Cloud Computing Applications in Biomedicine

Abstract

Today's biology is characterized by a rising requirement for real-time handling of massive quantities of data. New needs for information and communication tools (ICT) result from this. These needs can be satisfied by cloud computing, which also has many benefits like cost reductions, flexibility, and scaling when using ICT. This chapter aims to examine the idea of cloud computing and its associated applications in the field of biomedicine. The researchers provide a thorough examination of the application of the cloud computation method in biological analysis, broken down into framework, infrastructures, and service layers, along with a suggestion in handling huge quantities of data in the field of medicine. The chapter begins by outlining the suitable applications and technical approaches for cloud computing. Second, the cloud computing elements of the high-end computing model are examined. Finally, a discussion of this technology's promise and actual uses in biomedical study is presented.
