Wu, Caesar,
Cloud data centers and cost modeling : a complete guide to planning, designing and building a cloud data center / [electronic resource] Caesar Wu, Rajkumar Buyya. - 1 online resource
Includes bibliographical references and index.
1. Cloud computing -- 2. Business needs -- 3. Identifying business problems: a case study -- 4. Data Center facilities -- 5. Data Center power -- 6. Power distribution unit and cabling -- 7. Data Center cooling -- 8. Effective air distribution in data centers -- 9. Cooling strategy -- 10. Fire suppression and on-site security -- 11. Cloud infrastructure servers: CISC, RISC, rack-mounted, and blade servers -- 12. Cloud storage basics -- 13. Data Center networks -- 14. Cost modeling: terms and definitions -- 15. Cost model categories -- 16. Chargeback -- 17. Cost model calculation -- 18. Real option theory and Monte Carlo simulation.
Cloud Data Centers and Cost Modeling establishes a framework for strategic decision-makers to facilitate the development of cloud data centers. Just as building a house requires a clear understanding of the blueprints, architecture, and costs of the project; building a cloud-based data center requires similar knowledge. The authors take a theoretical and practical approach, starting with the key questions to help uncover needs and clarify project scope. They then demonstrate probability tools to test and support decisions, and provide processes that resolve key issues. After laying a foundation of cloud concepts and definitions, the book addresses data center creation, infrastructure development, cost modeling, and simulations in decision-making, each part building on the previous. In this way the authors bridge technology, management, and infrastructure as a service, in one complete guide to data centers that facilitates educated decision making.
