Explain briefly the below products of cloud platform, Please make sure to paraphrase the words on your own words.
- Security, Identity and Compliance
- Internet of things
- Machine learning
- Mobile services
- Developer tools
- Cloud storage
- Networking
- Blockchain
- Databases
Security, Identity and Compliance - These key terms indicate that the cloud products have to have security of the data, so that no random user can take a peek, or modify by any means as well as they should have a way to authenticate the actual user, via a password or something like a digital certificate, it should be compliant to all needs, like the plans and services to be used.
Internet of things - Connection of everything to the internet to be user from any where, to report to the cloud, analyse things, automation is brought to another level when everything is available to you online via your cloud.
IoT is basically giving control of all machines and devices to the cloud and you can access the machine instructions via cloud at anytime from any location. Mostly consistent of sensory networks it's a huge market in future where everything will be automatically done via these devices and recorded on cloud.
Machine Learning - The Technology that changed the 20th Century, the service of ML is widely used today form text to speech, for understanding multiple languages, handwriting, human behaviour and with the MaaS ( Machine Learning as Service) over cloud it can be a huge help for people to use all those IoT data we just saved a minute ago.
It helps businesses make he right decisions and help Understanding the market and customer better.
Developers Tools - Gone are those days when you needed your laptop with all the kits and libraries to be used for Development, today with a cloud based service like Google Colab one can access there work with all the custom development tools available on the environment from anywhere. More importantly the Microsoft if moving its entire Windows online on cloud by next 3-4 years which will change everything we have to download and install in our laptops today, all because of these Development tools.
Cloud Storage - Saving things that are increasing by the day is difficult Specially when we have so much to save, so we have the cloud storage service which is basically your hard disk on the cloud so that when and only if you need something you can download it and use it as its always going to be on the cloud. There are multiple services that let you store 5-10 GB of data per account for free all those Drive, Drop Box are Cloud Storage Services.
Networking - Network is the simplest of the ways are nothing but a group of devices sharing resources and information. If this same infrastructure goes on the cloud it's called a Cloud Network, the only difference is that you can share resources over the cloud which makes it more flexible and useable from any place.
BlockChain - This technology has its biggest use only the places where we need security, In the simplest of the terms every transaction to your database can done by the BlockChain and in addition it will keep a ledger which helps you to keep track of all the information about what who when of transaction and good thing is that it's distributed so can't be closed on a single point, it's available to everyone.
It's a much safer new way of sharing Information and keeping a track of everything that happens.
Databases - This is a set of tools that helps keep the data in a structural format in the cloud, there are multiple types by most common is MySQL ( Structured Query language). And it represents a RDBMS ( Relational Database) which keeps the data just like a excel sheet in terms of rows and columns which is to be common in all records of the kind.
Data base provides better services then saving data in files, and searching for everything when needed in files, same goes in for the cloud.
