Web-Based KNHANES System in Cloud Computing

Abstract

Cloud computing is an internet-based technology, providing services to the virtualized IT environment,and allowing users to add or remove resources of hardware or software at their discretion. Since Cloudcomputing can construct virtually integrated environments out of multiple local computing environments,various information services can be provided by it. In addition, state organizations also strive to buildthe cloud computing environments due to the benefits of reduced costs to introduce the system andof reduced time to build and provide the IT services. This study suggests a web-based cloud computingsystem for the computing environments, to be applied for the Korean National Health and NutritionExamination Survey (KNHANES) by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, Republic of Korea.
