Abstract

Cloud computing is an Information Technology (IT) model that provides convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services), which can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort and service provider interaction. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a new trend setter in the field of cloud computing which recently emerged as a new architype for hosting and delivering services on the internet. This study will discuss the characteristics and benefits of operating Virtual Web-Hosting together with Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) model of cloud computing. Moreover, this study will also highlight the architectural principles, main concepts, and state of the art implementation and challenges of virtual web-hosting on Infrastructure as a service (IaaS).
