Cloud Based Application Server for Universities

Rapid decrease in hardware cost and increase in computing power and storage capacity are the main factor of cloud computing. The exponentially growing data size in scientific instrumentation simulation internet publishing and archiving bring the necessity of cloud computing in the forward. The Cloud Computing trend of replacing software traditionally installed on campus computers with applications delivered via the internet is driven by aims of reducing universities'' IT complexity and cost. Cloud Computing could be a technological innovation that reduces IT costs for the institutes and eliminates many of the time-related constraints for students making learning tools accessible for a larger number of students.
