Abstract. Provided certain obstacles are overcome, we believe Cloud Computing has the potential to transform a large part of the IT industry, making software even more attractive as a service and shaping the way IT hardware is designed and purchased. Developers with innovative ideas for new interactive Internet services no longer require the large capital outlays in hardware to deploy their service or the human expense to operate it. They need not be concerned about over-provisioning for a service …show more content…

Abstract. The article discusses cloud computing, examining the shift in computing that is occurring in 2008 from locally installed programs to the computer cloud. The term computer cloud, also known as "Internet as platform," infers that the locus of computation occurs at data centers connected through the Internet, in places near and far from the user. Topics include the surrender of control of computing resources to third-party service providers, the client-server model of the 1980's, and the hub-and-spoke model of time-sharing systems.

Lately, a new computing paradigm has emerged: “Cloud Computing”. It seems to be promoted as heavily as the “Grid” was a few years ago, causing broad discussions on the differences between Grid and Cloud Computing. The first contribution of this paper is thus a detailed discussion about the different characteristics of Grid Computing and Cloud Computing. This technical classification allows for a well-founded discussion of the business opportunities of the Cloud Computing paradigm. To this end, this paper first presents a business model framework for Clouds. It subsequently reviews and classifies current Cloud offerings in the light of this framework. Finally, this paper discusses challenges that have to be mastered in order to make the Cloud vision come true and points to promising areas for future
