Multi-layered Service Suite Conceptualization in Cloud Computing

Abstract

In this paper, we are going to propose multi-layered service suite in cloud computing environment. Different cloud computing services are already classified by the researchers. Each of services serves distinct purpose. Here, we propose seven layers of service abstractions which are further named as multi-layered service suite in cloud computing scenario. Each type of service layer is depicted combining different utility services. Proposed service layers have distinct tasks for the purpose of improving service handling. Grouping of services has been conceptualized based on the common context of specific services. One service handling algorithm is further proposed for guiding each ‘cloud service request’ efficiently as the overall cloud utilization increases while handling a huge number of requests from the client side. Here, we propose a formula for determining cloud utilization. Cloud utilization is increased as the number of requests handled by the services grows. This proposed multi-layered service suite is a logical and modularized separation, which helps in describing of each service layer during the design process.
