Cloud Computing Technologies Virtualization
There are certain technologies working behind the cloud computing platforms making cloud computing flexible, reliable, and usable. These technologies are listed below:
- Virtualization
- Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)
- Grid Computing
- Utility Computing
- Virtualization
Virtualization is a technique, which allows to share single physical instance of an application or resource among multiple organizations or tenants (customers). It does this by assigning a logical name to a physical resource and providing a pointer to that physical resource when demanded.
The Multitenant architecture offers virtual isolation among the multiple tenants. Hence, the organizations can use and customize their application as though they each have their instances running.
