Comparisons of Cloud Computing Models and Technologies

Abstract:

Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. Cloud computing allows new ideas, business concepts, and prototype systems to rapidly move to market, which represents a competitive advantage. Some cloud computing models and technologies are compared in this paper.
