Cloud Computing Explorer – Virtual Infrastructure

Cloud computing delivers on-demand computing resources—servers, storage, networking—over the internet, enabling businesses to scale without owning physical hardware. This interactive explorer lets you provision virtual machines, route traffic through a load balancer, and watch auto-scaling add or remove instances based on simulated demand. You will gain practical insight into how modern infrastructure-as-a-service platforms manage resources elastically.

What you can do in this simulation

Spin up and terminate virtual machine instances with a single click
Route simulated HTTP traffic through a configurable load balancer
Trigger auto-scaling by adjusting the simulated request load
Monitor CPU and memory utilization per instance in live charts
Switch between on-demand and reserved capacity pricing models

Concepts covered

cloud computing · virtual machines · load balancing · auto-scaling · IaaS · elasticity
