description Cloud computing is fundamentally altering the expectations for how and when computing, storage, and networking resources should be allocated, managed, consumed, and allow users to utilize services globally. Due to the powerful computing and storage, high availability and security, easy accessibility and adaptability, reliable scalability and interoperability, cost and time effective cloud computing is the top, needed for current fast growing business world. A client, organization or a trade that adopting emerging cloud environment can choose a well suitable infrastructure, platform, software, and a network resource, for any business, where each one has some exclusive features and advantages. The authors first develop a comprehensive classification for describing cloud computing architecture. This classification help in survey of several existing cloud computing services developed by various projects globally such as Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Sun and Force.com and by using this survey’s results the authors identified similarities and differences of the architecture approaches of cloud computing.
