Abstract

infrastructure as a service software as a service virtualization subscriber requirements grid computing platform as a service cloud service models cloud computing on‐demand computing multi‐tenancy
Cloud computing is a paradigm shift in which server hardware and software are not located onsite, but instead, accessed over the Internet on demand in a dynamically scalable and virtualized form. In this article, we discuss about cloud computing, the different forms and business/service models it can take, and suggest ways in which those service models should be matched to a subscriber's information processing requirements.
