This article describes the main services provided by the most popular cloud infrastructures currently in use. The systems presented in this article are either public clouds Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure and IBM Bluemix or private clouds OpenStack, OpenNebula and Eucalyptus. The formers provide a variety of services that implement all the three main cloud service models (IaaS, PaaS and SaaS), while the latters are focused on the IaaS model, as they provide services for the management of large pools of processing, storage, and networking resources in a data center, by exploiting a variety of virtualization techniques.

Abstract
This article describes the main services provided by the most popular cloud infrastructures currently in use. The systems presented in this article are either public clouds Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure and IBM Bluemix or private clouds OpenStack, OpenNebula and Eucalyptus. The formers provide a variety of services that implement all the three main cloud service models (IaaS, PaaS and SaaS), while the latters are focused on the IaaS model, as they provide services for the management of large pools of processing, storage, and networking resources in a data center, by exploiting a variety of virtualization techniques.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
