Cloud services free business from having to invest in
hardware or install software on their devices. They reduce
maintenance and hardware upgrading needs because the
solutions are all web-based
6. Models of Cloud Computing
I. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
This service model comprises a wide range of features,
services and resources which support to buildan virtual
infrastructure for computing. Organizations can be
developed entire infrastructureondemand. E.g. Amazon
Web Services with wide variety of options to choose
other examples are Library of Congress and ExLibris.
II. Platform as a Service (PasS)
Platform as a Service model helps in generating the
computing platforms to run thesoftwareandothertools
over the internet without managing the software and
hardware at the end of user side. Amazon Elastic Cloud,
EMC Atoms, Astana and Go Grid are the examples of
PaaS model which providing platforms to users in
maintaining and supporting their IT infrastructure
without spending huge amount for buying hardware,
software and related technology
III. Software as a Service (SasS)
In this service a user do not own the software but uses it
as and when required the access via cloud computing
either on a pay-per-usage basis or by the way of annual
subscription. The software is owned by the service
provider.
E.g. A typical example of Sass is the Google Apps,
Microsoft Share Point, Koha, Google Scholar, Biblios net
7. Types of Cloud Computing
I. Public Cloud: A public cloud is one based on the
standard cloud computing model, in which a service
provider makes resources, such as applications and
storage, available to the generalpublicovertheInternet.
Public cloud services may be free or offered on a pay-
per- usage model. The main benefitofusingpubliccloud
is no wasted resources because you pay for what you
use.
II. Private Cloud: This kind of development model solely
developed and managed by a single organization or a
third party regardless whether it is located in premise
or of premise. There are several reasons behind the
development of private cloud for an organization some
key reasons include optimize utilization of existing in –
house resources, security concerns including data
privacy and trust also make private cloud an options for
many firms, data transfer cost from local IT
infrastructure to a public Cloud is still rather
considerable, organizations always require full control
over mission critical activities that reside behind their
firewalls and for research and teaching purposes.
III. Hybrid Cloud: A hybrid cloud is a cloud computing
environment in which an organization provides and
manages some resources in house and others provided
externally. Hybrid cloud is a composition of two or more
clouds that remain unique entities but are bound
together offering the benefits of multiple development
models.
IV. Community Cloud: The cloud infrastructure is shared
between the companies of the same community, For
example, all the government organization in a city can
share the same cloud but not the non-governmental
organization.
8. Conclusion
Cloud computing technologies promises new opportunities
and service offerings for the library and information service
practices. The reward of cloud based library services are
really worth to the future of libries.Theycan helpcompanies
achieve more efficient use of their. It hardwareandsoftware
investments and providemeans toacceleratetheadoption of
innovations. Library is one of the service areas where cloud
computing techniques will be fully enforced.

Various types of technologies like Web 2.0, utility computing, grid computing etc are included in the Cloud Computing. Libraries are able to give their services promptly with the help of Cloud Computing technology. Now libraries using Cloud Computing technology to attract their users. Due to explosion of information, problems in accessing the information, need of cloud computing is increasing day by day. KEYWORDS: Information communication Technology, cloud computing, Web 2.0 1. INTRODUCTION Computer technologyhas become a part and parcel of our life. This technology is playing an important role in today’s era of information dissemination. Libraries are getting inter connected through web and in gaining access to Internet. They are providing different services to userslikee-Books,e-journals, databaseetc.but computerization may prove expensive in certain ways,. Hence, to curtail the expenses, a new technology, i.e. Cloud Computing is gradually becoming popular in usage. Cloud Computing means using a remote or outside computingsystem to monitor or perform computer-relatedtasks within an organization, withoutusing its own computing system. This entails using computing sources and systems from the cloud server located at a place. Here ‘Cloud implies a server-community which is located at a remote place where the entire computing system, sources, command, word processing and data storage system is available. With the access to internet, one can use the system from anywhere. Cloud Computing means using the sources of computing with the help of cloud server by means of computer, net books, laptop or smart phone 2. NEED FOR CLOUD COMPUTING IN LIBRARIES Libraryis a most important academic and scientificresearch base, charges for providinginformation services for its users. In the past, most libraries insisted that their service is based on their own library resources. So librarians scarcely considered users demands. But today, digital libraries have changed this view point andlibrariansusuallyneedto collect as much information as they can according to users. Requirements Then they will analyze the information and sort out them. Finally, they will provide them for users in some certain technical methods. However services in digital libraries will increasingly focus on users, demanding in future .And the ultimate goal of digital library is to offer appropriate, comprehensive and multi-level services for its users. With the introduction of cloud computing to digital library, services of libraries will have a new leap in the near future services provided by libraries will become more user centric, more professional and more effective etc. Andweall believe that libraries willcreatemoreknowledgebenefits for our country with the help of Cloud Computing. 3. ROLE OF CLOUD COMPUTING Cloud computing is a computing new in technology and it is known as 3rd revolution after PC and Internet. Cloud computing has large potentialforlibraries.Librariesmayput more and more content into the cloud. Using cloud computing user would be able to browse a physical shelf of books, CDs or DVDs or choose to take out an item or scan a bar code into his mobile device. Many libraries already have OPAC and share bibliographic data with OCLC. More frequent online catalogues are linked to consortium that share resources. Data storage cloud is a main function of libraries, particularly those with digital collection storing large digital files can stress local server infrastructures. Moving data to the cloud may be a leap of some library professionals. Cloud computing or IT infrastructure that exists remotely. Oftengives users increased capacityandless IJTSRD23101
