Cloud Computing: A Paradigm Shift in the Way of Computing

Abstract

Cloud computing has been emerging out as a new and evolving paradigm with tremendous momentum. It is one of the most acceptable information technology based service which drew the attention of the people not only from the academia, industry but also registered its popularity among the general people. Features like scalability, elasticity, less entry cost, easy to access and subscription and pay per use etc. compel the businesses and end users to migrate themselves from the traditional platform to the cloud based platform. With the wide acceptability of cloud computing based services in the society, people have various myths like some think it as a new name of internet, as it shares many features of the internet while others feel it as another name of existing technology like distributed system, grid computing, and parallel computing etc.. This paper will help in making people aware of this technology by highlighting the points of difference with the existing technology and focusing on the various advantages and area of application which presents the evidence of its popularity and continual growth. The work in the paper will end with the discussion on the status of various issues and shortcomings from which it is suffering along with the present and future scope in this popular area.

Digitalisation of a company decision-making system: a concept for data-driven and fact-based product portfolio management

“…It attracts users with features like scalability, elasticity, lower entry cost, ease of access, flexible payment options (i.e. subscription and pay per use; Agarwal and Srivastava, 2017), and its capacity to efficiently manage massive amounts of data (Sarkar et al, 2019). One driving force from the business side is an increased demand for sharing information (Goel, 2015).…”

To determine the critical factors for the adoption of cloud computing in the educational sector in developing countries – a fuzzy DEMATEL approach

“…Moreover, the cloud is expected to make huge upgrades in global markets with revolutionary technologies such as Internet of things (IoT), automation and artificial intelligence (Narwane et al , 2020a). According to Gartner, around 75% of organizations face interference in the present year due to infrastructure which can be helped by cloud computing (CC) and artificial intelligence (AI) resources aiding the enterprises to look over their past failures and create beneficial conclusions (Agarwal and Srivastava, 2017).…”

Modified ECC for Secure Data Transfer in Multi-Tenant Cloud Computing

“…Then the original information is obtained by the authorized person who decodes the encrypted message in an appropriate manner. And this procedure is termed as decryption [12][13][14].…”
