Introduction
The term “cloud “is used as a metaphor for
the internet which describe how a network or
rempte servers can be accessed via the internet
to store and manage information . The process
of building applications has been a journey
and it varies depending on one's application
requirements and purpose [1]
Cloud computing is a term for characterizing
the facilitating administration over the internet
. It is basically an on demand delivery of
computer power , database ,storage ,
applications and the other IT resources
accessed by the internet . It is a paid service as
well as a free service.
There are so many reasons that organizations
are turning to cloud services these days- first it
is a cost effective method in which you can
eliminate capital expenses of buying hardware
and software, data centers set-up and run [2].
Cloud computing implies the secured way of
data accessing , records as well as tasks over
the web instead of any hardware and system .
It computerizes the data at whatever time ,
any place utilizing any service to the internet .
It provides the opportunity of doing things
with more abilities , power and
straightforwardness. Cloud computing has
become a popular model for reducing cost of
business, improvise quality of services, and
provide good & secure computing [3].
Fig 1: Working of cloud computing
In a cloud computing system, there is a
significant workload shift . Local computers
have no longer to do all the heavy lifting when
it comes to run applications . Cloud
computing provides access to to servers,
storage, databases, and a broad set of
application services over the Internet . Various
cloud service providers owns and maintains
the network connected hardware which is
required for the application services , while a
user and use what it needs to require vai the
web application . It works on network layer
protocol to connect different devices to
provide access to resources that are
residing in the centralized data center of
the cloud.

Features of Cloud Computing
1. On Demand self – service :
cloud computing , a client can
provise the computer resources
without any interaction with cloud
service provider .
2. Cloud Computing also provide
broad network access to the cloud
over the network which are using
standard methods that provides
platform independent access to
clients . It is most commonly found
in devices like mobile phones ,
laptops which conclude mixture of
heterogeneous OS.
3. Resource Pooling :- resources are
created by cloud service provider
which can be pooled together in a
multi-tenage user system . As per
requirement , physical and virtual
systems are dynamically allocated
.Pooling specifies the concept of
hiding the resource location like
virtual machine , memory ,
network ,bandwidth .
4. Rapid Elasticity :-As per user
requirement , rapid elasticity can be
increased by scaling up and out
the systems .
5. Measured Service :- Cloud services
are provided to the user in
accordance to the use on the basis
of time .Charges are applied to user
as per usage of the amou
storage used , network used
Cloud service delivery models

Software as a Service (SaaS)
Software as aService (SaaS) is a model for
allocation of software where a user can access
data over the internet . In this model , the
software provider host and retain the servers ,
databases and code that comprise an
application .
Characteristics of SaaS
User is not required to have knowledg
back end infrastructure .
Scalable services or resources over the
web and well defined API.
Saas provider manage the complete
application stack .
Pros & cons of SaaS
Pros :- 1. The client can also access services
without installing the software on th
2. SaaS provider look after identifying and
fixing the bug .
3. With the help of centralized cloud , software
updates are made simpler.
Cons :- 1. Malware attacks can affect the use
of SaaS service in a web browser .

mechanism might be require
Platform as a Service (PaaS)
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a type of cloud
model that
a solution stack as a
service which include resources like

programming language , operating system ,
compiler , run time environment ,servers like
database server , web server . It is more
portable for application developers . The user
can subscribe for the required platform ,
configure and setup the platform depending
upon the time required .
Characterstics of PaaS
It provides in-built scalability , web
service interface and security to connect
other applications outside the PaaS.
It provides common packages/ services for
network , payment integration & databases
.
It uses multi tenant model for multiple
concurrent users with appropriate security
.
Pros and Cons of PaaS
Pros :1. Facilitates working with multiple
platforms .
2. The users are authorised to develop and
upgrade of complete application
3. PaaS automatically takes care of the
application’s dynamic resource requirement .
Cons : 1. A secure aware applications must be
taken as a necessary measures like as secure
connection & encryption while acquiring
PaaS.
2. Customization of underlying hardware and
software may be required .
3. Migration from the PaaS vendors’
application to another PaaS vendor will create
some problem .
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
Infrastructure as a Service(IaaS) are self
service models used for accessing ,monitoring
and managing the remote based data centres
like storage , computing ,networking services
.Best example is Firewall . User can purchase
IaaS based on consumption which can’t save
time from purchasing or installing hardware .
Infrastructure as a Service comes in all
different shapes , sizes and colors . there are 8
types of IaaS providers :
1. Computing
2. Enterprise IT
3. Test/Development
4. Cloud Storage
5. Resource Sharing
6. Telecom
7. Wholesale vending
8. High performance computing
Characteristics of IaaS
> Advance reservations can be made for
resources for a certain duration of time .
> To cater the need of scalability and
provisioned dynamically , elasticity is
implemented .
> In order to enhance the avaibility and
responsiveness , data centers are
geographically distributed around the
globe .
Pros & Cons of IaaS
Pros :1. No need to purchase suitable
dedicated servers .
2. The software launched on IaaS can be
upgraded by the users .
3. The IaaS can be utilized by the developers
to test and develop their applications on
multiple environments .
Cons: 1. The software can be run in the
service provider’s infrastructure and therefore ,
all of the vulnerabilities of such legacy
software can be exposed to other users .
2. The virtual machines may become out of
date with respect to the security updates.
Cloud Development Models
Private Cloud
Private cloud , which is also known as internal
cloud is basically describing the emulation of
cloud computing in a private or in a protected
network .It uses virtualisation technologies
that provide the ability to host the applications

to host the virtual machines or a particular
application within the company’s own network
.It has an ability to recover from failures
,errors .It also allows scale up or demand to
allow with the request generated by users .
Private cloud are most commonly used by the
enterprise for business critical system & to
protect data & intellectual property .
Public Cloud
Public cloud is basically describes the business
models in the traditional mainstream sense ,
where the resources or services are
dynamically provisioned on a self service basis
on internet basis from third party provider .
user can can purchase these cloud from third
party provider for storage or bandwidth and
CPU cycles consumption .
It is beneficial for reducing the need in various
organizations to invest and maintain the IT
resources . All the resources are fully utilized
as customer gets only those resources as per
requirement
Community Cloud
A Community is an offering which is provided
to the particular community . .It is also known
as hosted cloud .This cloud is still a public
cloud but the features and offerings are being
tailored to a particular community .
When more than one public cloud grouped
together , then can form a community of cloud
which can be used to various business partners
or list of companies .
Hybrid Cloud
Hybrid cloud is a combination of elements
,i.e., implementation of various forms of
cloud computing .
Hybrid cloud provides an environment where
an organisation serves or manages the
resources or services internally and the rest is
created externally . They are mostly used is
large scale organisations which provide
resources for internal solutions .
Applications of Cloud Computing
The fundamental requirements and constraints
for developing a software product remain the
same [4].
1. Cloud Computing are broadly used in
IT industries or in business industries
for solving technical and business
related problems by providing data
centres, accessing the software and
Hardware services by saving money
and space and making their own data
centres .
2. Cloud computing is also used in
Banking industries , since they need a
cloud for storing the bank details of
people. But , they are providing least
amount of security . They also use
cloud to set up a network for
communication and system .
3. Medical field now a days uses cloud
computing for assisting in procuring
patient’s details by doctors to access
data remotely , which can lead to
update doctors about patient’s
condition whether they are present or
not .
4. Cloud computing are also used in the
area of Education fields by providing
conventional and interactive
classrooms (smart classes) and also
providing remote access of learning
and realistic material , that is E-
learning .
Future Scope of Cloud computing
The job opportunities for cloud computing are
expected to be risen . The jobs in cloud
computing might reach from cloud developers
to operators . Every role embraces of the
expertise of the cloud computing core & some
domain specific skills . It can monitor wireless
access points, the private, public as well as the
hybrid clouds environment, and can identify
the occurrence of the problems [5] .

Conclusion
So , the study concludes that the main focus of
implementing the cloud is having a backup . It
is simple for anyone to approach personal
devices and make changes to files . It also
helps reduce data delay or redundancy and
also makes easier to manage data . It also
makes capability of using less resources and
easier to access file .
