Enhanced Multi-Tenant Architecture for DaaS, PaaS, IaaS and SaaS in Edu-Cloud: Simplifying the Service provisioning in Edu-Cloud by multi-tenant architecture

Educational institutions keep on seeking opportunities to extemporize, integrate and rationalize the way they manage their resources. Thus the technology of cloud computing can be one of the opportunities that an educational institute can make use during all the times and could prove to be of immense benefit to them due to its scalability factor, reliability, flexibility and cost-efficiency. Cloud Computing is a technology continuously evolving service criterion with a significant importance to the improvement of information technology in education. Cloud computing approach depends on various existing technologies such as Internet, virtualization, Web streaming and so on. Multi-tenant framework for provisioning, managing and controlling the services (DaaS, PaaS, SaaS and IaaS) gives a different facet to the users of Edu -- Cloud. The centralized educational resources make the students/researchers can access them "anytime anywhere by any device".
