The Classification and Arts of Open Source Cloud Computing: A Review

Cloud computing refers to the concept of dynamic processing and optimization of storage allocation of computational resources in the “cloud”. This system allows users to obtain and release the resources on demand and gain access to data by providing the relegation of the physical location and accurate parameters of the resources. Cloud computing systems are either proprietary or dependent on infrastructure software, which is the focus of this research. Open source (OS), which is a cloud infrastructure software, is popular in particular fields, such as operating systems, programming languages and software application, and, most importantly, cloud computing. However, public administrations, commercial enterprises, and other institutions have yet to incorporate Open source software in the cloud infrastructure of their organizations because of the lack of information and comprehension of such technology. This paper, therefore, will examine the principles of cloud computing, compare proprietary cloud computing and open source cloud computing, examine the OSCC platforms, and examine the open stack platform usage.
