Book excerpt: For the past decade, tech giants like Amazon, Microsoft and Google have dominated enterprise computing with their centralized cloud platforms. But a revolution is brewing. Emerging blockchain-based networks promise to unseat these incumbents by decentralizing cloud infrastructure. In this groundbreaking book, author John Smith chronicles the rise of centralized computing, then reveals why decentralized blockchains now pose an existential threat to these IT empires. With advantages around cost, security and innovation, decentralized technologies are primed to capture a sizable share of the $500 billion cloud market. The book provides an insider's perspective on leading decentralized networks like Internet Computer and Cudos. It exposes the systemic risks and hidden vulnerabilities of today's data center oligarchy. Readers will learn how blockchain architectures can distribute trust, compute power and economic benefits more equitably. For technology leaders and investors preparing for the next wave of innovation, this book provides an indispensable guide to the coming decentralized future. It explores how hybrid models can help enterprises transition gradually. And it cautions against overconfidence from giants like AWS who face true disruption. Backed by extensive research and insights from pioneers, "The Decentralized Cloud" offers a brilliant analysis of how blockchain networks are poised to unseat established players across the cloud industry. This prescient work illuminates the next frontier in computing.

Book Decentralized Multi Resource Allocation in Clouds

Download or read book Decentralized Multi Resource Allocation in Clouds written by Patrick Poullie and published by . This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cloud computing is omnipresent nowadays, as it allows for a fine-grained partitioning of data center resources and for flexibly providing access to these resources. This partitioning and provisioning is achieved by hosting several Virtual Machines (VM) on the same physical machine. In contrast to commercial clouds, the performance of VMs in a private cloud is not captured by Service Level Agreements, and thus, all VMs are treated as processes of equal importance. As users operate different numbers of VMs and these VMs utilize different amounts of physical resources, this equal treatment of VMs leads to users receiving unequal amounts of physical resources. This thesis improves this situation by defining an efficient approach to enforce fairness in private clouds.This thesis shows that cloud resources are best controlled by changing priorities of VMs to access physical resources of their host and that no assumptions on utility functions can be made during this step. The premiss of this thesis that it is fair to constrain greedy users in favor of less greedy users requires a metric that quantifies the greediness of users based on their multi-resource self-servings from a shared resource pool. Thus, the Greediness Metric is developed based on a questionnaire among more than 600 participants on the intuitive understanding of greediness and fairness. The Greediness Metric is refined to define cloud fairness in a way that outperforms all existing cloud fairness definitions. To demonstrate the practical applicability of this cloud fairness definition, OpenStack is extended by an according service. The processing overhead of this service is evaluated and it is proven that it enforces fairness among users by coordinating the VM prioritization on hosts.

Book The Tower and the Cloud

Download or read book The Tower and the Cloud written by Richard N. Katz and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The emergence of the networked information economy is unleashing two powerful forces. On one hand, easy access to high-speed networks is empowering individuals. People can now discover and consume information resources and services globally from their homes. Further, new social computing approaches are inviting people to share in the creation and edification of information on the Internet. Empowerment of the individual -- or consumerization -- is reducing the individual's reliance on traditional brick-and-mortar institutions in favor of new and emerging virtual ones. Second, ubiquitous access to high-speed networks along with network standards, open standards and content, and techniques for virtualizing hardware, software, and services is making it possible to leverage scale economies in unprecedented ways. What appears to be emerging is industrial-scale computing -- a standardized infrastructure for delivering computing power, network bandwidth, data storage and protection, and services. Comsumerization and industrialization beg the question "Is this the end of the middle?"; that is, what will be the role of "enterprise" IT in the future? Indeed, the bigger question is what will become of all of our intermediating institutions? This volume examines the impact of IT on higher education and on the IT organization in higher education." -Web site blurb.

Book Machine Learning Techniques and Analytics for Cloud Security

This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MACHINE LEARNING TECHNIQUES AND ANALYTICS FOR CLOUD SECURITY This book covers new methods, surveys, case studies, and policy with almost all machine learning techniques and analytics for cloud security solutions The aim of Machine Learning Techniques and Analytics for Cloud Security is to integrate machine learning approaches to meet various analytical issues in cloud security. Cloud security with ML has long-standing challenges that require methodological and theoretical handling. The conventional cryptography approach is less applied in resource-constrained devices. To solve these issues, the machine learning approach may be effectively used in providing security to the vast growing cloud environment. Machine learning algorithms can also be used to meet various cloud security issues, such as effective intrusion detection systems, zero-knowledge authentication systems, measures for passive attacks, protocols design, privacy system designs, applications, and many more. The book also contains case studies/projects outlining how to implement various security features using machine learning algorithms and analytics on existing cloud-based products in public, private and hybrid cloud respectively. Audience Research scholars and industry engineers in computer sciences, electrical and electronics engineering, machine learning, computer security, information technology, and cryptography.
