BaaS

“Where do you keep your backups and when did you last test a restore?”

DRaaS

“What would happen in case of any disaster and where do you fail over to?”

Security Cloud

“What sits in front of that app that protects it if any attacker starts exploiting? And what if your IT person double clicks on a software and it turns out to be virus”

EFSS

“How do staff share files, and what happens when their PC storage is full?”

SFTP

“Where are you archiving your files that you rarely need in a year?”

Object Storage

“Are you utilizing the VM storage for your app files? Why wasting money while everyone is using object storage?”

Public Cloud

Shared infrastructure, tenants isolated.

Root Volume

The disk the OS boots from. Like C Drive.

Data Volume

A separate disk for data. Like D Drive.

Image

A saved template of a machine. Build or restore from it.

Public IP

Internet knows Public IP 202.141.239.210 and NOT multinet.com.pk.

Virtualization

We bought a physical server in USD 20k and split into 50 VMs. The hypervisor is the software that splits it.

RPO / RTO

RPO: how much data you can lose, measured like 24 hours. RTO: how long you can be down, measured like 4 hours.

BaaS

A second copy, kept for recovery.

“Protecting a copy, or working on it daily?”

FTP / SFTP

Machine-to-machine transfer. SFTP is encrypted.

“Machines on a schedule, or people?”

Controlled Dropbox. For people.

“Do staff open and share these outside the office?”

Web hosting

Rent the space and web server. cPanel or Plesk to manage it.

Static site

Fixed files. Everyone sees the same. Fast, cheap, little to attack.

Dynamic site

Built on request from a database. Logins, carts, portals.

CMS

Publish without code. Always dynamic. WordPress leads by a mile.

Domain

Multinet.com.pk is a domain. Mycloud.multinet.com.pk is a subdomain.

DNS server

Turns the name into an IP — Multinet -> 202.141.239.210

SSL

Encrypts Data so if any attacker captures your packet from a compromised router, it looks like this ##%576

SAN vs NAS

SAN, disk with VM. NAS, still a disk with VM but looks like attached extra drive like Z Drive.

Cores

Software needs processing whose power comes from cores. Like in calculator 1+1 is done by cores.

RAM

It holds some of the data from storage which is most urgent required. When VM is off, it gets erased.

Storage

Even if VM is off, the disk keeps the data safe.

HDD vs SSD vs NVMe

HDD: cheapest, for backups. SSD: our standard. NVMe: fastest, for databases.

Internet for VM

In Mbps, unlimited transfer, dedicated public IPs.

GPU and VRAM

GPU: AI workloads. VRAM: memory on the card, and the hard limit. Model doesn't fit 24 GB, model doesn't run on that GPU having 24 GB.
