePAyU is an application which acts as payment gateway for a various type of
organizations and the application provides huge cashback and rewards to their clients. The
organization is a start-up company who is looking to set up their application and also increase
their business on global basis. In addition to this, the organization is looking to take their
solutions online on the cloud level. The cloud solutions that are being taken into
considerations for the organization is hybrid and hence the cloud providers providing the
hybrid cloud services are being taken into considerations by the organization.
Solution Requirements Considerations
The organization is looking to develop the cloud system of an already existing. The
solution requirements to be taken into considerations are:
Longevity: The organization would be contacting cloud providers who would be providing
them with continuous services for around 5-10 years. In addition to this, the package obtained

CLOUD COMPUTING
from the cloud provider should be providing the organization with automatic updates and
automatic bug fixes.
Diversity of Support: The cloud provider should be having the basic information about the
working of the system that has been developed by the WePayU organization already.
Cost: The cost of the maintenance and up front implementations are to be discussed
accordingly by the WePayU Company.
Existing Data: The Existing data and the mobile application made available by the company
to their clients should be integrated into the cloud solution for the company.
Ease of Use: The developed system should be easy to use and existing staffs and customers
of the organization should not be facing any type of difficulties in performing the tasks.
Pilot Project Definition
Pilot research and testing are recurrently executed before large-scale computable
research, with an endeavour to elude time and capital being utilized on an inefficiently
premeditated project. A pilot study is usually executed on individuals of the appropriate
population.
A pilot analysis is often utilized to test the scheme of the full-scale research, which
then can be attuned. It is a hypothetically cherished intuition and, should whatsoever be
absent in the pilot analysis, it can be associated to the full-scale lucrative and valuable
research to enhance the probabilities of a clear result.
Solution Requirements
The solution required for the WePayU organization is hybrid cloud architecture that
would be helpful for them in taking their system on to a cloud. The hybrid solution would be

helpful in providing their executive sector with the private cloud and their client sectors with
the public cloud that would be helpful in maintaining their systems efficiently.
Service Operation Requirements
The main operations of the WePayU organization are related to the payment sectors.
Hence, the cloud solution should be having sufficient scope to manage the payment gateways
of the organization.
Management and Support Requirements
The management and Support section of the organization would be performing
process on the public sectors of the cloud.
Conceptual Design
The design framework aspired to deploy and host applications and loads of work and
convey services in the delivery model of Cloud assisted by HP Helion Open Stack. The

5
CLOUD COMPUTING
procedure incorporates the migration of cloud, aggregation of resources and consolidation
and comprises four principal components:
• Compute and Networking
• Migration
• Security
• Storage
There would be the categorization and classification of all the components into
diversified arenas with the purpose of rendering services to diversified elevations and levels
of workload and service.
Integration of applications is always encountered by diversified challenges. With the
purpose of connecting to the isolated applications that are dwelling and dispersing in the
cloud and associating the isolated applications that are available in the data base of the
company, enormous challenges are encountered. Apart from associating systems with
diversified data frameworks, there is navigation of Cloud across security gates and firewalls.
A platform of cloud that is graded on the basis of the enterprise is rendered with
flexibility, elasticity, openness and additional arena of IP by the HP Helion Open Stack.
While integration of application identifies and indicates inefficiency of processing,
such as multiple illustrations of information conservation and system management, it is vital
for the brand new aspect of mobile technology that is about to alter the way the personnel of
Human Resources convey their payroll dispensation purposes with app-centric cloud replicas.
Wepayu Payroll Data Hub:
Thousands of companies and concerns productized by vendors dealing with the
software as the procedure of interchanging information between systems which are matured,

6
CLOUD COMPUTING
have accomplished Master Data Management (MDM), and brand new methodologies
appeared to handle integration of data.
Common Integration and Development Platform (CIDP):
Structuring conventional fields in the mainstream systems is a fragile, time consuming
and expensive implementation. There must be a malleable ambience which will facilitate the
construction of conventional fields and a unpretentious database framework that will be
equipped with the potentials which will possess the capabilities of providing reports on the
fields and thereby evaluating the same.
HR Cloud Solutions Implementation of the CIDP Mode:
• Adding on products of third party, specifically the payrolls which are native and local in a
broader aspect, and a platform of database for the purpose of plugging in assembly of
application.
• State-of-the-art Platform/Infrastructure-as-a-Service solutions with an inbuilt integration
capability.
• Solutions of HR Cloud HCM Mashup Builder structural framework items for development
of custom.
Fully Integrated Component Assembly (FICA)
The Common Integration and Development Platform (CIDP) and Fully Integrated
Component Assembly (FICA) are the only integrated application frameworks that is
appropriate for the upcoming peers of business applications, incorporating computing of
mobile. Both frameworks put on the philosophy put forward by MDM in regards to a
centralized Structural framework of Record and solitary Version and Form of the Truth.

CLOUD COMPUTING
The object turns out to be the System of Records. All other constituents encourage and
educate a person to take integral participation in the communal Person object. From the
perspective point of view of computation of mobile, the exceptionality associated with the
FICA methodology is the capability to draw and incorporate stuffs into the application of
iPad. The stuffs are completely embedded with ONE database and effective operation of
mobile application is not reliant on amalgamation of frameworks with multiple databases.
Physical Design
Project concentrated on the incorporation of crucial framework constituents between
their public cloud and the private cloud provider, thereby integrating them and the relocation
of an unpretentious line of application of business to the public cloud. Wepayu opted for a
simplified application comprising two-tier to relocate to the public cloud and aspires to
provide validation of the essential structural framework and thereby integrating and
amalgamating the same with their public framework service cloud supplier.
The application comprises of two tiers, both of which were formerly accommodated
on their structural framework of private cloud, however the tier web was allocated to the

CLOUD COMPUTING
framework of service provider of public cloud, and the tier of their database would persist on-
location. This would render them with a prospect and opportunity to fulfil the purpose of
validation of their framework design and enable application of future relocations to the public
cloud.
The application incorporates a back-end database tier and a front-end web tier.
Wepayu classified and categorized the applications as a low business impact (LBI)
application owing to the fact that it did not incorporate any personally-identifiable
information (PII), neither had it rendered any monitoring acquiescence needs. They opted for
an LBI application owing to the fact they aspired to initiate with a nominal risk asset as they
acquire more knowledge about designing, planning, managing and implementing a
crossbreed cloud structural framework.
Conclusion
For conclusion it can be said that the cloud system would be helpful for the
organization as they would be able to take their business online. The report provides the
details of the cloud development for their WePayU Application. In addition to this, the
conceptual design and the physical design has also been included in the report.
