Abstract

Nowadays cloud computing can be considered as a key element of modern ICT systems, changing the technological and architectural aspects that these systems are designed and managed. The number and variety of applications, exploiting the advantages of this new computing paradigm, is increasing, emerging a new market of services and resources. Modern applications, from enterprise software to mobile and social networking apps are adapted and become available through the Cloud, allowing wider adoption and advanced functionality. Besides the numerous technical and technological advancements, cloud computing also leverages new business models and value networks. To this direction more entities are involved in the service delivery process and marketplaces are created to ease the development of applications through reusability and aggregation of services and resources. In this paper we present an innovative mechanism for the resolution of the customers' requirements which enhances the process of selecting cloud services from the business point of view.
