In one of the important aspect of the invention it is provided that a method for retrieval of images from databases, a method of retrieval of Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) deployed on Hybrid Cloud Architecture. CBIR is nothing but retrieving images from a database or library of digital images according to the visual content of the images such as of colors, textures or shapes; In a method for retrieving images related to a query image from a large set of distinct images. It follows an approach to extract the different shape and texture information present in an image. The above features which can be stored in vectors called feature vectors and therefore these are compared to the feature vectors of query image and the image information is sorted in decreasing order of similarity. The processing and storage of the same is done on cloud. The CBIR system is an application built on Windows Azure platform. It is a parallel processing problem where a large set of images have to be operated upon to rank them based on a similarity to a provided query image by the user. Image feature vector extraction is computationally heavy operation and it is performed on windows azure cloud by a Software as a service, the feature vectors are stored in blob storage on the private cloud, to further reduce the cost and security the image database is stored on private cloud built using Microsoft Azure private cloud setup, hence the system is implemented on Hybrid Cloud Architecture.
