These days "cloud computing" is the buzzword used to describe the direction in which information network infrastructure seems to be leaning towards. The authors reasoned that cloud computing sprouted from grid computing‚ distributed computing‚ and parallel computing‚ which resonated with the works of Foster‚ Zhao‚ Raicu‚ & Lu‚ 2008 [1]. And like many‚ they found it a challenge to provide an encompassing definition for cloud computing. Foster et al. defined cloud computing as‚ “A large-scale distributed

History of Cloud Computing The term “cloud computing” was most probably derived from the diagrams of clouds used to represent the Internet in textbooks. The concept was derived from telecommunications companies who made a radical shift from point-to-point data circuits to Virtual Private Network (VPN) services in the 1990s. By optimizing resource utilization through load balancing‚ they could get their work done more efficiently and inexpensively. The first time the term was used in its current
