Synergy defines Cloud Infrastructure Equipment as the data center infrastructure (computer, storage,
networking and software elements) that is deployed to provide cloud services. Cloud services are defined
as Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). The
characteristics of a Cloud service include scalability, elasticity, on-demand, pay-per-use, and self-service
provisioning.

While Cloud Infrastructure is comprised predominantly of virtualized data centers, there are some non-
virtualized configurations being used to deploy Cloud services. Synergy defines virtualization as the
creation of virtual machines, which appear and function as a standalone hardware platform and associated
operating system. The purpose of virtualization is to improve scalability and hardware-resource utilization.
Applications and software running on a virtual machine are separated from the underlying computing
and/or storage resources.

Cloud provides service providers the ability to build new revenue-generating services and enables private
enterprises the ability to maximize their IT resources. A Public Cloud is a data center that resides behind a
service providers firewall, which supports Cloud services to subscribers over the Internet.

A Private Cloud is a data center that resides behind a companys firewall providing cloud services, where
services and IT resources are only accessible to the users of that particular organizations network.
