FCSM: Fuzzy Cloud Selection Model using QoS Parameters

Abstract

The global demand of web users for Cloud computing in the various public domain has gained tremendous attention for the Cloud service providers (CSP) to satisfy the specifications of different Cloud users. A number of challenges such as migration of data from one Cloud to another, dynamic demand handing of Cloud resources, allocation of suitable Cloud to the Cloud users are the key challenges of Cloud computing that can reduce the computing capabilities offered by the Cloud. The adoption of the Cloud has spurred competition among CSPs because each CSP provides cloud services at varying costs and with varying options. To improve the Quality of Service (QoS) experience of Cloud users and overcome the challenge of choosing a suitable Cloud to meet the specific requirements of users in different applications, a Fuzzy Cloud Selection Model (FCSM) is proposed with different selection parameters.
