Abstract

Cloud computing is the next stage in the evolution of computational and data handling infrastructure, establishing scale out from clients, to clusters to clouds. With the use of a case study, Microsoft Windows Azure has been applied to Space Situational Awareness (SSA) creating a system that is robust and scalable, demonstrating how to harness the capabilities of cloud computing. The generic aspects of cloud computing are discussed throughout.
