Leveraging Online Lab Development: A New Paradigm to Offer Educational Lab Infrastructure as a Cloud Service

摘要

In this work we propose a new paradigm to deliver laboratory server infrastructure as a service (LlaaS). The main difference if compared with other traditional LaaS (laboratory as a service) paradigms concerns the service consumers. Traditional LaaS usually focuses in creating and enabling services for end users of the online laboratory (students, teachers), but a laboratory server infrastructure as a service (proposed with this work) offers services to be consumed by laboratory owners and developers aiming to facilitate its development and deployment.
