CLOUD COMPUTING3Literature Review:What is cloud computing?Information technology is the field that is experiencing great development. The use of information technology tools has allowed the users to make many changes and development in every organisational process. In context of business, most of the organisations have also started using IT tools and services to conduct some of the activities at the workplace. Now, the time has come that each and every organisation is dependent on software and hardware for their functioning. Cloud computing is the term that is given to an online data base that acts as the storage device (Qian, et al. 2009). It provides one of the facilities to the companiesor the user to use internet as the medium to store and save data and use the applications online. Traditionally, suing the business applications was very expensive and complicated in nature. Whole team of experts were required to install, configure and run those applications in the company. With the invention of cloud computing, these complicated activities have eliminated. Now the applications are not managed by the company itself but are on shared server which is managed by experienced vendors of clouds. Cloud based application are easy to use and thus user just enhance to make their account on the particular cloud to use the applications (Buyya, Yeo and Venugopal, 2008). Even the data can be stored at the cloud andit can be shared to anyone along with having secured connections. Cloud architecture: Figure 1The architecture of cloud computing is very complicated and involves 4 layers. The first layeris the hardware that is also called ad datacentre layer, the infrastructure layer, platform layer and the last one is application layer. The hardware layer: It is the layer of physical resources such as clouds, servers, routers, switches, power etc. A data centre is the centre that includes many servers that are organised and interconnected with switches and other associated linking devices. The infrastructure layer: It is the layer that includes virtualisation technologies that is very important for the cloud applications to run (Zhang and Zhou, 2009).
