 Features to look for in a Virtualization Platform

 1. Reduction of Capital Expenditures (CAPEX): 

Server usage levels are typically modest, averaging approximately 15%. Virtualization has the potential to double throughput. This implies that a corporation may utilize less hardware and save money on electricity. It is important to note that this must be balanced against the total cost of ownership of the virtualization platform.

2. System Consolidation: 

An organization decreases the number of physical servers necessary by running numerous applications and operating systems. This is a method of utilizing computer server resources efficiently to decrease the total number of servers or server locations required by a company.

3. Ease of System Management:

 Easy administration in this sense refers to how quickly new services such as platform as a service (PaaS), infrastructure as a service (IaaS), and software as a service (SaaS) can be implemented. It also refers to the agility and rapidity with which new application stacks are deployed.

4.  Platform Maturity: 

Virtualization is a costly long-term investment that will be squandered if suppliers are swapped. As a result, new market entrants may not be a good option for mission-critical data centers.

5. Hardware Compatibility: 

Hardware challenges with virtualizing platforms include outright incompatibility and sub-optimal performance. Hosted hypervisors often support the widest range of hardware types, whereas bare-bonesvirtualizers are often picky about supported hardware. If you intend to reuse existing gear, be sure that your platform of choice supports it.

6. Total Cost of Ownership: 

The total cost of ownership includes more than simply the cost of acquiring a virtualization platform. Additional costs should be considered, such as guest licensing, training and support, and hardware. The acquisition of sophisticated management is one expense component that is frequently overlooked. These are typically not included in the initial purchase price.

Suppose that a data warehouse for Big-University consists of the following four dimensions: student, course, semester, and instructor, and two measures count and avg_grade. When at the lowest conceptual level (e.g., for a given student, course, semester, and instructor combination), the avg_grade measure stores the actual course grade of the student. At higher conceptual levels, avg_grade stores the average grade for the given combination. a) Draw a snowflake schema diagram for the data warehouse. b) Starting with the base cuboid [student, course, semester, instructor], what specific OLAP operations (e.g., roll-up from semester to year) should one perform in order to list the average grade of CS courses for each BigUniversity student. c) If each dimension has five levels (including all), such as “student < major < status < university < all”, how many cuboids will this cube contain (including the base and apex cuboids)?

a) A Snowflake Shema is shown in figure below: b) The specific OLAP operations to be performed: 1. Roll-up on course from course_id to department. 2. Roll-up on a student from student_id to university. 3. Dice on course, student with department ="CS" and university = "biguniversity" 4. Drill-down on a student from the university to student_name. c) N = 4 dimensions The cube will contain 54 = 625 cuboids.

Describe how cloud computing technology can be applied to support remote ECG monitoring.

  Healthcare: ECG (Electrocardiogram) Analysis in cloud computing Healthcare is a field, subject, sector, or territory in which information technology has several uses. These apps are being used to aid businesses in supporting scientists in developing disease prevention solutions. Cloud computing has emerged as an appealing alternative for constructing health monitoring systems as a result of the development of the Internet or to put it another way, as a result of the availability of the internet. The ECG machine, for example, is a health monitoring device that measures the human body's heartbeat and prints the results on graph paper. The electrocardiogram (ECG) measures the electrical activity of the heart's Cardium. A waveform is created as a result of this action, which is repeated throughout time and symbolizes the heartbeat.  The analysis of the shape is used to identify arrhythmias, and it is the most common way of detecting heart diseases. Here the meaning of arrhythmias

Explain market-Oriented Cloud computing architecture.

  Market Oriented Cloud Computing (Mocc) As customers rely on Cloud providers to cover all of their computing needs, they will expect certain Qe from their providers to fulfill their objectives and continue their operations. Cloud providers must examine and satisfy the various QoS standards of each unique consumer as stipulated in unique SLAs. To do this, cloud providers cannot continue to install traditional system-centric resource management architectures that do not give incentives for them to share their resources while still treating all service requests as equal insignificance. Instead, market-oriented resource management is required to maintain the supply and demand for Cloud resources at market equilibrium, provide feedback in the form of economic incentives for both Cloud consumers and providers, and promote QoS-based resource allocation mechanisms that differentiate service requests based on their utility. The diagram depicts a high-level architecture for enabling market-orie
