Single Process Architecture for E-Learning Over Cloud Computing
A Cloud is a type of parallel and distributed system consisting of a collection of interconnected and virtualized computers that are dynamically provisioned and presented as one or more unified computing resources based on service-level agreements established through negotiation between the service provider and consumers. C loud Computing refers to both the applications delivered as services over the Internet and the hardware and systems software in the data centres that provide those services (Software as a Service - SaaS). The data center hardware and software is what we will call a Cloud. Fr om the studies of various research papers and works done by various researchers it has been found that the major areas of focus in the field of cloud computing are architecture definitions, security, integration of services on various layers, inclusion of Various network and communication devices being developed rapidly. E -Learning through cloud computing is a promising area for the ease of both faculties and students around the world. The work done in cloud computing based e-Learning is oriented on centralized server and further improvement in this can be done. I n this research, a new distributed architecture is being proposed to provide an opportunity to the learners around the world to use the resources being shared by the faculties and online communication between the faculties and students.
E-Learning Improved Architecture for Clouds
E-Learning is spreading around the world with leaps and bounds with the growth of Internet. People are keen to get high skilled knowledge from the knowledge pros in the industry and a very new concept of cloud computing is also not unaffected with E-learning. With the intense penetration of the Internet in the life of mankind and fast acceptance of the cloud computing is making researchers to design the various architectures for the cloud applications in generalized manner and specific to the applications. E-learning facilitates the students, teachers, universities and educational service providers to get the services with all ease and 24x7 bases. In cloud computing we mean by a Cloud as a type of parallel and distributed system over the network and virtual machines which are managed for load balancing with high provision for security, and its services are offered to the customers using SLA (Service Level Agreement). Whereas, Cloud Computing includes both applications and hardware & system software running applications. From the studies of various research papers and works done by various researchers it has been found that the major areas of focus in the field of cloud computing are architecture definitions, security, integration of services on various layers, inclusion of Various network and communication devices being developed rapidly.
