Abstract: Cloud computing is becoming much popular due to many of its advantages like high performance, distributed computing, high security, pay per use modules etc. . . . Cloud is evolved from simple networking applications. Grid/Cluster/Utility Computing helped formation of basic infrastructure as a service concept. Distributed concurrent and parallel processing with service oriented architecture set a platform for virtualization of resources, making cloud computing possible. This paper talks on the IaaS(Infrastructure as a Service) model of the cloud computing. Authors of this paper, gathered, analysed and drafted all the up to date information on the IaaS. The paper thus discuss in detail the types of infrastructures that can be made available as service with all issues regarding designing and implementing IaaS. Thus the paper can be seen as the IaaS cheat sheet as well as documentation which discusses in brief the historical growth of Information communication technology (ICT) towards cloud computing.
