I know you not mean and nasty, thank you for the respond which still not quite related to the question.
If anyone knows the answer of my question, will be great and appreciated. Again, question = howto start the apache cloudstack program/services installED to have a look? I don't even know the command to open it? |
TB0ne has a point
a "cloud" is basically something dreamed up by AN AD AGENCY !!!!( think "Mad Men") as a "catch phrase " from your post you DO NOT know what "it" is are you running about $1,000,000 or MORE in blade servers and have 120 or more PAYING clients for the servers and do those customers ( computer and processing ) needs vary from day to day so much so that you HAVE to hire MORE STAFF !!! if so then a "cloud" solution might be needed it can REPLACE THAT STAFF you had to hire because it will AUTOMATICALLY adjust the servers and the VM'ed servers to meet your PAYING clients NEEDS by allowing you to ONLY charge then for JUST what they are using and THAT saves them CASH and saves YOU cash by only using the electricity that is NEEDED at that time -- saving YOU CASH !!!!!! basically it is a REHASH of the 1970's ( disco - got to love it ) Mainframe and clients on a time share the "cloud" part is a software improvement on the "time share" an example : lets say you are a small Accountant come April you ARE BUSY very busy around tax time so busy that you NEED a ton of processing power, storage space, bandwidth, and servers to handle all the work now it makes NO business sense to pay for all this ALL YEAR AROUND you only need that much for 2 months of the year so for the other 10 months you only pay for the 1/4 of the "cloud" space and use but for those 2 months you par 4 times for 4 times the computers |

And being given complete documentation IS 'related to the question'. And again, what is your goal? What are you trying to accomplish? If you don't know what this software is, what it does, or how to use it, why are you installing it???? |

The term "Cloud Computing" refers to the on-demand delivery of IT resources via the Internet with pay-as-you-go pricing. Let's have example of well known hosting service providers first, like GoDaddy.com and Amazon.com. GoDaddy offering many choices usually paid by monthly or annually. And now the latest cloud service providers, they would charge flexibly, the service fee can count in per day even per hour! So I feeling that's tougher to the IT professional. reference: http://aws.amazon.com/what-is-cloud-computing/ |

Oh? Why is that? And 'research' usually involves more than one source...what you posted is verbatim from the Amazon AWS page, which is only ONE type of 'cloud computing'. |
to protect machine, let it rest for hours like following
RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{TIME_HOUR}%{TIME_MIN} >0200 RewriteCond %{TIME_HOUR}%{TIME_MIN} <0400 RewriteRule .* - [F] I still believe cloud meaning apache web server. you visit a machine.. inside got some content to read |

If you really want to understand what cloud computing is then I would suggest reading this. It is not vendor specific and clearly defines what cloud is.
Cloud is really a fancy term which people like to flaunt / brag about. I have been there and I can say that there is not much difference and it is more of marketing. In simple terms it is pay and use stuff. Will it make a difference if you rent a house and pay for it or you own a house (Please don't start that owning a house is an asset, it is just an example)? Ultimately you are using the house. Similarly in cloud you pay for what you use. You are using a VM hosted on their server you pay for it, you need DR (disaster recovery) you pay for it, you need additional space you pay for it, you need managed services you pay for it and the list goes on.

It will be good if you have a look at the links provided by other members and the wiki link which I mentioned in this post. Once you are through the discussion will be more fruitful and interesting. |
