CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION Cloud computing refers to the delivery of computing and storage capacity (Gruman ‚2008) as a service to a heterogeneous community of end-recipients. The name comes from the use of clouds as an abstraction for the complex infrastructure it contains in system diagrams (Gruman‚ 2008). Cloud computing entrusts services with a user’s data‚ software and computation over a network. Cloud computing can be public or private or hybrid. In public cloud‚ applications‚ storage‚ and

with adequate ICT skills‚ has limited resources‚ cloud computing can be a better alternative solution. One of the emerging solution for the consolidation of government infrastructure and services is cloud computing. Cloud computing is sharing or accessing of the resources; either hardware (infrastructure) or software (services) over the internet. Cloud computing facilitates its end users by providing virtual resources via internet. Cloud computing is an emerging technology that is gaining popularity

Cloud computing is an emerging computing technology that uses the internet and central remote servers to maintain data and applications. Cloud computing allows consumers and businesses to use applications without installation and access their personal files at any computer with internet access. This technology allows for much more efficient computing by centralizing storage‚ memory‚ processing and bandwidth. Cloud computing is broken down into three segments: "applications‚" "platforms‚" and "infrastructure

Main technology characteristics The following five characteristics of cloud computing are created by the Gartner Group‚ according to Plummer‚ et al. (2009) and Mell and Grance (2009)‚ and have a summariz-ing purpose for applying cloud computing in general (cited in Mora‚ 2009). Service based – The technology is service-oriented‚ thus abstracting the con-cerns of the consumer with the concerns of the providers (Mora‚ 2009). The ser-vices are provisioned automatically without human interaction

In 4000 BC‚ Sumerians developed a method to write down information on clay tablets. In 1450‚ Gutenburg developed the printing press allowing the mass production of the written word. As we progress through the 21st century‚ humans now have the ability to share information

Advantages Cloud computing relies on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economies of scale similar to a utility (like the electricity grid) over a network.[2] At the foundation of cloud computing is the broader concept of converged infrastructure and shared services. The cloud also focuses on maximizing the effectiveness of the shared resources. Cloud resources are usually not only shared by multiple users but are also dynamically re-allocated per demand. This can work for allocating

Introduction: Cloud computing is a colloquial expression used to describe a variety of different computing concepts that involve a large number of computers that are connected through a real-time communication network (typically the Internet). Cloud computing is a jargon term without a commonly accepted non-ambiguous scientific or technical definition. In science‚ cloud computing is a synonym for distributed computing over a network and means the ability to run a program on many connected computers
