What is Public Cloud?


                                                         Public Cloud By General Technologies
Public clouds are owned and operated by third party providers. Amazon Web Services or Microsoft Azure can be an example of public cloud. With a public cloud in place, all hardware, software and supporting services are owned and managed as managed services by the cloud provider. You can access these services and manage your account using a web- browser.
The major benefits of public cloud are:
  • Easy setup and usage of public cloud
  • Easy access to data on the public cloud
  • Highly flexible in terms of addition or reduction of usage capacity
  • 24/7 Uptimes of the public cloud
  • Highly cost effective
  • Highly scalable

The major concerns are:

  • Low privacy for public cloud data as it is hosted on third party providers

How does Software Defined Networking (SDN) Work?

Image
Visiting back, SD-WAN  is an acronym for software-defined  networking  in a wide area network (WAN). SD-WAN simplifies the management and operation of a WAN by decoupling (separating) the networking hardware from its control mechanism -Wikipedia Since SD-WAN separates  network mechanism  (WAN architecture) from its control mechanism (Routing Protocols and decisions), the routing decisions for each request can be made intelligently. No longer does a data packet or an application request from the Branch office need to Travel Back to the data center for it to be routed. Intelligence is added at the branch office location itself so that traffic can be routed across the WAN for the highest performance and efficiency outputs. How does SD-WAN work? In a network infrastructure environment, there are two planes- the data plane and the control plane. In an SD-WAN environment, the two planes are separated. However, in the traditional model, The Data plane and the control pl

CITRIX VDI as a solution

The challenges of these past few months have transformed our workplaces in numerous ways. More recently, a Gartner survey had reported that 88% of organizations have asked employees to work-from-home and nearly all organizations (97%) have canceled any work-related travel. Work-from-home, therefore, has become the new norm of the workplace today. While the workplace shifts to different environments, business continuity must continue. Businesses should not suffer from a remote work environment. Having the best virtual workplace environments helps to bridge this gap.  However, this is not always convenient. A remote worker faces various challenges. Common complaints include inaccessibility to essential applications and files, network connectivity,  security  threats, lack of essential devices, and low performance. This means there is a need in organizations to increase the capacity, capability, manageability, and visibility of a remote worker so that the technical issues do n
