Cloud computing for future generation of computing technology

The emergence of cloud computing, envisioned as the future generation of computing model for its major advantages in on-demand self-service, ubiquitous network access, location independent resource pooling and transference of risk, has established a trend towards building massive, energy-hungry and geographically distributed data centers. It is the latest developments of computing models after distributed computing, parallel processing and grid computing. It achieves multi-level virtualization and abstraction through effective integration of variety of computing, storage, data, applications and other resources, users can be easy to use powerful computing and storage capacity of cloud computing only need to connect to the network. It can also concentrate all computation resources and manage automatically through the software without intervene. In this paper, we highlight…
