To understand how cloud computing can be of value to an organization, it is important to us that we understand the cloud and its components. There are three different types of cloud computing services referred to as Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS). IaaS delivers cloud computing infrastructure servers, storage, network and operating systems as an on-demand service. SaaS is about software deploying over the Internet. PaaS allows a creation of web applications without the complexity of buying and maintaining the software and infrastructure. In this paper, I will suggest that Innovartus Technology Inc should use IaaS as a replacement for PaaS because IaaS is a rapidly developing field with resources such as better services, cost variability, utility pricing model and dynamic scaling.
Instead of purchasing infrastructure equipment, companies can buy resources as a fully outsourced service on demand by using IaaS cloud computing. According to Kepes, some sub-categories are worth noting for IaaS as it is as public that consists of shared resources, deployed on a self-service basis over the Internet (Kepes, 2013). For example, Amazon is one of the largest IaaS providers. The line between PaaS and IaaS is becoming more blurred as vendors introduce tools as part of IaaS helps deploying multiple types of clouds. Kepes stated that moving to cloud infrastructure has given him more peace of mind where his company had a part-time systems administrator working on their sites. The systems administrators will make minor changes as they see fit and respond to any downtime within minutes to fix the problem.

Instead of purchasing infrastructure equipment, companies can buy resources as a fully outsourced service on demand by using IaaS cloud computing. IaaS also offer two cost savings of the cloud computing for Innovartus Technology, economies of scales and utility-based pricing model. Finally, like PaaS, but IaaS offers better services for software development and focuses on workflow management regardless of the data source used for the application.

The PaaS method cloud infrastructure has saved companies millions of dollars. One downfall that the PaaS structure has is that every company relies on the PaaS also relies upon the uptime of the vendor providing the service. If a vendor goes down then depending on how bad it is can put each company using their service at a potential financial loss.
Nicolas Carr believes that the internet effects cognition. He assumes that it shapes the way we think. In Nicolas Carr’s, “Is Google Making Us Stupid,” there is a direct correlation between Taylorism and google’s mission of creating “a utopia of perfect efficiency,” robbing humans of deep thinking, resulting in the depletion of learning to articulate the minds erratic consciousness, and of its attention span.
As its core essences cloud computing is nothing but a specialized form of grid computing and distributing computing’s which various in terms of infrastructure , deployment, service and Geographic’s dispersion (Veeramachanenin, Sepetember 2015) the cloud enhance scalability, collaboration, availability , ability to adapt to fluctuation according to demand accelerate development work and provide optional for cost reduction and through efficient and optimized computing. (BH kawljeet, June 2015) cloud computing (CC) recently become as a new paradigm for the delivery and hosting of services our the internet. There are mainly three service delivery model Software as Service (SaaS) required software, operating system and network is provided or we can say in SaaS the customer can access the hosted software instead of installing it in local computer and the user can access these software through local computer internet browser (e.g web enabled E-mail ) the user only pay and the cloud service provider is responsible for management or control of mobile cloud infrastructure some of the company which provide such service are Google, Microsoft , Salesforce ,Facebook, etc…..Infrastructure as Service(IaaS)the cloud provider only provide some hardware resources such as network and virtualization is

He states how he used to spend hours reading, but his concentration started to drift after two or three pages. He backed up his theory with stories from others who say they’re experiencing the same thing. But they still await the long-term neurological and psychological experiments that will provide a definitive picture of how the internet affects cognition. After a brief history lesson, Carr starts to incorporate Google into the article. He tells us about Google’s history and their mission.
To sum up, cloud computing may not be cost-effective, especially under some circumstances. For those enterprises which already have certain scales, upfront investment of moving up to cloud could be substantial due to the magnificent data foundation. Once an organization involved in cloud, that means it is going to rely on cloud to some degree. The efficiency of the organization might suffer from delayed technical support. Even some practical cases (MemSQL, Zynga and Uber) show cloud is not suitable for long-term business operation. Besides, a company may suffer a great loss due to cloud’s security issue. Thus cautious consideration should be taken by before the final decision.
Cloud computing is a relatively new technology that allows data to be stored, distributed and manipulated with greater ease than ever. As described by Gurjar and Rathore (2013), the “Cloud is a large pool of easily usable and accessible virtualized resources. These resources can be dynamically reconfigured to adjust to a variable load, allowing also for an optimum resource utilization” (p. 1). By moving data, documents and media to the Cloud, the potential for business efficiency and productivity increases and anyone with internet can take advantage of the benefits. As with anything, it is important to understand the risks and benefits in order to weigh whether or not moving to the Cloud is the best move for the business. Some companies, like Lavu, an iPad based point of sale system, operate solely on the Cloud. Without Cloud computing capability, some organizations would not exist.
Cloud computing is able to increase the speed of business. Cloud computing offers the speed to make computing resources on an instance basis, not just need to first survey time and skilled resources in design and implement infrastructure and applications to deploy and test it. Cloud computing can engance revenue, share bigger market, or other advantages.
...Implementation of cloud systems can be implemented in stages with costs that coincide with usage. The ROI outweighs the issues or problems that could occur. Cloud computing gives a competitive advantage of being able to keep up with changes in technology without having the cost involved. Amazons cloud computing allowed companies like Ericsson to remain competitive and thrive.
The term “Cloud” is very popular among entrepreneurs and marketers, but it simply means the wonders of Internet. Cloud computing shares the same concept as utility computing, in which all the computers are connected through a network and shared computing resources, such as computation, storage and services, over the network. Typically, there are three major models of cloud computing services on the market, which are software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and infrastructure as a service (IaaS).
Cloud computing services provide a multitude of benefits for businesses of every size. Cloud computing services offer “flexible computing power and data storage, as well as data management, messaging, payment and other services that can be used together or individually (Laudon 2014). The list of benefits is long and varied. Cloud computing services are universal. Anyone and everyone can use the system. Cloud computing is cost effective. There is no maintenance fee, but rather a business pays for what they use. The amount of storage space is unlimited. This is a boon to companies who cannot accurately predict data usage. The ability to access private and public clouds ensures stability and security.
