The load balancing problem is the most divergent job to be achieved while dealing with Cloud Computing. Along with load balancing accomplishment, various access Control mechanisms are to be forked with. DAC, MAC,RBAC are such access controls that have already been developed. But as the number of clients are trafficking the network, so do the problems. This paper deals with all such problems which are posing a great threat to the users while accessing the internet. It does all this by checking the specifications of virtual machines by the use of surveys. It will help in saving time as well as cost factor.

Document analysis/ retrieval system plays crucial role to strengthen any information retrieval system. There are various processing stages associated with a document analysis system, such as feature extraction stage, semantic representation stage, dimensionality reduction stage and similarity measure stage. Researchers are contributing well in every stage to improve the performance of the document analysis system. This short paper considers word affinity graph/ matrix for further improvement so that semantic representation can be given more precisely. This is accomplished by incorporating weight component in the word affinity matrix to provide significance for degree of distribution. Theoretical study on both word affinity matrix and weighted word affinity matrix shows the significance offering by them on widely distributed document terms.

Cloud computing is used to store and share data by anyone from anywhere in the world. It provides scalable and on demand self services. The cloud data expect maximum security at rest state as well as at transit state. Service providers provide security to the data in the cloud and the data owner also uses some cryptographic techniques for data security. They may use symmetric cryptography or asymmetric cryptography. If the data owner use same cryptographic key for all data files, they cannot share the partial amount of data files. Because of that the owner using the separate encryption/ decryption keys for each file in the cloud. Here to provide security and avoid network burden, the data owner can aggregate all decryption keys into a single key. This aggregate key can decrypt any subset of delegated cipher text blocks.

Cloud computing is a technique used to refer web based services and development. It is a ubiquitous services, means anyone can access from anywhere in the world at anytime. It provides application, platform and resources to the user. It is a virtualized pool of resources. These services are provided by CSP. The main features of cloud are flexibility, elasticity, on-demand services, metered services, etc. Some large companies offer data storage spaces which are leased to others. So the devices connected to internet can achieve these services. Cloud stores data in database and replicated in different virtual machines, that can be placed anywhere in world. This may leads to some major security issues in cloud storage and retrieval. In order to prevent unauthorized access, access control techniques can be used. A user authentication verifies identity of user. While providing services; we are concern about security and privacy of the information. This survey paper introduces a detailed analysis of security and privacy preserving techniques, and a comparison among various access control mechanism.

Database management system a very strong concept used that is relational database management system. A relational database is often operated by means of a structured query language (SQL). When composing SQL-queries one must have an understanding of the SQL syntax to be able to produce a query the database can execute. Additionally, one must be familiar with the attributes and relations in the database to be able to retrieve the data desired. When one wants to search the available data stored in the relational database, these requirements can be discouraging. In this case keyword-based search functionality could improve the accessibility of the data. The main advantage of RDBMS is its fast accurate, standard way to store data on permanent basis extraction of data is done using SQL its secure (different level of security) data can be managed in proper manner. ACID properties are features if RDBMS stands for Accuracy Consistency Isolation Durability.
