Hello,



[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif]But it can simply be done or called virtualization, where we can maintain the cluster and resources of hardware dynamically. So the question I had that moment was, is the big cloud hosting giants fooling us by just creatively naming their products and selling it on high cost. and such services can be offered by any hosting company with required resources.[/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif]No offense please, I am not technically sound but being a small customer who wants to upgrade on cloud had a thought/doubt about the service after researching little. I hope that your thoughts will definitely help me understand cloud better.[/font]

Virtualization is a generic term used to represent a virtual entity as a physical entity. This could also be sharing a single physical device into multiple virtual devices.

There are mainly 3 kinds of virtualizations:
1> Storage virtualization
2> Network virtuaization
3> Server virtualization

Cloud services are the on-demand services availed via internet. These services are designed to provide scalable & easy access to applications, services and resources that are entirely managed by cloud service providers. Cloud services comprise of wide array of resources that are delivered by a service provider to its customers. Cloud services market across the globe is already intense and have attained significant market penetration across the globe.
 
Hello,

the below discriptive technology have synchronised to each other. the simply mean of cloud that all the server are like cluster from like dot pint in circle,
and the technologies wihich play role in this fundemental called virtualization, in virtualkization hardware has spilted in multiple part with differnet resoures like RAM HDD, Core and so more.
In Virtualization technologies the hardware has divided in different chunk by KVM based. And each VM has KVM based in virtualoization and each VM has different HW.
In cloud (cluster ) each vm has graphical enviroment whereas they can monitoring all the thing on server like reboot, restart, stop or so more.
 
Virtualization allows you to create multiple simulated environments or dedicated resources from a single physical hardware system. The resources are delivered to specific users for a specific purpose.

Cloud computing is a set of principles and approaches to deliver compute, network, and storage infrastructure resources, services, platforms, and applications to users on-demand across any network. Deliver variable resources to groups of users for a variety of purposes.
 
Cloud computing is virtualization billed as a utility. Cloud computing usually means outsourcing your virtualisation to a vendor with a lot of compute capacity.

Cloud computing is virtualuzation at large scale billed by consumption.

Cloud computing also means infrastructure as code wich means you can automate infrastructure tasks.

So you can say cloud computing is a business model of selling virtualisation at large scale.

Virtualisation is the technology behind cloud computing. You deploy hypervisors which divide up a physical machine into many virtual machines. These virtual machines are sold as cloud computing instances.
