Abstract

Now a day's cloud computing became an attractive area of research and practices over the last few years. An increased number of private and public sector organizations have either adopted cloud company based solutions or seriously consider moving to cloud computing. In this paper we initiated a project designing and setting up a private cloud infrastructure in an academic environment. The objective of this research paper is find alternatives to the use of IT, while leading universities to improve power consumption, energy and obtain cost savings. Public cloud computing has potential to reduce information and communication technology costs by virtualized capital assets such as disk storage but in case of private cloud, university should consider private cloud deployment models to realize scale on demand, rapid platform deployment. Use of cloud computing an university has many benefits such as research projects, files, databases and tools for faculty, staffs and students in the university. It reduces university IT complexity and cost. Researcher runs simulations through message passing interfaces to solve complex problems by no. of virtual machines but we will show a private cloud development for university to support such requirements. The article begins with introduction to cloud computing in universities in first section. In the second section we discuss on characteristic and deployments of cloud computing. Then we discuss the implementation of cloud computing at universities and at last we will see suggested prototype architecture of university campus.
