#SOONINCLOUD — PART-1

Embark on a Cloud Odyssey: Unraveling Complexities for Boutiques(onprem) to 3 major Cloud Providers (#AWS, #GCP, #AZURE)— Stay tuned for more in-depth insights! Follow to stay connected and receive timely updates on upcoming blogs, as we delve deeper into the intricate details of cloud computing tailored for small businesses.

As a recent graduate specializing in cloud computing, you’ve been enlisted by a local boutique bookstore to offer guidance on a potential cloud deployment. Currently, their e-commerce platform operates on a single computer located near the checkout counter, and the owners have identified a need for a more robust solution. Your task is to present examples of feasible cloud deployments and provide an estimated cost analysis to meet their evolving business requirements.

Question 1: What tools do the three major cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure) offer to identify the cost of moving an existing on-premises deployment to the cloud? (3 marks) Answer 1: To assist organizations in migrating their on-premises infrastructure deployment to the cloud like AWS, GCP, and Azure, it provides cost estimation tools.

  1. AWS (Amazon Web Services) AWS total cost of ownership (TCO) Calculator with the TCO calculator, you will get an idea about the expenses occurring in on-premises infrastructure vs migrating to the AWS cloud. (AWS TCO Calculator, n.d.)
  2. GCP (Google Cloud Platform) Google provides a pricing calculator that helps you calculate the cost of using GCP services. By entering information regarding your current on-premises infrastructure and configuring GCP resources, you can obtain cost projections. (Google Cloud, n.d.)
  3. AZURE (Microsoft Azure) Azure Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Calculator: Microsoft’s Azure TCO Calculator allows you to assess the potential cost savings of moving to Azure from an on-premises infrastructure. (Azure TCO Calculator, n.d.)
little bit Arranged But Still Confused ……..we!!!

Question 2: What benefits will the boutique gain from moving to a cloud deployment rather than a new on-premises or co-located deployment?

Answers 2:

Scalability and Flexibility: By utilizing a cloud-based infrastructure, the boutique gains the advantage of effortlessly adjusting its resources to meet varying demands. This grants them the ability to handle surges in website traffic during busy hours or special occasions without having to bear the burden of procuring and maintaining extra hardware on-site. Conversely, during less bustling periods, they can easily downsize their resource allocation to reduce expenses. The inherent scalability and flexibility provided by this approach not only result in cost savings but also enhance customer satisfaction through smoother experiences. (ibistechnology, n.d.)

Cost Effectiveness: Pay-as-you-go cloud deployments frequently let the boutique only pay for the resources they utilize. As a result, there is no longer a need for significant up-front capital expenditures for buying and maintaining on-premises hardware. Additionally, cloud service providers provide various price plans and discounts, which can eventually lower the boutique’s overall IT costs. Small firms with tight budgets might especially benefit from this cost effectiveness. (ibistechnology, n.d.)

Disaster recovery and reliability: Cloud service companies often provide reliable infrastructure and redundant data. This lowers the possibility of service interruptions brought on by hardware breakdowns or natural disasters because the boutique’s website and data are spread across several data centers. Backup and disaster recovery solutions are also provided by cloud providers, making it simpler for the boutique to restore data and preserve business continuity in the event of unplanned catastrophes. This improved dependability can aid in ensuring that clients can always access the boutique’s website. (ibistechnology, n.d.)

Cost on Cloud……Will be clear Soon

Question 3: Based on the scenario described above, use AWS pricing tools to describe and cost at least two different options for deploying the boutique website on AWS.

Answer 3:

Solution 1: Simple Web Hosting with Amazon EC2 In this case, the boutique can use Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances to set up a straightforward web hosting setup. More flexibility and control over the environment are available with this option. Resources: 2 t2.micro EC2 instances are needed for scalability and redundancy. Database hosting with Amazon RDS (Relational Database Service). Cost Prediction: EC2: 2 x t2.micro instances, each costing $0.013 per hour. A tiny instance of Amazon RDS costs $0.025 per hour. Estimated monthly expense: ($0.025 x 24 hours/day x 30 days) plus ($2 instances x $0.013 x 24 hours/day x 30 days) = about $74.40. (calculator.aws, n.d.)

Solution 2: Serverless architecture utilizing Amazon S3 and AWS Lambda The boutique can benefit from AWS Lambda and Amazon S3 in this serverless alternative for a low-cost and incredibly scalable website. Resources: For serverless computing, use AWS Lambda. Hosting static websites with Amazon S3. For a serverless NoSQL database, use Amazon DynamoDB. Cost Prediction: AWS Lambda: The first million queries are free, and each further million requests cost $0.20. Amazon S3: The price of storage is based on the volume of data kept. Costs for Amazon DynamoDB vary according to read and write capacity units. The traffic to the website, the volume of static material stored on S3, and the use of DynamoDB for database requirements will all have an impact on the cost estimate for this option. For low to moderate cost applications. (calculator.aws, n.d.)
