A Beginner Question Please!
-
Dear all, This is my first message to the forum. I'm a beginner to developing cloud computing apps. I have a small question please. I understood that in order to develop a Cloud Computing application, I need to develop it using PaaS (like Google app engine, Amazon web services or Microsoft Azure) and I knew that there are some open source frameworks like Hadoop or Eucalyptus, that could help me develop a parallel application that would run easily on the cloud. My question is, is what I understood correct? Is there any other way to developing Cloud applications? I'd be grateful if you could help me. Thanks and best regards, Nermine Naguib

Of course Richard the first thing I've done even before sending this question was googling it! but I only could find the methods I mentioned in my message, I just wanted to make sure that I understood them correctly and that I didn't miss anything else because I'm required to make a report about all the alternative techniques of cloud applications development. I have no one to ask... I know no one with experience in cloud computing and I was waiting for a more professional reply from people with more experience in this field. Thanks anyway... although honestly I didn't like the way you replied to me.

I think perhaps you misunderstand what the CodeProject is about. You posted a question asking for information about tools and techniques for Cloud computing. After four days with no response you posted a follow up. The lack of response means one thing: nobody on the site has the information you are looking for so you need to go and do some research for yourself. I'm sorry you don't like the answer, but everybody who gives advice here does so in their own time and at no cost to the people who ask the questions. You could always try a professional Cloud consultant, you will get a better answer but it will not be free (or even cheap).

I'd like to thank you for your reply and apologize for misinterpreting your first message... I love CodeProject since I was in the first year at college and maybe that's why I was very happy to find the cloud computing forum and sent my question here in the first place :) thanks again for trying to help!

Well not necessarily, you could code your own framework from the ground up ( X| ). Jk, find a system that you feel comfortable with and work with it. Google's framework and Microsoft's Azure platform are good starts. I think the latest Linux based cloud frameworks are still immature for commercial use. Actually, in all honesty, if you take away the bells and whistles you could build your own framework. The abstraction of the propagation of resources between platforms into a "cloud" is easy enough to code. I'd recommend sticking with a tried and tested system for business and work related development, but the aforementioned could be a fun code project.
