Cloud Computing Model Implementation for VideoDev - Report

This report provides a comprehensive analysis of cloud computing implementation for VideoDev, an Australian video production company facing challenges with its existing physical datacentre. The report explores the benefits of cloud computing, including increased efficiency and accessibility, and discusses various cloud models like Public, Private, Hybrid, and Community clouds. It focuses on the Platform as a Service (PaaS) model, recommending it for VideoDev due to its ability to provide both software and hardware support. The report examines the advantages and disadvantages of PaaS, as well as the potential for backlog removal through cloud-based systems. It also delves into the Standard Desktop Operating Environment (SDOE), Amazon Workspace, and Windows Virtual Desktop, offering recommendations for implementation. The report concludes by emphasizing the importance of selecting the right cloud-based system to enhance VideoDev's video production capabilities and overall performance. Finally, the report suggests Microsoft Azure as a suitable cloud-based system for VideoDev, offering a combination of software and hardware support.

Implementation in VideoDev

Introduction
An Australian video making and production development firm
known as VideoDev is currently thinking of shifting their
current physical datacentre into cloud based server as
because they are facing problems within their existing
system due to heavy workload.

What is a cloud
 A cloud can be referred to as a online service to store
files and other valuable applications which is stored in a
remote location. It provides service through either private
or public network that is through LAN, WAN OR VPN.

What is Cloud Computing
Cloud computing describes to the act of storing and sharing of
huge amount of data which was physically stored physically into
cloud based system for the ease of their clients. With the help of
cloud computing (Esposito et al., 2016), the clients can access the
database from any where in the world and for as long as they want
without any materials or maintenance.

Types of Cloud Computing
 Based on the use of the cloud servers, cloud computing can be
generally divided into 4 different parts –

Types of Cloud Computing Contd.
On the basis of cloud location the types of clouds are –
 Public Cloud
 Private Cloud
 Hybrid Cloud
 Community Cloud

Types of Cloud Computing Contd.
 The Hybrid cloud model: Combination of both public and private
clouds.

Several aspects of Cloud
ComputingVideoDev needs to understand the aspects and services
provided by cloud based platform in order to choose the
most appropriate one for them (Rittinghouse & Ransome,
2017). The services are –
 IaaS
 PaaS
 SaaS
 DaaS

Pros and cons of Cloud Computing

Why VideoDev needs to upgrade to
cloud based systems
 Efficiency in video production and processing will increase up
to great extent.
 Data can be accessed from anywhere without significant
software and hardware installation.
