OCI Architecture: ------------------------------ Region : it is a physical location of the oracle where the data centers are present, Localized geographic Areas consist of one or more availability zone. Availability Domains(AD) : AD are one or more fault-tolerant domains(data centers) inside a Region that connect with each other by low latency and high bandwidth ADs are isolated from each other, fault-tolerant, unlikely to fail simultaneously, and physical infrastructure is not shared between the Ads. Fault Domains (FD): grouping of hardware and infrastructure within an AD to provide anti-affinity, these are the logical data centers. Each AD has three Fault Domains(FD), logical Datacenter within an AD Resources placed in different FDs will not share a single point of hardware failure In any region, resources in at most ONE fault domain are being actively changed at any point in time, this means that availability problem...
5. Characteristics of Cloud Computing On-Demand Self Service No Human interaction Is needed for resource provisioning The resource can be provisioned with a click of a button Provisioning is available 24/7 Broad Network Access Resources can be accessed from Anywhere using the network Ideally high broadband No physical access is required Resource Pooling Physical resources are shared between customers The Cloud's backbone decides which physical resource to allocate for a customer's virtual services Some advanced cloud services allow for physical resource separati...
