These days "cloud computing" is the buzzword used to describe the direction in which information network infrastructure seems to be leaning towards. The authors reasoned that cloud computing sprouted from grid computing‚ distributed computing‚ and parallel computing‚ which resonated with the works of Foster‚ Zhao‚ Raicu‚ & Lu‚ 2008 [1]. And like many‚ they found it a challenge to provide an encompassing definition for cloud computing. Foster et al. defined cloud computing as‚ “A large-scale distributed

Cloud computing is Internet-based computing‚ whereby shared resources‚ software and information are provided to computers and other devices on-demand‚ like a public utility. It is a paradigm shift following the shift from mainframe to client-server that preceded it in the early ’80s. Details are abstracted from the users who no longer have need of‚ expertise in‚ or control over the technology infrastructure "in the cloud" that supports them.[1] Cloud computing describes a new supplement‚ consumption
