Creating and Validating a Cloud Deployment
In this section, I will go deeper into the technology architectures and processes that you will find in the world of cloud computing. It is important to see how much of an effect virtualization has had in the creation of cloud computing and to understand the process of taking physical hardware resources, virtualizing them, and then assigning these resources to systems and services running in the virtualized data center.
The Cloud Shared Resource Pooling Model
In this section, you will be introduced to resource pooling and learn what this means in the virtualized world of the cloud.
Resource pooling is when the cloud service provider allocates resources into a group, or pool, and then these pools are made available to a multitenant cloud environment. The resources are then dynamically allocated and reallocated as the demand requires. Resource pooling hides the physical hardware from the virtual machines and allows for many tenants to share resources...
