14. Business Decisions to go for Cloud
● Resizing of computational resource based on real time
requirement
● Choices for the type of Platforms-Operating System etc.
● Pay for what was used
● Concept for pre booking and spot pricing makes non-critical
tasks very affordable

24. One of the Fathers of Cloud Computing
“In retrospect I realize that in almost everything that we worked on together, we
were both amateurs... But the things that we studied were so new that no one
else knew exactly what they were doing either. It was amateurs who made the
progress.”
‐W. Daniel Hillis, on Richard Feynman
