Cloud computing architecture refers to the components and subcomponents required for cloud computing.These components typically consist of a front end platform (fat client, thin client, mobile), back end platforms (servers, storage), a cloud based delivery, and a network (Internet, Intranet, Intercloud).
Cloud bursting is an application deployment model in which an application runs in a private cloud or data center and "bursts" to a public cloud when the demand for computing capacity increases. A primary advantage of cloud bursting and a hybrid cloud model is that an organization pays for extra compute resources only when they are needed. [ 68 ]
OpenNebula is an open source cloud computing platform for managing heterogeneous data center, public cloud and edge computing infrastructure resources. OpenNebula manages on-premises and remote virtual infrastructure to build private, public, or hybrid implementations of infrastructure as a service (IaaS) and multi-tenant Kubernetes deployments.
Google App Engine (also referred to as GAE or App Engine) is a cloud computing platform used as a service for developing and hosting web applications.Applications are sandboxed and run across multiple Google-managed servers. [2]
NASA's Nebula platform. In July 2010, Rackspace Hosting and NASA announced an open-source cloud-software initiative known as OpenStack. [7] [8] The mission statement was "to produce the ubiquitous Open Source Cloud Computing platform that will meet the needs of public and private clouds regardless of size, by being simple to implement and massively scalable".
Converged infrastructure is a way of structuring an information technology (IT) system which groups multiple components into a single optimized computing package. Components of a converged infrastructure may include servers , data storage devices , networking equipment and software for IT infrastructure management, automation and orchestration .
Google File System (GFS or GoogleFS, not to be confused with the GFS Linux file system) is a proprietary distributed file system developed by Google to provide efficient, reliable access to data using large clusters of commodity hardware.
The three-tier is the common network architecture used in data centers. [10] However, three-tier architecture is unable to handle the growing demand of cloud computing. [11] The higher layers of the three-tier DCN are highly oversubscribed. [3] Moreover, scalability is another major issue in three-tier DCN.
