Introduction to Cloud Computing
What is Cloud Computing? Types of Cloud Services
Cloud computing is the The main types of cloud
delivery of computing services are SaaS (Software
services, such as storage, as a Service), PaaS (Platform
databases, and software, as a Service), and IaaS
over the internet. This allows (Infrastructure as a Service).

efficiency, and accessibility.
Key Features
The key features of cloud computing include scalability, flexibility,
cost efficiency, and accessibility.
Why Use Python for Cloud
Development?
1 Easy to Learn and Use 2 Rich Libraries and
Frameworks
Python is known for its
simplicity and readability, Python has a vast

development.
3 Integration with Cloud Platforms

Python provides seamless integration with major cloud
platforms like AWS, GCP, and Azure, allowing for efficient
cloud infrastructure automation and API development.

Developing the Application
Backend with Python
1 Choose a Web Framework

Utilize a Python web framework like Flask or Django to build the backend.
2 Design RESTful APIs

Use Flask-RESTful or Django REST framework to create robust APIs.
3 Integrate with Cloud Storage

Connect to cloud-based storage options, such as S3 or Google Cloud
Storage.
4 Deploy Serverless Functions

Leverage serverless computing platforms like AWS Lambda or Google
Cloud Functions.

1 Install Elastic Beanstalk CLI
Install the AWS Elastic Beanstalk command-line interface.
2 Configure the Environment

Use eb init to set up your Elastic Beanstalk environment.
3 Deploy the Application

Deploy your Python application using eb create and eb deploy.
4 Monitor the Application

Check the status and logs of your application on the AWS Console.
