Cloud Computing Explained: Introduction, Technologies, Applications & Challenges

Comments 179 Comments

We encounter cloud computing every day. For instance, if you use an Android phone, your photos and videos are likely backed up to a cloud service like Google Drive. Similarly, if you use Microsoft OneDrive, your data is copied to the cloud. Cloud computing also supports our email services, social media, and messaging apps like WhatsApp. But what exactly is cloud computing? Cloud computing can be defined as a utility service. Just like electricity, gas, or water, cloud computing provides…

Big Data refers to datasets that are too large and complex for traditional data processing applications to handle efficiently. It is characterized by the 5 Vs: Volume, Velocity, Variety, Veracity, and Value. Volume refers to the vast amount of data generated, Velocity refers to the speed at which data is generated and processed, Variety refers to the different types of data (structured, semi-structured, and unstructured), Veracity refers to the reliability and quality of the data, and Value refers to the…

Why Edge Computing? Every Thing you Need

Why Edge Computing? Every Thing you Need

Comments 0 Comment

Edge computing processes and stores data close to the device being used. Instead of overloading the mainstream network with big data, which might not even be required, not only overload the mainstream network, but it also decreases the edge devices’ response time. Therefore, time-sensitive operations, need an edge server to process the data in real-time. Edge computing is becoming popular, and business is shifting toward the edge to minimize network delay and cost.

Issues and challenges in Cloud Storage: What you Need to Know

Comments 0 Comment

Cloud Storage provides storage services as a vitalized environment where a user has no control over the data. In such a situation, a user may ask questions like “where exactly is my data located?”, “what happens if I delete my data?” and “is the deleted data really deleted?”. From home appliances to industrial enterprises, the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) industry is revolutionizing the world. We are witnessing the emergence of new technologies (e.g, Cloud computing, Fog computing, Internet of…

What is Regional Computing? How Can it Address the Social Big Data Effects?

What is Regional Computing? How Can it Address the Social Big Data Effects?

Comments 10 Comments

Regional Computing is similar to edge or fog computing, placed near the users’ end to process and store the data at the regional level, rather than migrating it to the cloud. Regional computing drastically minimizes turnaround time, transfer time and costs. Social media cloud servers are located at a long distance, resulting in delays and large workload, leading to low performance and high costs. Regional computing can be used to solve this problem, which already has about 104 billion global investments in the form of edge and fog computing (Badshah et al., 2020, Badshah et al., 2019, Social Networks Statistics, 2021).
