Evaluation of Network Parameters in Cloud Environment

Abstract

AbstractVirtualization is considered one of the green information technology (IT)s that will help lower the cost of technology and upkeep. Virtualization and multitasking operating systems have similar working capabilities. Virtualization techniques are now used in data centers to abstract physical networks, create large pools of logical resources consisting of central processing units (CPUs), memory, file storage, disks, networking and applications and distribute those resources to users or customers in the form of agile, modular and consolidated virtual machines. Cloud computing provides more convenience for any computing needs than conventional, offering custom virtual machine (VM). The proposed work focuses on two forms of tests in a preliminary analysis to assess the efficiency of cloud infrastructure. The first test is to assess network efficiency and the second to measure the performance of cloud computation. Here the focus is on the performance efficiency pillar of the Amazon web service (AWS) Well-Architected Framework. AWS is Amazon’s extensive and developing cloud computing network, including Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS) and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The factors examined in this study include uptime, transfer rate, jitter and latency while transferring a file from the desktop to an Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instance. The findings demonstrate that VMs from a basic cloud computing infrastructure that are utilized to produce video have a significantly longer processing time than the same specification personal computer (PC). The network side has been considered a gateway to the success of degradation rendering in cloud computing.KeywordVirtualizationVirtual machineCloud computingInformation technologyAmazon web service
