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

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
