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

A. Encryption Concept Encryption is the process of using a formula called the cryptographic algorithm to translate plain text into an incomprehensible code and later convert it back to plain text [3]. The text relies mainly on the use of a numeric value, called the key, which is part of the encryption algorithm. B. Cloud Computing Concept Cloud computing has become part of users' lifestyles because sources such as data storage, and computer systems are accessible as needed through networks that offer various computing services that do not require resources located on customers' personal computers, such as space resources for data storage[4] . Cloud-computing architecture using four cloud-deployment models: private clouds, public clouds, hybrid

David Ward Dr. Powell Principles of Info Systems November 12, 2015 Cloud Project The purpose of this project is to investigate different cloud services that are being offered in today’s marketplace, analyze their different benefits as well as negatives, and pick a company who offers services that suits my business best. Regardless of what website we are looking at, all of the websites are offering the same thing, which is a cloud service. Cloud computing service providers can provide IT services, ranging from storage space all the way to complete applications. This has become a viable service, as these companies have the ability to provide IT services with higher quality and more efficiently than their customers can.

Resources are consumed less through the use of intelligent solutions, one of them being cloud storage (Tziritas et al., 2013; Goulart, 2012). 2. The C_Software program which improves live migration in IT is a proof that the roles of IT specialists are bound to change with the adoption of cloud computing (Fejzaj, Tafa & Kajo, 2012; Wenzel, 2011). 3. All companies should follow in the steps of iPayroll Ltd and adapt the models of cloud computing that most SMEs are running for in order to realize the true value of cloud computing programs (Kevany, 2012; Misra & Mondal, 2012).

As the technology marches forward introducing every time we turn around a new, improved device or computer program this constant adaptation undoubtedly affects every part of our financial life. One must agree that iPhones, for example, which become almost absolute after two or three years of use due to evolving computer science must create an economic burden for some American families. The same way, all hospitals must struggle with maintaining technological sharpness while assuring the presence of digital innovation despite the existing financial limitations. To illustrate the monetary hindrance in the VA Hospital, I would like to bring to the attention a problem related to cloud-based application necessary for managing and storing information.

Computing of cloud joins Infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS) and software as a service (SaaS) and in addition Web 2.0. Generally, cloud computing customers don't assert the physical infrastructure, rather renting so as to maintain a strategic distance from capital consumption use from a third-party provider. They use resources as a service and pay just for resources that they use. Various cloud distributed computing offerings use the utility computing model, which is basically proportional to how conventional utility services.

Evaluation of Cloud Computing Paul Neira November 11, 2014 CMGT/441 Professor Teresa Stone INTRODUCTION: Cloud computing is fast data technology that many companies are using like, Google, Microsoft, and IBM are currently looking to get a strong support in as demand for the service increase. Cloud computing is a concept of allowing both businesses and individuals to store information and applications on remote servers, that are operated and owned by third party companies, rather than on their own information centers and hard drives. The service boasts the capability to securely access applications and information from just about any devices with a net connection, allowing such services to stream music from a personal collection from more

Henry Lippert IST 305 Feb. 24th, 2013 Cloud computing is becoming more and more popular amongst businesses of all sizes and shows no signs of slowing. A survey sponsored by CompTIA, an IT industry trade association for nonprofit, shows eight in ten companies are using some form of cloud computing currently, with more than half surveyed planning to increase their investments in cloud technology in the coming year. (Smith, 2012) Before, only big corporations could afford the technology for cloud computing, but the highly sophisticated tools necessary for cloud computing are becoming increasingly more available and affordable to businesses of all sizes. This affordability allows business to cut their operating costs drastically by switching to

It offers cloud computing services to its consumers through iCloud, for instance. Apple has leveraged cloud solution while overcoming its security concerns by ensuring that its information security system is built on a backbone of data security, particularly combined with geographic redundancy for maximum accessibility. The company has also invested physical and logical data security that not only makes it hard for hackers to access the company’s servers, but also its security applications or software that run their servers. The concerns surrounding cloud operations are warranted because the distributed or multi-tenancy nature of the cloud computing systems makes them vulnerable (Bergstra & Burgess,

In this perspective, the progressive balancing and/or offload of computing resources to external provider entities has provided a solution to deal with device shortcomings, creating an intersection between the mobility and cloud paradigms. While this strategy provides a solution for dealing with device energy, storage and processing power trade-offs, it also brings new challenges, as cloud services can potentially host relevant evidence. For many, cloud computing is the future of mobility: in a recent survey by the Right Scale company [RightScale 2016], 95% of the surveyed organizations have adopted a private, public or hybrid cloud strategy. In the same survey, security on the
