Analysis of Elasticity Impact in Hybrid Computational Clouds

Abstract

Hybrid computational clouds are considered an interesting choice in the usage of computational resources in terms of elasticity. However, proper management of elasticity is necessary because computational resources can be provisioned inefficiently, resulting in idle or waste. This paper proposes an evaluation of the elasticity effects on a hybrid cloud environment. As the main result, we found that the elasticity keeps the quality level set to meet the applications running in the hybrid cloud with different workloads.
