For this reason, cloud computing has also can created and put it out on the physical machine with been described as "on-demand computing." The Internet providing the ideas using the hypervisors. So the is utilized as a vehicle but it is not the cloud.

The cloud technologies are an order to secure wide area environment such as the cloud. operating technology built on a vast number of computers While consolidating physical to virtual machines using that provide a service [1]. Google as a best example of Xen hypervisor, we want to be able to deploy and manage cloud computing. What happens when you type and virtual machines in the same way we manage and deploy search something on Google? Have you ever thought physical machines. For operators and support people about this? Does your PC go through all that information, there should be no difference between virtual and sorts it out for you and display all the relevant results? IJERTNo, it doesn’t.
