BASICS OF CLOUD COMPUTING
AbstractConsider an analogy where personal computer users are not required to run, install or store their applications on their personal computers. Consider a situation where every piece of your information and data may be stored on the cloud (Internet). As an allegory for the Internet, cloud is a very popular word but when integrated with the word “computing,” it becomes more important and uncertain. Cloud computing comes into focus only when users think about what they always need, which leads to the concept of an updated version of utility computing. The advancement of cloud computing came about because of the quickly developing utilization of the web among the general population. Cloud computing is anything but an absolutely new innovation; it’s actually a voyage through distributed, cluster, grid and presently cloud computing. Before the increasing utilization of the web everywhere throughout the globe, cloud computing had just been used in the IT business. Cloud computing is transforming the computing landscape. The cloud concept and its computing process is an emerging topic in internet-centric and IT-market-oriented businesses. The goal required for the IT industry should be a direct conversation about how this new computing worldview will put an effect the associations, how it can be utilized with the current advancements. Cloud computing needs a third-party vendor through which a client or an end user or a customer may use the cloud provided by a cloud service provider (CSP) on demand.Keywords: Cloud service provider, cloud computing
