Explanation of Solution

Cloud:

The term cloud can be defined as the process that let the computer resources to be accessed anytime anywhere over the internet. The cloud can be represented as the elastic leasing of the various computer resources that are known as the pooled resources that can be accessed over the internet.

Explanation about the key terms:

In the definition for the cloud the key term that has been used are discussed as follows:

Elastic:

  • The term elastic has been used in the definition meaning that the amount of resources can be increased or decreased in any point of time.
  • The organization can use the computer resources and they can pay for their various resources that have been used for many organizational activities.
  • In order to running any particular website then the organization can also able to buy some space in the cloud in order to maintain the organizational activities over the internet rapidly.

Pooled:

  • In general, most of the cloud resources are pooled because the hardware components are similar for many organizations.
  • Cloud resources are considered to be pooled since different organizations are sharing the same physical hardware resources using the virtualization.
  • Virtualization allows the rapid making of new virtual machines and it will increase the accessibility of company’s system with reduced cost.

Over the internet:

  • The cloud has been implemented in order to access the computing resources from anywhere and anytime over the internet.
  • Hence using the internet connectivity the computer resources can be accessed and shared for any organizational activities over the internet.

Difference between mainframe, client server and cloud architectures:

Mainframe architecture Client-server architecture Cloud architecture

It supports connection between a central mainframe and many computer terminals. All information, applications and its processing control are placed on central mainframe.

User’s personal computer gets connected to the Internet and buying servers to host their website pages and data.

  • It allows a client to send request to servers across the Internet. Server service the request by sending data back to the client.
  • In this architecture, all applications and data storage are resided on both client and servers.

This architecture allows employee and customer to access company data and applications placed on cloud.

  • All information, applications and its processing control are used remotely with many devices like PC, mobiles, thin clients and so on.

Difference between scalability and elasticity:

Question 2 (10 Points): String vs. StringBuilder Create a Question2.java file and finish the following tasks: Task 1. a) Create a 1D array of integers to store 50 integers. b) Store values from 0 to 49 in the array you just created. c) Create a new String Object using no-arg constructor. d) Using for loop to add the array elements one by one to the String (one per loop iteration) Hint: to append an element to a String, use the + operator. e) Output the String on the console. Record and display a run-time it took to append all integers to the String (record run-time of 1.d.)). Please submit a screenshot. The screenshot should match the following example: 012345678910111213141516171819202122232425262728293031323334353637383940414243444546474849 it took 196708 nanoseconds to append 50 integers to the String.| Hint: You can use the following statements to record run-time. long begin, end, time; // we will measure time it took begin = System.nanoTime(); //we measure in nanoseconds. // put…
Answer this Java OOP question below: Discuss the challenges and benefits of using multiple levels of inheritance in a class hierarchy. How can deep inheritance structures impact the maintainability and readability of code?
Answer the Java OOP question below: Explain the relationship between a superclass and a subclass. How do the principles of encapsulation and abstraction play a role in this relationship? In your experience, how do you decide what should be included in a superclass versus a subclass? Share an example where a well-defined superclass-subclass hierarchy improved your code.
