Cloud-bursting – getting first-rate performance form the cloud

No Comments

From Computer World:

Cloud computing normally describes implementation of dynamically and often virtualised resources as a service across the Internet . Cloudbursting is one of the terms connected with cloud computing at the moment.
Using cloud computing models for any application and associated traffic could be costly, and using it for handling the spikes in a company’s usage patterns might also be laden with issues because of the time required to get the system set-up and seeded with the data. Ramping up in the cloud is difficult since it might take minutes to fire up more hosts but a company’s peak requirement may perhaps last less time than that.
