Cloud computing

3.1 Understanding Cloud Computing (IBM, 2014 [17]) Cloud computing, often referred to as simply ‘the cloud’ is the delivery of on-demand computing resources everything from applications to data centres over the internet on a pay-for-use basis. Cloud computing is the practice of using a network of remote servers hosted on the Internet to store, manage, and process data, rather than a local server or a personal computer. The salient characteristics of cloud computing based on the definitions…

environment, cloud computing and virtualization are the cost effective technologies that are striving in order to maximize speed and agility of IT operations. Cloud computing is a network-based platform for sharing computations and resources. Cloud computing is based on a group of virtualised computing resources. Virtualization is defined as the ability to run multiple operating systems on a single system and share underlying hardware resources. Based on virtualization, cloud computing allows…

Abstract Cloud computing is a network based model to provide convenient, on demand and pay per user access to a set of shared resources. Currently cloud computing is in early stages and facing the threats and risks which include security, data leakage, insecure interface and inside attacks. Concept of cloud computing is not new for computer users; it has been in use for decades. In early days of computing a single computer was shared by many users (companies). Another analogy for cloud computing…

surrounding the case Cloud computing come to be a more convenient method of software operation within the businesses. the case is given an example which is Amazon by using cloud computing at the marketplace. Amazon use the Web services division (AWS) to get data storage and computing power flexibility. This application supports Amazon to get a large amount of computing resources. Based on client provided data, the AWS can allocate, separate and arrange resources., Cloud computing bring a lot of…

promotes flexibility, availability, and scalability of computer resources at low running costs. However, just like all technologies, cloud computing too has various challenges. These include limitations to integration and customization, performance risks, reliability and interoperability, and security and privacy challenges (Elmonem, Nasr, & Geith, 2016). Cloud Computing within the Healthcare Sector Traditionally, there has been an underutilization of technology within the healthcare sector…

INTRODUCTION TO CLOUD COMPUTING The running generation of world, cloud computing has become the most powerful, chief and also lightning technology. The term Cloud refers to a Network or Internet. In other words, we can say that Cloud is something, which is present at remote location. Cloud can provide services over network, i.e., on public networks or on private networks, i.e., WAN, LAN or VPN. Applications such as e-mail, web conferencing, customer relationship management (CRM), all run in…

Cloud Computing Strategy Cloud computing has been gradually increasing in usage and capabilities over the past few years and becoming ever more integrated with many companies business plans. With little doubt cloud computing has become a mainstream utility that has a tool most organizations can take advantage of. Zeitler (2014) stated that cloud expenditures will increase by 25% sparking a striking increase in cloud data centers worldwide, totaling a 100 billon dollar market. The advantage of…

ABSTRACT: In cloud computing, load balancing is one of the key issues. Load is a measure of the amount of work that a computation system performs which can be classified as CPU load, memory capacity and network load. Load balancing is the process of apportioning the load among various nodes of a distributed system to improve both resource utilization and job response time. Load balancing ensures that every node in the network does approximately equal amount of work (as per their capacity) at…

not using his toys. So, Children keep all their toys in one big box and use them. This common big box is cloud computing. 2) I believe that “Maintenance Costs will be lower with cloud computing”. While moving from a private network to a cloud based network, the initial setup costs will be high. The cost required for setting up IT can never be reduced. But once the setup is completed, the cloud based company will be responsible for providing computational capabilities along with infrastructure…

industrial manufacturing. Thus Green Computing has become an innovative way on how technology and ecology converge together. Nowadays, people prefer Network-based computing to an in-house based computing. The concept of cloud computing has dramatically changed the classical method of computation. Cloud computing and Green computing are two most emergent areas in Information Communication Technology (ICT) with immense applications in the entire globe. Cloud Computing refers to ‘renting…
