“Cloud computing is a general term for anything that involves delivering hosted services over a
network. These services are broadly divided into three categories:
Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS).”
What is The Cloud?

Technospeak decryption:
Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)I want a load of servers connected to each other
Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)I want a web server connected to an app server and a database
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). I want 5 exchange mailboxes

What is The Cloud?
@ShapeBlue #CloudStack #CCCEU13
Public clouds (SPs/MSPs)General public can create or log into instances themselves
Private Clouds (Enterprises)Anyone who wants to be able to orchestrate their environment
Who Uses Clouds?
@ShapeBlue #CloudStack #CCCEU13
CloudStack is a hypervisor agnostic open source IaaS platform.
CloudStack orchestrates hypervisors and network appliances to give control simple to complex tasks
What is CloudStack
@ShapeBlue #CloudStack #CCCEU13
