Farheen Patel

Abstract :

This paper explains the importance of cloud and grid in the computing. Often in all most all persons who were related to the field of computer technology that if cloud computing is actually something new and, if so, what exactly distinguishes this new paradigm from former computing models like cluster and grid computing. In grid computing where more than one computer coordinates to solve a problem together. Often used for problems involving a lot of number crunching, which can be easily parallelizable. Cloud computing is where an application doesn\'t access resources it requires directly, rather it accesses them through something like a service. As provided by the cloud computing like Software As Service, Infrastructure As Service and Platform As Service.
