Abstract

Cloud computing is emerging at the following three major trends — service orientation, virtualization and standardization of computing through the Internet. Cloud computing enables users and developers to use services without knowledge of, nor control over the technology infrastructure that supports them. In this era, Private cloud is now became popular by achieving a great efficiency of resources as well as improved to manage IT resources and services within an enterprise or organization. Cloud Storage is an attractive concept in IT field since it allows the resources to be provisioned according to the user needs. In private cloud resources are provided over intranet within an organization. In the studied research paper the implementation steps of private cloud is given. In this Paper, first we have to establish a private cloud and then we are going to measure the performance factors that is CPU , Memory Usage using System monitoring tools so that it gives the better evaluation under different circumstances of deployment of private cloud .After implementing this, We will capable to measure performance factors on private cloud.

Introduction

Cloud Computing represents a strategic generational shift in how IT operates. It is a model promising more efficient use of hardware resources through virtualization. Cloud Computing is a web processing with large amount of resource. The user of the cloud can obtain the service thought network (in both internet and intranet). Cloud computing is a computing environment, where resources such as computing power, storage, network and software are abstracted and provided as services on the internet in a remotely accessible fashion. There are four main type of cloud: 1) Public cloud: The cloud computing resource is shared outside, anyone can use it and some payment maybe need. 2) Private cloud: It is opposite to public cloud, private cloud’s resource is limit to a group of people, like a staff of a company etc. 3) Hybrid cloud: this is a mixture of previous two clouds, some cloud computing resource is shared outside but some don’t. 4) Community cloud: this is a special cloud to make use of cloud computing features. More than one community shares a cloud to share and reduce the cost of computing system. Private cloud refers to a cloud infrastructure that is internal to an organization and is usually not available to the general public. A private cloud infrastructure is normally operated and managed by the organization that owns it. In this , we are using Ubuntu OS & EUCALYPTUS open source tool for developing a private cloud. Eucalyptus highly relies on the Virtualization technology. The cloud usually provides a virtual machine to the user and a physical machine can run more than one virtual machine (instance). Users can run self-created images (operation system with self provided application) or provided default images. The architecture has many advantages: A physical machine can play the rules of different operation systems, and less physical machines are needed in the network. This greatly reduces the budget of computer system set up. Eucalyptus tool has the following characteristics: Auto-Scaling - Allows application developers to scale Eucalyptus cloud resources up or down in order to maintain performance Elastic Load Balancing - A service that distributes incoming application traffic and service calls across multiple Eucalyptus workload instances, providing greater application fault tolerance.

Conclusion

This chapter provides the summary of the proposed research work. In this Way we will implement private cloud for organization & measures the important factors which affect the performance of private cloud. Private cloud for Educational Institutions mainly helps the institutes in eliminating under utilization of their existing resources and improves security since the management of the data is controlled internally.
