Cloud technology is gradually crawling into every industry today. The ease and scalability that the cloud provides make it a lucrative option for all businesses.
Though many of us know about cloud computing, only some of us might know about the real power behind it. It is none other than cloud networking!
Even traditional networking, which has its place in the physical server, is responsible for the smooth data flow in the server. Similarly, a cloud network can also be termed the backbone of cloud computing.
In simple terms, it is the interconnectivity of physical servers at different data centers within the cloud to provide cloud computing services to businesses. It makes use of cloud-based services, to render networking services to clients. They do not have to worry about managing resources, making them escape the complex nexus of the network.
Every business wants to grow and cut costs without compromising on efficiency and productivity. This is exactly why we need cloud networking.
It provides us with a robust and secure network with the flexibility of resources deployed for operations. In the past, companies had to handle their physical hardware on their own, which required high capital investment and technical expertise. Not just this; even after having all these things in place, any sudden issue with the networking required a great deal of time to rectify it.
So if I have to put it down in a mathematical equation, it would be like this:
Total Cost of Physical Resources = Cost of Resources + Cost of Technical Team + Time
with Cloud Networking
All these costs can be cut down to ZERO.
How?
Because you do not have to deal with any physical infrastructure.
While the structure of cloud networking is quite difficult to understand, I’ll try to familiarize you with its basic components.
This is the real power of cloud networking. It makes use of virtual networks and network interfaces to direct the network to a suitable location. It helps in the flexible resource allocation.
It is basically used to provide enhanced security to organizations. VPCs create isolated networking environments like a private space where organizations can define their own unique IP address.
These are installed to ensure that no server gets overloaded with traffic beyond its capacity. This results in downtime, which affects businesses negatively. To avoid such critical issues, load balancers divert the traffic from one overburdened server to other less loaded servers.
This is another method to manage traffic on your websites and applications. It is a great alternative to traditional networking hardware such as routers and switches. They are not just complex but also require huge time and expertise to configure. SDN, on the other hand, is easier as it is software-based. It has pre-defined programs for the efficient management of the network.
Now that you have understood the basics of cloud networking, let me now introduce you to its types so that we can together go ahead in this nexus of cloud networking.
Such a network is suitable for businesses with limited capital. The third-party cloud providers offer network services to multiple organizations in the public cloud network. This reduces the investment of the companies in the hardware and its maintenance. It provides services to the internet, making them available for the companies through the internet.
The functionality of the private cloud network is completely similar to that of a public cloud network. The only point of difference is that it caters to a single organization only. It is suitable for big businesses that have a lot of traffic and thus require dedicated resources.
It is the combination of both public and private cloud networks. It offers the movement of data and applications between both of them. Hence, it provides enhanced scalability of resources and security of data.
Such cloud networks are used by organizations that want the best use of cloud services for a specific purpose. With multiple cloud networks, they can integrate different operations performed on various clouds. For example, one cloud provider can be used for storage while the other for analytics. Thus, multiple cloud networks help you integrate these operations so that you can make the best use of services available on different platforms.
Like all other cloud-based services, it has several benefits that can help you optimize your business growth. A few of them are listed below:
This is the primary and most important feature of all cloud services. Networking can be very tricky with hardware. Once the hardware is deployed, there is no coming back. Sometimes they can be useful when the traffic flow is extreme, but most of the time, they just remain dormant with no or little use. It is somewhat like owning a big white elephant.
Thanks to cloud networking that made scaling up and scaling down of resources possible and helped save businesses time, money, and human resources.
Cloud networks offer smooth performance without any hindrance. By using technologies like SDN and load balancers, they optimize the resources and make your traffic flow equally distributed among the servers. This helps businesses reduce downtime and ensure swift and uninterrupted services to their customers.
Since no hardware setup is required to access the cloud network services, it does not require any maintenance. This can save a huge amount of capital that businesses can use in marketing and branding.
Traffic flow is a highly dynamic phenomenon. There can be times with very little traffic, which may be handled easily by the IT team. But at times, there can be a high surge in the traffic, which requires acuminous technical expertise. With hardware, the task of managing the traffic becomes even more difficult. It is no less than fighting a war.
However, with cloud networks, technology like SDN has pre-built traffic distribution programs that fully automate the traffic distribution process.
All the above points mentioned together make cloud networking more cost-efficient than traditional networking.
