Cloud computing is a new computing paradigm which allows sharing of resources on remote server such as hardware, network, storage using internet and provides the way through which application, computing power, computing infrastructure can be delivered to the user as a service. Cloud computing unique attribute promise cost effective Information Technology Solution (IT Solution) to the user. All computing needs are provided by the Cloud Service Provider (CSP) and they can be increased or decreased dynamically as required by the user. As data and Application are located at the server and may be beyond geographical boundary, this leads a number of concern from the user prospective. The objective of this paper is to explore the key issues of cloud computing which is delaying its adoption.

Every organisation today wants to adopt cloud computing paradigm and leverage its various advantages. Today everyone is aware of its characteristics which have made it so popular and how it can help the organisations focus on their core activities leaving all IT services development and maintenance to the cloud service providers. Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) act as the interface between the CSPs and the consumers. This paper proposes an improved access control mechanism for securing the Cloud APIs.
Cloud Computing has become another buzzword after Web 2.0. However, there are dozens of different definitions for Cloud Computing and there seems to be no consensus on what a Cloud is. On the other hand, Cloud Computing is not a completely new concept; it has intricate connection to the relatively new but thirteen-year established Grid Computing paradigm, and other relevant technologies such as utility computing, cluster computing, and distributed systems in general. This paper strives to compare and contrast Cloud Computing with Grid Computing from various angles and give insights into the essential characteristics of both.
Bolted is a new architecture for bare-metal clouds that enables tenants to control tradeoffs between security, price, and performance. Security-sensitive tenants can minimize their trust in the public cloud provider and achieve similar levels of security and control that they can obtain in their own private data centers. At the same time, Bolted neither imposes overhead on tenants that are security insensitive nor compromises the flexibility or operational efficiency of the provider. Our prototype exploits a novel provisioning system and specialized firmware to enable elasticity similar to virtualized clouds. Experimentally we quantify the cost of different levels of security for a variety of workloads and demonstrate the value of giving control to the tenant.
In hardware virtualization a hypervisor provides multiple Virtual Machines (VMs) on a single physical system, each executing a separate operating system instance. The hypervisor schedules execution of these VMs much as the scheduler in an operating system does, balancing factors such as fairness and I/O performance. As in an operating system, the scheduler may be vulnerable to malicious behavior on the part of users seeking to deny service to others or maximize their own resource usage. Recently, publically available cloud computing services such as Amazon EC2 have used virtualization to provide customers with virtual machines running on the providers hardware, typically charging by wall clock time rather than resources consumed. Under this business model, manipulation of the scheduler may allow theft of service at the expense of other customers, rather than merely reallocating resources within the same administrative domain. We describe a flaw in the Xen scheduler allowing virtual machines to consume almost all CPU time, in preference to other users, and demonstrate kernel-based and user-spa
This letter provides a review of fundamental distributed systems and economic Cloud computing principles. These principles are frequently deployed in their respective fields, but their inter-dependencies are often neglected. Given that Cloud Computing first and foremost is a new business model, a new model to sell computational resources, the understanding of these concepts is facilitated by treating them in unison. Here, we review some of the most important concepts and how they relate to each other.
