Introduction
 NIST Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-
demand network access to a shared pool of configurable
computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage,
applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned
and released with minimal management effort or service
provider interaction.

5 Essential Characteristics 3 Service Models 4 Deployment Models

• On-demand self-service • SaaS • Public Cloud
• Resource pooling • PaaS • Private Cloud
• Rapid elasticity • IaaS • Community Cloud
• Measured service • Hybrid Cloud
• Broad network access

Source: NIST Definition of Cloud Computing v15

 Definition of “Cloud Service”
Cloud services are self-contained units of functionality or IT
capability offered through cloud computing to its consumers.
Cloud service offerings range from managed units of
computing infrastructure (such as storage) through
platforms (database, web containers, etc.) all the way to
complete software solutions (e.g. finance, HR, etc)

• Cloud Services don’t necessarily refer to

• SOA Services
• Web Services
• Helpdesk Services
