Cloud computing is the delivers the computing services over the internet. Cloud services help individuals and organization to use data that are managed by third parties or another person at remote locations. Virtual Machine (VM) is an emulation of a particular computer system. In cloud computing, Virtual machine migration is a useful tool for migrating Operating System instances across multiple physical machines.
