DATE: 2 1 / 0 2 / 2 5 OPENSTACK, EUCALYPTUS, OPEN NEBULA WITH
ROLE-BASED ACCESS CONTROL

AIM:

To create a Cloud Organization in AWS/Google Cloud/or any equivalent

Open-Source cloud software's like Open stack, Eucalyptus, Open Nebula with Role-
based access control.

PROCEDURE:

STEP 1: Creating a cloud organization with role-based access control involves setting
up a hierarchy of users, groups, and roles to manage permissions effectively.
STEP 2: One way to create a cloud organization with role-based access control in
AWS is done using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM).
STEP 3: We can adapt the concepts to other cloud providers or open-source cloud
software with similar capabilities.

SOURCE CODE:

CREATE A COST-MODEL FOR A WEB
APPLICATION USING VARIOUS SERVICES AND DO
DATE: 0 7 / 0 3 / 2 5 COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS

AIM:

To create a cost model for a web application using cloud services and perform
cost-benefit analysis

PROCEDURE:

STEP 1: Creating a cost model for a web application using cloud services involves
estimating the expenses associated with various components and services utilized in
the application.
STEP 2: Building a cost model for a typical web application using a combination of
AWS (Amazon Web Services) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services is
considered.
STEP 3: Specific pricing information may change over time, and we need to check the
respective cloud providers for up-to-date pricing.

SOURCE CODE:

Rupees

cost to potential revenue or savings)
20. # For simplicity, let's assume a fixed revenue
or savings value in INR
21. revenue_or_savings_inr = 75000 # Example
revenue or savings in Indian Rupees
22. # Determine if the cost is justified based on
the revenue or savings
23. if total_cost_inr <= revenue_or_savings_inr:
24. print("The cost of the services is justified.")
25. else:
26. print("The cost of the services exceeds the
potential revenue or savings.")

CREATE ALERTS FOR USAGE OF CLOUD
RESOURCES
DATE: 28/03/25

AIM:

To create alerts for usage of cloud resources.

PROCEDURE:

1. Define Metrics: Identify the key metrics you want to monitor for your cloud
resources, such as CPU utilization, memory usage, disk I/O, network traffic,
etc.
2. Set Thresholds: Determine threshold levels for each metric that indicate when
an alert should be triggered. For example, you might set a threshold of 90%
CPU utilization to trigger a CPU alert.
3. Monitor Metrics: Continuously monitor the selected metrics using monitoring
tools provided by the cloud platform or third-party monitoring services.
4. Check Thresholds: Regularly compare the current metric values to the
predefined thresholds.
5. Trigger Alerts: If any metric value exceeds its threshold, trigger an alert.
6. Notify Users: Send notifications to relevant stakeholders (e.g., system
administrators, DevOps team) via email, SMS, or other communication
channels, informing them of the alert and providing details about the resource
and the metric that triggered it.
7. Take Action: Depending on the severity of the alert and the established
procedures, take appropriate actions to address the issue. This could involve
scaling resources, reallocating resources, investigating the root cause of the
problem, or executing remediation scripts.
8. Resolve Alert: Once the issue has been addressed, mark the alert as resolved
and update any incident documentation or status boards.
9. Review Alerts: Periodically review alert history and patterns to identify
recurring issues, adjust thresholds if necessary, and optimize the alerting
system for better efficiency and accuracy.
10. Document Process: Document the alerting process, including the metrics
monitored, thresholds set, notification procedures, and response actions. Ensure
that all team members are familiar with the alerting process and know how to
respond to alerts effectively.

CREATE BILLING ALERTS FOR YOUR CLOUD
ORGANIZATION
DATE: 11/04/25

AIM:

To Create billing alerts for a cloud organization with suitable algorithm, source
code, output, result.

PROCEDURE:

1. Identify Thresholds: Determine the spending thresholds at which you want to

receive alerts. These thresholds could be based on your budget, expected usage,
or any predefined limits.
2. Select Alert Mechanism: Choose the mechanism for generating alerts.
Common options include email notifications, SMS alerts, integration with chat
platforms (e.g., Slack), or using a dedicated billing alerting service provided by
your cloud provider.
3. Set Up Billing Alerts: Configure billing alerts using the billing management
console or APIs provided by your cloud provider. Specify the spending
thresholds and the alerting mechanism to be used.
4. Define Recipients: Specify the email addresses, phone numbers, or other
contact details for the recipients who should receive the alerts. Ensure that the
recipients are authorized to view and manage billing information for your cloud
organization.
5. Test Alerts: Test the billing alerting system to ensure that alerts are triggered
correctly and notifications are delivered to the designated recipients. Verify
that the thresholds are set up accurately and that alerts are triggered when
spending exceeds the specified limits.
6. Monitor Usage: Regularly monitor your cloud usage and spending to stay
informed about your organization's resource consumption and associated costs.
Review billing reports and dashboards provided by your cloud provider to track
spending trends and identify any unexpected or unusual usage patterns.
7. Adjust Thresholds: Periodically review and adjust the billing thresholds based
on changes in your organization's budget, resource requirements, or usage
patterns. Ensure that the thresholds are aligned with your organization's
financial goals and risk tolerance.
8. Document Process: Document the billing alerting process, including the

15
 thresholds, alert mechanisms, recipients, and any relevant policies or
procedures. Ensure that all stakeholders are aware of the billing alerting system
and know how to respond to alerts effectively.

COMPARE CLOUD COST FOR A SIMPLE WEB
APPLICATION ACROSS AWS, AZURE AND GCP
DATE: 0 2 / 0 5 / 2 5 AND SUGGEST THE BEST ONE

AIM:

To compare the cloud costs across different providers (AWS, Azure, and GCP)
for a simple web application.

PROCEDURE:

1. Identify Requirements: Define the basic requirements of your web

application, including compute resources, storage, and data transfer needs.
2. Research Pricing: Gather pricing information from AWS, Azure, and GCP for
the required resources, including virtual machines, storage, and data transfer.
3. Calculate Monthly Costs: Estimate the monthly costs for your web
application on each cloud platform based on the pricing information gathered.
Consider different usage scenarios (e.g., baseline, peak) and any potential
discounts or promotions.
4. Factor in Additional Services: Take into account any additional services or
features required for your web application, such as database services, content
delivery networks (CDNs), or monitoring tools, and compare the costs across
cloud providers.
5. Consider Support and SLAs: Evaluate the support options and service level
agreements (SLAs) offered by each cloud provider, as well as the associated
costs, and factor these into your cost comparison.
6. Assess Flexibility and Scalability: Consider the flexibility and scalability of
each cloud platform in terms of adjusting resources up or down based on
demand, and assess the potential impact on costs.
7. Account for Data Transfer Costs: Take into account any data transfer costs
between different regions or zones within each cloud provider's network, as
well as data transfer costs to and from the internet.
8. Evaluate Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): Compare the total cost of
ownership (TCO) for running your web application on each cloud platform,
including both direct costs (e.g., infrastructure, services) and indirect costs
(e.g., management, maintenance).
9. Assess Vendor Lock-in: Evaluate the potential for vendor lock-in with each
cloud provider and consider the implications for future migration or

18
 interoperability with other services or platforms.
10. Make a Decision: Based on the cost comparison, as well as other factors such
as performance, reliability, and ease of use, make an informed decision about
the best cloud provider for your simple web application.
