Appliance of Cloud Computing on E-learning

The looking education on the internet, the wonderful web-based education environment has become one of the warm points on researching remote education. Cloud computing is rising rapidly, with applications in almost all area, including education.Cloud computing builds on decades of research in virtualization, distributed computing, utility computing, and more recently networking, web and software services. E-learning systems usually require many hardware and software resources. Cloud computing technologies although in theirearly stages, have managed to change the way applications are going tobe developed and accessed. The biggest players in the field of e-learning software have now versions of the base applications that are cloud oriented. However, the current models of elearning ecosystems lack the support of underlying infrastructures, which can dynamically allocate the required computation and storage resources for e-learningecosystems. These technologies are aimed at runningapplications as services over the internet on a flexible infrastructure.Cloud computing provides a low cost solution to educational institutionsfor faculty, for their researchers and students. This paper presents the impact of usingcloud computing architectures upon e-learning solutions development. We combined various technologies to achieve this objective. We introduces the characteristics of the current E-Learning and then analyses the concept of cloud computing and describes the architecture of cloudcomputing platform by combining the features of E-Learning. We presents the impact on using cloud computing for e-learning solutions. Keywords-Cloud computing, Distributed computing, grid computing, Scalability, utility computing.
