Abstract :
With a huge number of resources, users and services, E-Learning systems may encounter some challenges regarding dynamic concurrency, access to resources or handling the rapid content storage. Also adds to these issues, optimization and control of resources and costs. Through cloud computing, we can not only answer these needs but also provide an architecture that guarantees better availability, broad scalability, and a higher quality of service. This paper explores the cloud computing advantages in the learning field by the integration of several technologies such as virtualization, SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) and grid computing in order to improve our pervasive learning environment: MADAR Learning.
