ENHANCING PROVIDER'S PROFIT ON CLOUD MARKET INFRASTRUCTURE

Abstract

Cloud computing is a computational model based on consumption of resources, offered by internet and consume its resources under requirement. A service-level agreement (SLA) is a part of a service contract where a service is formally defined. The consumption of resources is public, private, or both and has SLA that normalizes them. The infrastructure and platform services of the cloud are becoming increasingly popular all over the world but resource scheduling and allocation of multiple virtual machines on clouds still a difficult task. Most of companies are determined to reduce their computing cost through the means of virtualization. This demand of reducing the computing cost has led to the innovation of cloud computing. Cloud computing is the sum of Software as a Service (SaaS), Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS). As the demand of resources from user varies with time, load on cloud generally remains low in normal hours and demand of resource remains high during peak hours. Single cloud provider may not have the resources to fulfill user’s requests at the peak hour and on the contrary there may be some providers who are having under-utilized resources. To root out this limitation concept of cloud federation was invented. With this paradigm, a new algorithm that deals with the resource management in this environment is needed. Cloud federation allows outsourcing at peak time i.e. underutilized providers can give their resources on rent basis to other IaaS providers. When number of user request goes to high, single cloud provider does not work efficiently so need to research in new resource allocation algorithm which shares the common resource of multiple clouds to satisfy the customer requirement. Cloud federation offers better computing through improved utilization and reduced administration and infrastructure costs. Federation allows a provider to dynamically outsource resources to other providers in response to demand variations. It also allows a provider that has underused resources to rent part of them to other providers. Abstract Enhancing provider’s profit on cloud market infrastructure page v Resource allocation and scheduling also impact in federated clouds, where resources can be bought from other members of cloud federation. Optimization of these issues can bring the advantage of improving the energy savings and load balancing in large datacenters. When many of the cloud providers join the federation, our policies to improve the cloud providers profit shows that in which conditions cloud providers getting for profit. In this thesis use four conditions (allocation with in provider, insourcing, outsourcing, and both (insourcing and outsourcing)) and find out the results that give valuable information to cloud service provider. This approach tries to improve the cloud providers’ profit. I have used the CloudSim to find-out the results, results show that how cloud federation help to improve their profit. In this thesis enhancement for cloud provider profit is discussed and an algorithm for federated cloud environment has also been elaborated, which focuses to improve the cloud provider’s profit.
