Description	214In the early days of computing, mainframe computers dominated the era of data processing until the advent of personal computers (PCs). Mainframe and minicomputers were housed in the data centers. Computing prowess of mainframe computers was accessed through the use of dumb terminals connected to mainframe computers via dial-up modems and dedicated network connections. Of course, the advent of PCs morphed the computing paradigm into local area networks (LANs), thus minimizing the role of mainframe and minicomputers. In the last decade, PC hardware has acquired processing capabilities of mainframes, and the networking hardware and software is capable of providing more robust and reliable connectivity. The components of cloud computing architecture are hardware and software, required for the delivery of cloud computing services. Furthermore, these components of a cloud computing architecture are segmented into front-end platforms or cloud clients, back-end platforms such as servers and storage devices, and a path connecting the front-end to the back-end to access the cloud-based services as illustrated in Figure 15.1. This path is the network, which can be either the public (Internet) or a private network. The role of the network is to provide network services. Figure 15.1 Cloud computing architecture.
