Abstract
Cloud Computing is becoming a revolutionizing computing paradigm. It offers various types of services and applications that are being delivered in the internet cloud. The services aim at providing reliable, fault tolerant dynamic computing environment to the user and offers computing resources as per demand. Skype, Dropbox, and Yahoo mail are some of the cloud services that have major impact in our lives. Several measures are taken to maintain the quality of its service in the cloud and to make IT infrastructure available with low cost. This paper presents various aspects of Cloud Computing, its implementation features, challenges and also explores the potential scope for research. The major section of this paper includes surveys of studies related to the possibilities of integrating Mobile Agents in Cloud Computing, since these technologies appear to be promising and marketable. Thus, the paper focuses on resolving challenges and bolstering services of Cloud Computing by utilizing Mobile Agent technology in various aspects of Cloud Computing.
