Programming Abstractions for Applications in Cloud Environments
Cloud computing is changing our perception of computing: The Internet is becoming the computer and the software: (a) vast data centers and computing power are available via the Internet (infrastructure as a service), (b) software is available via the Internet as a service (software as a service). Building on the promise of unlimited processing/storage power, applications today process big amounts of data scattered over the cloud and react to events happening across the cloud. Software services must be both standard components to pay off for their provider and highly configurable and customizable to serve competitive needs of multiple tenants.
