If one of the storage resource fails&comma; then it can be extracted from another one which makes cloud computing more reliable&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2>NETWORK<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p>Network is the key component of cloud infrastructure&period; It allows to connect cloud services over the Internet&period; It is also possible to deliver network as a utility over the Internet&comma; i&period;e&period;&comma; the consumer can customize the network route and protocol&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<div id&equals;"ads-id" align&equals;"center"><&sol;div>&NewLine;<h2>SERVER<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p>Server helps to compute the resource sharing and offer other services such as resource allocation and deallocation&comma; monitoring resources&comma; security&comma; etc&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2>HYPERVISOR<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p>Hypervisor is a firmware or low-level program that acts as a Virtual Machine Manager&period; It allows to share the single physical instance of cloud resources between several tenants&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2>Facalities<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<h3>1&period; MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE<&sol;h3>&NewLine;<p>Management Software helps to maintain and configure the infrastructure&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h3>2&period;

Also the control node&comma; a entry point in mega data center also needs to be secure&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2>MONITORING<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p>To achieve transparency and scalability&comma; application solution delivery will need to be capable of intelligent monitoring&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2>TRANSPARENCY<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p>Since virtualization is the key to share resources in cloud environment&period; But it is not possible to satisfy the demand with single resource or server&period; Therefore&comma; there must be transparency in resources&comma; load balancing and application&comma; so that we can scale them on demand&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2>SCALABILITY<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p>Scaling up an application delivery solution is not that easy as scaling up an application because it involves configuration overhead or even re-architecting the network&period; So&comma; application delivery solution is need to be scalable which will require the virtual infrastructure such that resource can be provisioned and de-provisioned easily&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<&sol;div>&NewLine;<div style&equals;"background-color&colon;
