Cloud Computing (CC) is a promising technology due to its pervasive features, such as online storage, high scalability, and seamless accessibility, in that it plays an important role reduction of the capital cost workforce, which attracts organizations conduct their businesses financial activities over cloud. Even though CC great innovation aspect computing with ease access, also has some drawbacks. With increase cloud usage, security issues are proportional increase. To address these, there been much work done this domain, whereas research considering growing constrained applications provided by Internet Things (IoT) smart city networks still lacking. In survey, we provide comprehensive analysis CC-enabled IoT present state-of-the-art area. Finally, future possible areas implementation consideration given discuss open issues.
