Title: CLOUD%20OPERATING%20SYSTEM%20-%20EYEOS
1TOPIC
- CLOUD OPERATING SYSTEM - EYEOS
2Lets first talk about a CLOUD OS
- A cloud OS simply refers to an operating system
(or an interface filled with a complete suite of
desktop applications) that resides on the Web and
you can access to it anytime, anywhere as long as
you have an Internet connection.
3OPERATING SYSTEM
- Its the software that enables the interaction
between user and system - Cloud can be installed and used together with
other operating systems, or can act as a
standalone operating system. When used as a
standalone operating system, hardware
requirements are relatively low.

17FEATURES EYEOS
- eyeOS is its small file size and ease of
installation. - EyeOS is a free and open source cloud OS software
that you can install on your own Web server. - From Cloud the user can quickly boot into the
main OS, because Cloud continues booting the main
OS in the background. - Boot in few seconds.
18facts!!
- Combining a browser with a basic operating system
also allows the use of cloud computing, in which
applications and data "live and run" on the
Internet instead of on the hard drive.
19VERSIONS OF EYEOS.
- eyeOS version 0.6.0 on August 1, 2005 .
- eyeOS 1.0 on June 4, 2007.
- eyeOS 1.1 on July 2, 2007.
- eyeOS 1.2 after few maonths .
- eyeOS 1.5 Gala on January 15, 2008.
- eyeOS 1.6 on April 25, 2008.
- eyeOS 1.8 Lars on January 7, 2009 .
20Changes with versions.
- The first publicly available eyeOS version was
released on August 1, 2005 as eyeOS 0.6.0
in Barcelona (Spain). At the time, it greatly
participated in creating the definition of a web
operating system and acted as a concept. Quickly,
a worldwide community of developers took part in
the project and helped improve it by translating,
testing and developing it.
21EYEOS 1.0
- After two years of development, the eyeOS
Team published eyeOS 1.0 (on June 4, 2007).
Compared with previous versions, eyeOS 1.0
introduced a complete reorganization of the code
and some new web technologies, like eyeSoft,
a portage-based web software installation system.
Moreover, eyeOS also included the eyeOS Toolkit,
a set of libraries allowing easy and fast
development of new web Applications
22EYEOS 1.1
- With the release of eyeOS 1.1 on July 2, 2007,
eyeOS changed its license and migrated from
GNU GPL Version 2 to Version 3.
Combining a browser with a basic operating system
also allows the use of cloud computing, in which
applications and data "live and run" on the
Internet instead of on the hard drive.
With the release of eyeOS 1.1 on July 2, 2007,
eyeOS changed its license and migrated from
GNU GPL Version 2 to Version 3.
23EYEOS 1.2
- Version 1.2 was released just a few months after
the 1.1 version and integrated full compatibility
with Microsoft Word files.
24EYEOS 1.5 GALA
- eyeOS 1.5 Gala was released on January 15, 2008.
This version is the first to support
both Microsoft Office and OpenOffice.org file
formats for documents, presentations and
spreadsheets. It also has the ability to import
and export documents in both formats using server
side scripting.
25EYEOS 1.6
- eyeOS 1.6 was released on April 25, 2008 and
included many improvements such as
synchronization with local computers, drag and
drop, a mobile version and more
26EYEOS 1.8 Lars
- eyeOS 1.8 Lars was released on January 7, 2009
and featured a completely rewritten file manager
and a new sound API to develop media rich
applications. Later, on April 1, 2009 1.8.5 was
released with a new default theme and some
rewritten apps such as the Word Processor or the
Address Book. On July 13, 2009 1.8.6 was released
with an interface for the iPhone and a new
version of eyeMail with support for POP3 and IMAP.
27BRIEFING EYEOS

29 STRUCTURE AND API
30- eyeOS is an open source web
desktop following the cloud computing concept
that leverages collaboration and communication
among users. It is mainly written in PHP, XML,
and JavaScript. It acts as a platform for web
applications written using the eyeOS Toolkit.
31- For developers, eyeOS provides the eyeOS Toolkit,
a set of libraries and functions to develop
applications for eyeOS. Using the
integrated Portage-based eyeSoft system, one can
create their own repository for eyeOS and
distribute applications through it.
32- eyeOS uses XML files to store information. This
makes it simple for a user to set up on the
server, as it requires zero configuration other
than the account information for the first user,
making it simple to deploy. To avoid bottlenecks
that flat files present, each user's information
and settings are stored in different files,
preventing resource starvation from occurring.
33The Pros and Cons of Cloud Computing
- Lower-Cost Computers for Users
- Because the application runs in the cloud,
not on the desktop PC, that desktop PC doesnt
need the processing power or hard disk space
demanded by traditional desktop software. Hence
the client computers in cloud computing can be
lower priced, with smaller hard disks, less
memory, more efficient processors, and the like.
34Improved Performance
Improved Performance
- A cloud computing system will boot up faster and
run faster, because theyll have fewer programs
and processes loaded into memory.
35Lower IT Infrastructure Costs
- The IT department could also see lower costs
from the adoption of the cloud computing
paradigm. Instead of investing in larger numbers
of more powerful servers, the IT staff can use
the computing power of the cloud to supplement or
replace internal computing resources.
36Fewer Maintenance Issues
- Speaking of maintenance costs, cloud
computing greatly reduces both hardware and
software maintenance for organizations of all
sizes
37Increased Computing Power
- This is an obvious one. When youre tied into a
cloud computing system, you have the power of the
entire cloud at your disposal. Youre no longer
limited to what a single desktop PC can do, but
can now perform supercomputing-like tasks
utilizing the power of thousands of computers and
servers. In other words, you can attempt greater
tasks in the cloud than you can on your desktop.
38Improved Compatibility Between Operating Systems
- In the cloud, operating systems simply dont
matter. You can connect your Windows computer to
the cloud and share documents with computers
running Apples Mac OS, Linux, or UNIX. In the
cloud, the data matters, not the operating system.
39Cloud Computing Disadvantages
40Requires a Constant Internet Connection
- Cloud computing is, quite simply, impossible if
you cant connect to the Internet. Because you
use the Internet to connect to both your
applications and documents, if you dont have an
Internet connection, you cant access anything,
even your own documents.
41Can Be Slow
- Even on a fast connection, web-based applications
can sometimes be slower than accessing a similar
software program on your desktop PC. Thats
because everything about the program, from the
interface to the document youre working on, has
to be sent back and forth from your computer to
the computers in the cloud
42Stored Data Might Not Be Secure
- With cloud computing, all your data is stored on
the cloud. Thats all well and good, but how
secure is the cloud? Can other, unauthorized
users gain access to your confidential data?
