SLA-based Secure Cloud Application Development

SLA-Based Continuous Security Assurance in Multi-Cloud DevOps

Multi-cloud applications, i.e. those that are deployed over multiple independent Cloud providers, pose a number of challenges to the security-aware development and operation. Security assurance in such applications is hard due to the lack of insights of security controls applied by Cloud providers and the need of controlling the security levels of all the components and layers at a time. This p...

Trusted SLA Monitoring for Billing System in Public Cloud computing Environment

This paper presents about a secure and non-obstructive billing system using the concept THEMIS. The main objective of this system is to provide a full-fledged trusted, billing system tailored from a cloud computing environment. The SLA (Service Level Agreement) sharing is done between user and CSPs (Cloud Service Provider). S-Mon forgery-resistive SLA monitoring mechanism is devised by TPM (Tru...

rSLA: Monitoring SLAs in Dynamic Service Environments

Today’s application environments combine Cloud and onpremise infrastructure, as well as platforms and services from different providers to enable quick development and delivery of solutions to their intended users. The ability to use Cloud platforms to stand up applications in a short time frame, the wide availability of Web services, and the application of a continuous deployment model has led...

M4Cloud - Generic Application Level Monitoring for Resource-shared Cloud Environments

Cloud computing is a promising concept for the implementation of scalable on-demand computing infrastructures, where resources are provided in a self-managing manner based on predefined customers requirements. A Service Level Agreement (SLA), which is established between a Cloud provider and a customer, specifies these requirements. It includes terms like required memory consumption, bandwidth ...
