Proposed Cloud Architecture (5 pages needed from step 1 to step 5)
Final Report Evaluating AWS and Azure Providers (5 pages (step1 to5) + 2 pages from step 6 to 7 = the final report would be 7 pages), also you will find the template for the final report is on the last pages
Below are the instructions
Since you have become familiar with the foundations of cloud computing technologies, along with their risks and the legal and compliance issues, you will now explore cloud offerings of popular cloud providers and evaluate them to recommend one that would be the best fit for BallotOnline.
In this project, you will first learn about networking in the cloud and auxiliary cloud services provided by cloud vendors. Next, you will explore cloud computing trends, best practices, and issues involved in migrating IT deployments to the cloud, as well as typical architectures of cloud deployments. Then, you will apply your findings to propose a general architecture for BallotOnline’s cloud deployment to best address the company’s business requirements.
Once you have selected a deployment architecture, you will research two leading cloud vendors: Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure. Exploring and comparing the tools available for application migration will enable you to recommend a vendor to the executives in your final report. The final deliverable is a written report to BallotOnline management, describing the results of your research and recommending the cloud deployment architecture and the vendor for its deployment, with justification.
Your final report should demonstrate that you understand the IT needs of the organization as you evaluate and select cloud providers. The report should include your insights on the appropriate direction to take to handle the company’s IT business needs. You will also be assessed on the ability to integrate relevant risk, policy, and compliance consideration into the recommendations, as well as the clarity of your writing and a demonstration of logical, step-by-step decision making to formulate and justify your ideas.
Check the Project 3 FAQ thread in the discussion area for any last-minute updates or clarifications about the project.
Step 1: Research Networking and Auxiliary Services in the Cloud
The executives at BallotOnline have been impressed with your research on cloud computing thus far. While there are a variety of cloud providers, BallotOnline is considering using Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure, two of the top providers in the market. BallotOnline’s executives want you to help determine which would be the best provider for the organization.
You will start with learning about internet networking basics and cloud networking. You will also research many cloud services that cloud providers make available to their customers to help them take full advantage of cloud service and deployment models.
Step 2: Research Cloud Trends, Best Practices, and Migration Issues
The cloud computing revolution is redefining ways that companies of all sizes use information technology. The cloud landscape shifts rapidly, and current trends reflect this rapid pace of change. You likely got an idea about this in the last step when you conducted research on cloud architecture. Now, continue gathering information for your final report by assessing:
In the Discussion: Cloud Trends and Migration Issues forum, post your findings and discuss them with your colleagues.
In the next step, you will propose an architecture to use for the company’s cloud deployment.
Step 3: Research Typical Architectures of Cloud Deployments
In the previous step, you considered best practices and trends in the cloud industry. Next, you will have to look at the kinds of architectures needed for cloud.
Because most elements of cloud deployments are implemented in a virtualized environment controlled by software, the degree of freedom in defining your deployment of cloud reference models is unprecedented. You can define the number of virtual servers required and the configuration, and even change them dynamically as needed. You can also define your virtual local area networks (LANs) and subnets, and place servers in them to implement network security requirements.
The basic cloud deployment components are cloud consumer, cloud provider, and cloud carrier, with cloud brokers and auditor as possible additions.
Typical cloud architectures of cloud deployments vary from single server (suitable for proof-of-concept engagements) and multiserver architectures with various servers carrying different software components and occupying different security zones, to geographically dispersed deployments to achieve high availability, resilience, and speed of delivery. There are several issues to consider when selecting a server architecture, including cost, scalability, performance, and use of management.
For this step, research the typical architectures of cloud deployments and begin to consider what might be a good fit for BallotOnline. Discuss your findings and thoughts with your colleagues in the Discussion: Cloud Architectures forum.
In the next step, you will continue research, this time on trends in cloud computing as well as issues that can arise during data migration.
Step 4: Propose Cloud Architecture for BallotOnline Deployment
Now that you have looked into cloud architectures, in this step, you will propose the cloud deployment architecture for BallotOnline, applying the knowledge of typical architectural elements of cloud deployment from the project’s initial step. You will also consider trends and migration issues from a previous step. Your recommendation should consider the company’s business requirements.
Recall that the company has an existing web application that it wants to move to the cloud, and also that the company wants to expand its business to other parts of the world. In earlier projects, you learned about and analyzed the IT business requirements for BallotOnline. Among them were demands for application and data security, data encryption, and separation for deployments overseas. Also, the application should handle load peaks during election times in different regions.
Specific technical requirements state that BallotOnline is a web application, written using the popular open-source LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) software suite and the PHP application.
Step 5: Research AWS
You’ve described your proposed architecture and included a diagram to provide leadership a way to envision the system. Now, it’s time to look closely at the leading cloud providers to see if their services will fit BallotOnline’s needs.
Each cloud provider provides a unique profile of services, so it is good practice to compare cloud vendors and evaluate their reliability, performance, ease of use, cost, security and compliance measures. As more providers enter the marketplace, many will specialize on specific needs and use cases, making this evaluation even more critical.
In this step, you will explore AWS and assess the feasibility of this platform for deploying the architecture proposed in the previous step. You should also consider issues related to AWS Pricing.
Based on your research, determine to what degree AWS supports the elements of the BallotOnline business and technical requirements.
Share your thoughts with your colleagues in the Discussion: Amazon Web Services Feasibility forum. In the following step, you will do the same for Microsoft Azure.
Step 6: Research Microsoft Azure
Now that you have had a chance to research AWS, it’s time to explore Microsoft Azure, another cloud provider that could be used to deploy the proposed architecture. You should also consider issues related to Microsoft Azure pricing.
Based on your research, determine to what degree Microsoft Azure supports the elements of the BallotOnline business and technical requirements. Share your thoughts with your colleagues in the Discussion: Microsoft Azure Feasibility forum.
Now that you have completed research on the cloud providers, in the next steps you will work on proof of concepts for each provider.
With your research complete, you will now deploy a simple one-page PHP application to the AWS cloud. It will allow you to explore deployment methods, ease of use, provisioning speed, etc., for the Amazon cloud.
As you may have already discovered in your research on AWS, it makes a cloud migration tool called Elastic Beanstalk available for customers to migrate their existing applications into the AWS cloud. We will use this tool to deploy your AWS proof of concept (POC).Proof of Concept (POC)
Proof of concept (POC), also known as proof of principle, is a prototype or demonstration of a particular idea or method developed for the purpose of verifying that the idea or method is viable for real-world applications.
Follow the steps in the AWS lab instructions to complete your AWS POC.
In the dropbox below, upload the URL linking to your application running in the AWS portal.
Now that your AWS POC is complete, you can proceed with a similar POC deployment for the Microsoft Azure cloud.
Follow the steps in the Azure lab instructions to complete your Azure POC.
In the dropbox below, upload the URL linking to your application running in the Azure portal.
You are ready for the last step: writing the final report with recommendations on the cloud providers for the BallotOnline executives.

1.
In this chapter we have looked at the point location problem with pre- processing. We have not looked at the single shot problem, where the subdivision and the query point are given at the same time, and we have no special preprocessing to speed up the searches. In this exercise and some of the following ones, we have a look at such problems.
Given a simple polygon P with n vertices and a query point q, here is an algorithm to determine whether q lies in P. Consider the ray ρ := {(qx +λ,qy) : λ > 0} (this is the horizontal ray starting in q and going rightwards). Determine for every edge e of P whether it intersects ρ. If the number of intersecting edges is odd, then q ∈ P, otherwise q à∈ P.
Prove that this algorithm is correct, and explain how to deal with degen- erate cases. (One degenerate case is when ρ intersects an endpoint of an edge. Are there other special cases?) What is the running time of the algorithm?
2. Suppose you are given an n-vertex simple polygon, P. Describe how to build an efficient data structure for determining in O(log n) time whether a query point, q, is inside of P or not. What is the space and preprocessing time for your data structure?
3. The ray shooting problem occurs in computer graphics (see Chapter 8). A 2-dimensional version can be given as follows: Store a set S of n non-crossing line segments such that one can quickly answer queries of the type: “Given a query ray ρ—a ray is a half-line starting at some point—find the first segment in S intersected by ρ.” (We leave it to you to define the behavior for degenerate cases.) In this exercise, we look at vertical ray shooting, where the query ray must be a vertical ray pointing upwards. Only the starting point need be specified in such a query. Give a data structure for the vertical ray shooting problem for a set S of n non-crossing line segments in general position. Bound the query time and storage requirement of your data structure. What is the preprocessing time?
