    The most important advantage of cloud technologies for social networking applications
  • With over 1 billion members, Facebook is perhaps the most visible and intriguing social networking platform. To keep up with this enormous expansion, Facebook has needed to be able to expand capacity and build new scalable technologies and software systems while retaining high speed to provide a seamless user experience. Multiple data centers are required to support systems with a large number of users. They require highly efficient infrastructure. In the case of Facebook, such a platform largely supports the system's major functionality while also providing APIs for integrating third-party apps - such - as social games and quizzes made by others.
  • LAMP is the foundation of the basic reference stack that serves Facebook (Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP). This set of technologies is complemented by a suite of additional in-house services. These services are written in several languages and include features like search, news feeds, alerts, and analytics, among others. The user's social graph is built while serving page requests. The social graph identifies a set of interconnected data that is relevant to a certain person. The majority of the user data is retrieved via a distributed cluster of MySQL instances, which are largely key-value pairs. After then, the data is cached for speedier retrieval. The rest of the pertinent data is subsequently put together utilizing the previously described services. These services are closer to the data and are written in languages that are more performant than PHP. A collection of domestically built tools aids in the creation of services.

Examples

Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Linked In, Pinterest, etc.

Productivity

From document storage to office automation and whole desktop environments hosted in the cloud, productivity tools mimic some of the most typical actions that we are used to executing on our desktop.

Examples

200 Dropbox, Google Drive, iCloud, Google Docs, Microsoft Office 365

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
