Abstract

Cloud is an internet-based concept that tries to hide its underlying complexity from end users. Cloud service providers (CSPs) use many structural designs combined with selfservice capabilities and ready-to-use facilities for computing resources, which are enabled through network infrastructure, especially in the internet, which is an important consideration. This chapter elaborately describes an efficient architectural framework for cloud computing that may lead to better performance and faster access.

This chapter focuses on the architectural framework along with the economic reasons like minimum investment on infrastructure, no need to assemble and maintain a largescale system, low computing costs and no need for employee investments. Due to these economic advantages, clients benefit from minimizing the execution time of user applications, including data-intensive and compute-intensive applications. Moreover, the application developers can get an interface or platform where they can derive pleasure from the use of immediate and ready-made infrastructure and can feel free to design the related applications without any overhead in terms of where the application will be executed.

From a business point of view, cloud computing has a great advantage of reducing setup cost for service providers. Cloud service providers set up the cloud infrastructure, including bare metal hardware resources, system and computing resources in the primary level. And after that they are able to provide the services to the clients according their requirements. On the other side, the cloud users get the services from the providers without setting up any cloud infrastructure and also without making any investments in that particular service; only they have to provide the payment according to their usage.

The aim of cloud computing is to make the relation easy between the clients and providers. Hence, a good cloud architectural framework is needed so that the clients can easily deploy their application on the cloud platform and get the chance to design and test their applications. Therefore, this chapter focuses on the cloud framework where multiple users can get cloud service from the providers and also can deploy their application on the cloud platform irrespective of which operating system they are using. The main hold of cloud computing is the ability to use several servers according to the requirements of the users to provide an optimal response to the cost and time constraints of an application. It can be possible when the workload can be divided into different data centers using the virtual machines discussed in this chapter.
