In this paper, we illustrates the ways to improve abilities of the computing environments by using virtualization, single system image (SSI) and hypervisor technologies’ collaboration for goal to improve computational abilities. Recently cloud computing as a new service concept has become popular to provide various services to user such as multi-media sharing, online office software, game and online storage. The cloud computing is bringing together multiple computers and servers in a single environment designed to address certain types of tasks, such as scientific problems or complex calculations. By using virtualization technologies, cloud computing environment is able to virtualize and share resources among different applications with the objective for better server utilization, better load balancing and effectiveness.

This paper targets programmers and developers interested in utilizing parallel programming techniques to enhance application performance. The Oracle Solaris Studio software provides state-of-the-art optimizing and parallelizing compilers for C, C++ and Fortran, an advanced debugger, and optimized mathematical and performance libraries. Also included are an extremely powerful performance analysis tool for profiling serial and parallel applications, a thread analysis tool to detect data races and deadlock in memory parallel programs, and an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The Oracle Message Passing Toolkit software provides the high-performance MPI libraries and associated run-time environment needed for message passing applications that can run on a single system or across multiple compute systems connected with high performance networking, including Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, InfiniBand and Myrinet. Examples of OpenMP and MPI are provided throughout the paper, including their usage via the Oracle Solaris Studio and Oracle Message Passing Toolkit products for development and deployment of both serial and parallel applications on SPARC and x86/x64 based systems. Throughout this paper it is demonstrated how to develop and deploy an application parallelized with OpenMP and/or MPI.
