Cloud systems physically resemble clusters or supercomputers, but
with greater heterogeneity among components, and less coupling, often
without an interconnect at all. Cloud servers are generally accessed
by connecting to their services over the network. Multiple virtual
machines may reside on individual physical machines. Typical tasks
are driven by user connections from the outside to the various "front
end" services (e.g. web sites) which pass traffic on to the "back
end" servers (e.g. databases) to present results to users.
A collection of standalone computers that are networked together. They will
frequently have software installed that allow the coordinated running of other
software across all of these computers. This allows these networked computers
to work together to accomplish computing tasks faster.
