An Evolutionary Approach for SLA-based Cloud Resource Provisioning

摘要

As the number of existing cloud vendors rises, resource count and types are ever increasing leading to a need of cloud management solutions which facilitate easy cloud adoption. While providing several services, cloud management's primary role is resource provisioning. In order to meet application needs in terms of resources, cloud developers must carefully choose among the existing offers in order to deploy their applications. The research presented in this paper enables developers to automate the process of resource provisioning by specifying their preference towards resources and resource attributes based on which the system can propose solutions for their requirements.
