General Information

The purpose of this assignment is to prepare a 1000 words report that will detail comparison and contrast between two cloud service providers and their services. By doing this assignment, you will acquire good understanding of available cloud service providers and their services which will help you to determine appropriate services for developing an smart application.

What do you need to do?

• The assignment require you to do the following -

• Investigate and identify all the available cloud service providers and list them.

• Select one of the cloud service providers from your list and learn about the services it provides. If necessary, create a trial account and use all the different services it offers. Take screenshots to record some of those services while using them.

This section must have comparison and contrast between Bluemix and your chosen service provider for followings:

Plagiarism Checking Information

It is VERY important that you do not copy content directly from either the text or Internet resources: this assignment is to be in your own words. You will lose marks if you do not use your own words! Actual plagiarism will result in the instigation of the student misconduct process.

On uploading your assignment for the first time you will be able to immediately see your similarity score. However, a 24 hour delay exists for the release of similarity scores for the submission of successive items (drafts).

To be clear, the delay will not apply to your first draft which will receive a Turnitin similarity score as soon as possible.

This mandatory delay was implemented by Turnitin to minimise misuse of the similaritychecking service by students who were simply modifying their submissions to avoid match detection and without citing sources appropriately.
