Cloud Infrastructure definition

Cloud Infrastructure means those computing devices, including servers, networking equipment, data storage devices, and associated software used in the provision of the Cloud Services;
Cloud Infrastructure means any information technology services and/or systems provided to or accessed by the Company over the internet which are necessary for the Company to conduct its business;
Cloud Infrastructure means the collection of hardware and software that enables the five essential characteristics of cloud computing. The cloud infrastructure can be viewed as containing both a physical layer and an abstraction layer. The physical layer consists of the hardware resources that are necessary to support the cloud services being provided, and typically includes server, storage and network components. The abstraction layer consists of the software deployed across the physical layer, which manifests the essential cloud characteristics. Conceptually the abstraction layer sits above the physical layer. [NIST]

Examples of Cloud Infrastructure in a sentence

  • If any additional Standards and Accreditations (including any of those mentioned in Framework Agreement and Call-Off Terms) are to apply to the provision of the Managed Cloud Services, Consulting Services and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Services under a Call Off Contract, these must (apart from those required by applicable Law) be explicitly set out in the applicable Call Off Order Form signed on behalf of the parties.

  • It is acknowledged by the Buyer that for Managed Cloud Services, Consulting Services and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Services, the Oracle Corporate Security Practices (as applicable) are regarded as providing sufficient protection equivalent to the Cyber Essentials scheme.


More Definitions of Cloud Infrastructure

Cloud Infrastructure means hardware and software components – such as servers, storage, networks and virtualisation software – that are needed to support the computing requirements of a cloud computing model.
Cloud Infrastructure means the Product, and the computing, storage, networking, and other hardware and software infrastructure used in providing the Services in the Cloud Edition.
Cloud Infrastructure means the Supplier’s computer hardware, firmware, software and communications infrastructure which is used to facilitate access to the Applications by the Buyer;
Cloud Infrastructure means the hardware and software resources, which are located in enterprise-grade data centres, used to deploy the Services, including the host servers, switches, firewalls, hypervisor, and Operating System Instances (OSIs) provided by Rackspace, as set forth in Customer’s Service Order(s). This excludes Customer Appliances.
Cloud Infrastructure means the numerous data centres managed by Cloud Services Providers (third party vendors) located throughout the world that have installed hardware necessary for providing cloud-based solutions like servers, networks, storage, development tools, and applications (apps) accessible virtually via the Internet;
Cloud Infrastructure. The Cloud Infrastructure consists of all “cloud-hosted” elements that are used to provision and manage the architectural aspects of the system comprised of the CCAP and related equipment; such aspects to include security policies, intrusion prevention signatures, radio frequency management, and quality of service. Internet access services, non-CCAP equipment at the Customer Site, including the Managed CPEs, are not part of the Cloud Infrastructure. The CCAPs will set up tunnels between the Cloud Infrastructure and the CCAPs to enable the flow of management and data traffic to support Customer’s applications. Dynamic host configuration protocol (“DHCP”) provided with the CCAPs will enable automatic IP address assignment. The Cloud Infrastructure is set up in a redundant fashion, with other data centers used as back up. Failover Cloud Infrastructure instances run in stand-by mode and activate if primary Cloud Infrastructure instances fail.
Cloud Infrastructure. The cloud infrastructure provisioned as a service (IaaS) shall offer services such as DBMS, content delivery, and identity and access management thereby enhancing the capabilities and flexibility of cloud environments. Collectively, these components form the backbone of cloud computing, empowering organizations to deploy and scale their applications efficiently while optimizing resource utilization and cost management. The System Integrator can leverage existing on-premises (not mandatory) infrastructure which is currently a strategic approach by ITPO and looking to modernize their IT systems while making the most of its current investments. This involves optimizing and extending the lifespan of existing hardware, software, and data center resources and transitioning to a fully cloud-based model. Thus, leveraging the existing infrastructure include implementing virtualization technologies to improve resource utilization, adopting hybrid cloud solutions that shall integrate on-premises and cloud resources seamlessly, and assist in regular assessment and upgradation of hardware and software to maintain the required efficiency and security.
