Abstract--This paper is presenting a comparative study on
various service provider of cloud computing which is growing
very fast in the era of internet .Cloud computing provide
various services have tremendous used for IT companies .The
study of this paper will help to give a better comparison
between various service provider of the cloud computing
.Cloud computing deliver computing services on the internet.
It also provides software and hardware that is available in the
distributed location which can help an individuals and a
business through any internet connection. This focus is based
on comparisons between various parameters such as reduce
outspoken investment, services provided by feature,
performance, backup process, cost, information security,
scalability, what is the limit of data we can put on cloud
computing. we also discuss about the type of clouds and
service provide by various cloud service provider and
advantage and disadvantage of using cloud computing.
I. INTRODUCTION
Cloud computing provides a shared collection of
resources, including data storage space, networks, power,
and specialized corporate and user applications. Cloud
computing is the delivery of computing services over the
Internet. Examples of cloud services include online file
storage, social networking sites, webmail, and online
business applications. The cloud computing model allows
access to information and computer resources from
anywhere that a network connection is available.
The cloud computing is a model for making appropriate,
as per requirement network access to a common group of
configurable resources such as applications, services
,database storage , network etc. that is beneficial for
provide service at minimal requirement of management and
service required by a user.

Now a day the user level is highly increased to utilize
the services in cloud computing. In cloud computing the
major problem area is fault tolerance. Many clients can
request the server at a time make the server overloading
cause fault [1].

II. CLOUD TYPES
There are four types of clouds as discussed below:


Serving Nation"
Public Cloud: Public cloud is one of the category of
cloud computing where resources and services are offered
to user through internet, self-service based on the world
wide web, through any web based applications and web
based service, to any provider who will be paid as per the
requirement.
Public cloud computing is one of several deployment
models that have been defined. A public Cloud is one in
which the infrastructure and other computational resources
that it comprises are made available to the general public
over the Internet[3].
Community Cloud A community cloud is an another
category of cloud which is used where two or more
organizations that have same kinds of cloud needs so they
share it such as security, compliance and jurisdiction. This
makes it cheaper than an ordinary public cloud.
Community cloud is shared among several organizations
which are managed and secured by all participating
organizations. It is "multitenant" cloud service model[2].
Hybrid Cloud Hybrid cloud is one another category of
clouds .It is combination of other types clouds such as
public, private and community clouds that contain different
attributes and qualities but they club together for offering
the advantage of multiple deployment models to provide
the facility of multicloud System for offering some special
feature of different clouds and design in such a way that the
data can move easily from one model to another.
Hybrid clouds are also used to provide public cloud to
customers while using a private cloud for internal IT [2].
Private Cloud Last but not the least this category of
clouds is used for a single organization , it can be hosted
internally or externally and maintained by its internal or it
can be managed by a third party.

III. SERVICE MODELS
Software as a Service (SaaS)
Platform as a Service (PaaS)
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
Software as a Service (SaaS) model: A SaaS cloud
model the user of cloud computing is based on cloud that
provide software services like developing application and
hosting websites that can be used for the Software
development using Saas model of clouds.it could include e-
commerce, organization specific or other types of software
already installed on the the particular environment and
platform. SaaS feature are rapidly used in the global market
that makes it more popular in the era of web development
and internet. The services can be based on internet
technology email to inventory control and database
processing. Because the service provider hosts both the
software and the data, the user is free to use the service
from anywhere. It provides services as per the demand of
end user in quicker timings. It provide O.S, S/w, h/w, and
network facilities. The vender of SaaS provide us software
applications, hardware structure and also communicate
with the user through a front end portal. The increasing
popularity and facility or services provided by SaaS makes
it as a commonplace for organizations where user and
buyer of technology use and understand where it is suitable
for them.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) model: An operating
system, hardware, and network are provided, and the
customer installs or develops its own software and
applications. The service provide PaaS in the cloud is
defined as a set of software and product development tools
hosted on the provider's infrastructure. The web created
content by developer on the internet on the provider's
platform. It can be defined as a platform that gives web
based software fast and makes it easier and without any
complexity of purchasing and maintaining the software and
infrastructure under it.Salesforce.com, force.com,
GoogleApps are examples of PaaS. The developer of PaaS
need to understand the data portability of the cloud as well
as interoperability of data.Some providers will not allow
software created by their customers to be moved off the
provider's platform. Platform as a Service (PaaS) brings the
advantage that SaaS gain for software, but over the
development of software.
PaaS providers offer a predefined combination of OS
and application servers[1].


Serving Nation"
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) model: give us the
facility of the hardware and network; the consumer
downloads or create their own software, applications and
O.S. It is having similar feture as Amazon Web Services
gives to virtual server instance APIs to on, off, access and
configure their virtual servers and storage. The cloud
computing allows a company to pay for only as much
capacity as is require in an enterprise, and bring more web
based servises as soon as required. . The provider of
services needs to create the infrastructure, and thats it and
also allows the developer to create their own software and
platforms.The responsibility of maintaining and updating
the system falls on the developer and not the provider. This
service provides highly flexibility and requires greater
amount of technical knowledge. Infrastructure as a Service
is a way of delivering Cloud Computing infrastructure
servers, storage, network and operating systems as an on-
demand service. Rather than purchasing servers, software,
datacenter space or network equipment, clients instead buy
those resources as a fully outsourced service on demand.
This capability type provides mainly computational
infrastructure available over the internet (e.g., compute
cycles or storage). IaaS allows organi-zations and
developers to extend their IT infrastructure on an on-
demand basis[4].

V. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES
Following are the advantages of cloud computing:
Reduced Cost: The cost of Cloud technology is very low
that makes it more demandable in the global market. We
can pay as per the services.
Highly Automated: It is not mandatory to update regularly
to update the data .this is again a major concern IT
personnel.
Increased Storage: We can store much more data now in
the cloud and need not to worry about.
Flexibility: Cloud offers more flexibility than past
computing technology and we can add more functionality
to it.
Provide Mobility: User can get information anywhere any
time.
Allows IT to Shift Focus: This technology offers us not to
worry about regular server updates and other computing
issues.
Following are the disadvantages of cloud computing:
Security & Privacy: The main concerns about cloud
security provided to the user and what data we can put in
the cloud and privacy. Users might not be comfortable
handing their data to a cloud.
Dependency: Users can lose control over how they can
store their data in a cloud .So they might end up
dependency over the reserving their data and recovery.
Cost: New research makes it more expensive as it is now in
more demand so this makes it more expensive to use.
VI. CONCLUSIONS
The cloud provides many options for the everyday
computer user as well as large and small businesses. It
opens up the world of computing to a broader range of uses
and increases the ease of use by giving access through any
internet connection. There are also privacy and security
concerns. You have less control over who has access to
your information and little to no knowledge of where it is
stored. You also must be aware of the security risks of
having data stored on the cloud. If you are considering a
cloud service, you should think about how your personal
information and how can be your customers are best be
protected. Carefully review the terms of service or
contracts, and challenge the provider to meet your desire.
