Abstract

Cloud computing is a conceptual paradigm that is receiving a great deal of interest from a variety of major commercial organisations. By building systems which run within cloud computing infrastructures, problems related to scalability and availability can be reduced. At the time of writing, Amazon Web Services (AWS) [1] is one of the most widely used infrastructures. AWS consists of a number of different components, which can be used in combination or alone. One usage model is to use Elastic Compute Cloud instances to process information and to use the Simple Queue Service (SQS) to handle requests and responses.
