Cloud Computing is a novel paradigm for the provision of computing infrastructure, which aims to shift the location of the computing infrastructure to the network in order to reduce the costs of management and maintenance of hardware and software resources. Cloud computing has a service-oriented architecture in which services are broadly divided into three categories: Infrastructure-as-a- Service (IaaS), which includes equipment such as hardware, Storage, servers, and networking components are made accessible over the Internet; Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), which includes hardware and software computing platforms such as virtualized servers, operating systems, and the like; and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), which includes software applications and other hosted services. To obtain accurate estimation of the complete probability distribution of the request response time and other important performance indicators, this model allows cloud operators to determine the relationship between the number of servers and input buffer size, on one side, and the performance indicators such as mean number of tasks in the system, blocking probability, and probability that a task will obtain immediate service, on the other.
