Cloud Computing - Compute
SHOW: Season 1, Show 1OVERVIEW: From the creators of the Internet's #1 Cloud Computing podcast, The Cloudcast, Aaron Delp (@aarondelp) and Brian Gracely (@bgracely) introduce this new podcast, Cloudcast Basics. What does compute mean in the cloud? CPU, Memory, Operating System (Linux/Windows), local Storage, GPUs, basic networking (I/O)How is compute allocated? Bare Metal, Virtual Machine, Container - the concept of “slicing” up a computer into various sizes. How was compute allocated before cloud computing? IT tickets, rack & stack, install software, etc.What does the cloud computing provider do with compute (responsibilities vs. customer responsibilities)?Why are there so many variations of compute? Do some applications require specific compute?Does it matter where the compute is located? How do clouds organize the compute (availability zones, regions, etc.)?How much does compute cost in the cloud? What are the various ways you can buy compute (or have it be billed - on demand, reserved instances, spot instances, usage credits)?
