The article analyses the possibility of how Cloud Computing can be used by libraries to organise activities online. In order to achieve a uniform understanding of the essence of technology SaaS, IaaS, and PaaS, the article discusses the Cloud Computing services, which can be used for the relocation of libraries to the Internet. The improvement of the general activity of libraries in the digital age, the analysis of the international experience in the libraries are examples. Also the article discusses the results of a survey of the Lithuanian scientific community that confirms that 90% of the scientific community is in the interest of getting full access to e-publications online. It is concluded that the decrease in funding for libraries, Cloud Computing can be an economically beneficial step, expanding the library services and improving their quality.

Cloud Computing Services

As technology continues to change, the landscape of the work of librarians and libraries continue to adapt and adopt innovations that support their services. Technology also continues to be an essential tool for dissemination, retrieving, storing, and accessing the resources and information. Cloud computing is an essential component employed to carry out these tasks. The concept of cloud computing has long been a tool utilized in libraries. Many libraries use OCLC to catalog and manage resources and share resources, WorldCat, and other library applications that are cloud-based services. Cloud computing services are used in the library automation process. Using cloud-based services can streamline library services, minimize cost, and the need to have designated space for servers, software, or other hardware to perform library operations. Cloud computing systems with the library consolidate, unify, and optimize library operations such as acquisitions, cataloging, circulation, discovery, and retrieval of information.

Modern Cryptography

Cloud computing is the movement of enlisting computing services like organization servers, accumulating databases, arranging, programming examination over the Internet. Companies offering these computing services are known as cloud providers and typically charge for cloud computing services based on usage, similar to how you are billed for water or electricity at home. It enables the companies to consume a compute resource, such as a Virtual Machine (VM), storage or an application, as a utility—just like electricity—rather than building and maintaining large computing materials in the house. Though servers are greatly protected against unauthorized access, there are incidents where classified data stored on servers are accessed by the maintenance staffs. So, the security plays a major role in cloud storage as when the user stores the data in the cloud, it stays there and anybody accessing it cannot be known at all. Hence, this paper mainly deals with the idea of storing data securely in the cloud using Symmetric and Asymmetric Cryptography algorithms including AES, 3DES, Blowfish, RSA along with modern Steganography LSB algorithm for wireless communication which hides the key inside the cover image.

Service Assurance

The advent of computers and other communication technologies led to major transformations in the way library services are rendered and the profession practiced. The libraries have been automated, networked, and are now moving towards paperless or virtual libraries. This chapter examines various facets of cloud computing, describes types and applications. It also outlines the benefits and challenges of cloud computing in academic libraries. Further, the chapter gives direction about the use of cloud computing services to the library professionals and academic libraries in Nigeria. This chapter may be helpful in generating cloud-based services for academic libraries. The chapter suggests that quality service assurance by cloud providers must be ensured, upgrading of internet bandwidth for fast access and quick information dissemination that would improve academic library services.

Technology Resources

Cloud computing is the dynamic delivery of information technology resources and capabilities as a service over the Internet. Cloud computing is a style of computing in which dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources are provided as a service over the Internet. It generally incorporates infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS). [1] Load balancing is one of the biggest challenges in the cloud computing. The concept of load balancing is to equally distribute the workload, resources across all the nodes to guarantee that all the nodes have equal load i.e. no single node is over loaded. As we all know that cloud computing services are mainly product based so in this approach we are using different product based priority queues for different services.

In order to solve the trust problems between users and cloud computing service providers in cloud computing services, the existing trust evaluation technology and access control technology in the cloud computing service are analyzed. And the evaluation index of cloud computing is also analyzed. Users can calculate the relevant indicators of cloud computing service according to their own business goals, and choose the appropriate cloud computing services according to their own trust need. In addition, the reliability assessment method of users based on the service process is proposed. Cloud computing access control system can be used for user credibility evaluation, and it can handle user access requests according to user's creditability. In the study, a cloud computing service trust evaluation tool is designed, and the modeling and architecture designs of trust evaluation are also given. The effectiveness of the method is verified by experiments on cloud computing service evaluation methods.
