Cloud Computing Techniques

Abstract

Cloud computing describes a new supplement, consumption, and delivery model for the software and hardware services based on the Internet protocols, and it typically involves provisioning of dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources. It is a byproduct and consequence of the ease-of-access to remote computing sites provided by the Internet. This may take the form of web-based tools or applications that the end users can access and use through a web browser as if the programs were installed locally on their own computers. Therefore, the end users may not need to install any application software on their local computers. All the computations and data processing happen in the remote resource.
