Public Cloud Options ---there are many --

3 of the leaders are (AWS, Microsoft and Google) --we will discuss AWS and Google

Amazon and Google Cloud Options

Platform as a Service- PAAS (Google only)

• Google App Engine and Supporting Services called Google Play Services (security, data, maps, email, etc)
  
  

Persistent Data options(and IAAS) -- see more specialty below categories

1. As Infrastructure (IAAS) - you install, maintain a data solution

   • Google Compute Engine, Container Engine

   • Amazon EC2:

NOTE: as this is IAAS you can choose your own set of tools to develop and languages



 

2. Traditional Database as a Service - they install, maintain, you pay for it

• Google Cloud SQL - using MySQL

• Amazon:

  • Amazon RedShift (PostgreSQL) - setup to be able to work with larger data than RDS, optimized over RDS.

  • Amazon Relational Database Service(RDS) -- MySQL, Oracl, SQL Server, PostgreSQL

   

1. NON-Traditional Database as a Service - (scallable, typically horizontal, distributed and possibly NoSQL right now)

   • Google Cloud Datastore

   • Amazon DynamoDB (and less scalable "older" Amazon SimpleDB)

2. BlobStore   

   • GAE Blobstore

   • "Amazon S3" --not really the same.

     • stores unstructured blobs up to 5TB

Cache Data options

• Google Memcache

• Amazon ElastiCache

Content Delivery Data options (beyond install yourself as infrastructure)

• Amazon CloudFront

Block Level Cloud Instances storage options (beyond install yourself as infrastructure)

• This is where you are backing up instances in an cloud infrastructure as a service for recovery from failure

  • Amazon Elastic Block Store

Software as a Service -SAAS

• Google - has mutliple services (Google Play Services) that is part of PAAS Google App Engine development---so that makes it hybrid over into SAAS

• Amazon - through pre-packaged apps via AWS Marketplace (lets you buy software to run on AWS)
  

Tools

• Google Developer Console

•
