Abstract

Cloud computing provides users with access to system resources on demand. Before the advent of Cloud computing, users could run applications or programs from software downloaded to their computer or server. Cloud computing allows access to the same applications through the Internet. cloud computing has brought down the cost involved in computing. Users can avail resources and services according to their need. This ability to access information anywhere, anyhow, and at any time has positively impacted migration to the Cloud by organizations. With the advancement of cloud computing, there is a paradigm shift is in data storage and usage of remote applications. Adding mobility to computing, cloud has made data and applications to move out of physical buildings. So, data are no more confined. It is available on the go. By adding these features, the cloud also facilitates reliability, efficiency, and scalability. The demand of the cloud is exponentially growing with invention of the high-end and sophisticated devices. The cloud services are transparent and easy. Hence, it addresses the increasing demand easily. Cloud computing architecture is responsible for the distribution of cloud computing services that involve numerous cloud computing constituents, which communicate between them using a technique such as messaging line. The problem of managing the resources in the cloud still needs more innovations as the problems still persist. The cloud computing architecture of a cloud solution is the structure of the system, which involves premise and cloud resources, services, middleware, and software. In cloud computing, resource management comprises of provisioning, allocation, and monitoring. Cloud resources consist of the servers, memory, storage, network, CPU, application servers, and cybernetic systems otherwise called virtual machines. These machines are the processing units in cloud. Virtualization provides solutions for managing the cloud resources. The performance of any system depends on the effective management of resources. The resource management in cloud computing systems encompasses to manage the large number of virtual machines and physical machines (Vashistha, A., Kumar, S., Verma, P., Porwal, R. A self-adaptive view on resource management in cloud data center. IEEE Computer Society, 2018). Cloud architectures are constructed as software applications that use Internet accessible on-demand services. The applications in cloud architectures make use of the computing infrastructure when it is needed. It requests the necessary resources on demand, accomplishes a prescribed job, then releases the unneeded resources, and often disposes them after the job is done.
