E-Learning is an efficiently growing tool used for learning. Although with great power comes greater responsibilities because storing the amount of data of a particular subject will require tons and tons of storage. Even if one manages to store the data of few subjects, it would be difficult to carry it to every student. Also, E-Learning is becoming vast each coming day which includes data of many books, blogs, notes, surveys both in video as well as audio format. Storing all this huge informative data is no doubt an extremely tedious task. Moreover, portability of such huge data structure can be exceedingly dicey. To overcome this complication Cloud Computing can majorly help. Cloud helps one keep less focus on the storage and the cynosure will be the content. The reason for this research is to exaggerate the practise of cloud computing with respect to E-Learning with different aspects. In addition to E-Learning there are various vendors who provide their clouds as a service to store, retrieve and implement the particulars whenever and wherever needed. In this paper we will bring forward various clouds used for E-Learning and also their measure of effectiveness. Different Clouds are bound to have different boundaries and limitations like public or private. This will prove as a note to improve various limitations including different clouds. We will be putting light on Virtual Labs, AWS Cloud, Moodle, hypervisors and many more. This paper will be an exploration on Virtual Labs and how interestingly important it is for E-Learning with different aspects like expansion of cloud dynamically, shrinking if not in use, parallel execution, multiple users accessing same cloud.

The advent of cloud computing in recent years has sparked an interest from different organizations, institutions and users to take its advantage. This is a result of the new economic model for the Information Technology (IT) that cloud computing promises. It promises a shift from an organization required to invest heavily for limited IT resources that are internally managed, to a model where the organization can buy or rent resources that are managed by a cloud provider and pay per use. Although the adoption of cloud computing promises various benefits, a successful adoption of cloud computing in an educational institute still requires an understanding of different dynamics and expertise in diverse domains. Currently, there are inadequate guidelines for adopting cloud computing and building trust. Therefore, this paper presents a framework that specifies a number of steps for academic institutes as well as organizations to adopt cloud computing. The framework is designed by taking into account a range of strategic issues and technological factors from a broad cross section of areas of expertise in order to ensure a successful cloud computing adoption.
