IAAS Sample Clauses

IAAS. Infrastructure as a Service refers to clouds that provide machine abstractions directly to the end user. This is the most basic type of service, as it exposes machines directly. IaaS clouds may be implemented as “bare-metal” in which they expose actual physical machines (such as IBM SoftLayer), but more commonly IaaS refers to virtual machine clouds (such as Amazon EC2). IaaS clouds based on virtualization rely on several layers of software to safely expose the virtual machines to the user. A hypervisor is required on each physical machine to manage the local resources, and divide them among a set of virtual machines. A cloud orchestrator (such as OpenStack) is required to provision a new machine, and for setting up its relevant resources such as shared storage, and communication in the form of virtual LANs. Since XxxX exposes the virtual machine directly to the end user, the end user has practically full control over the software on the machine including the operating system and drivers all the way up the stack to the applications. This gives the user a large degree of control, but masks a lot of details from the cloud operator as to how efficiently the resources are actually being used. From an economic perspective, this is an efficient model for the cloud operator since the user can be billed for resource allocation, rather than resource utilization. From a resource allocation perspective, the cloud may be operating at a low efficiency level since there are few options available to the cloud operator to improve efficiency without affecting the quality of the service, and potentially violating the service level agreement (SLA).
