Development framework for cloud services

Abstract

Cloud computing has seen a tremendous growth in the last five years. Along with the growth, many cloud types have been marketed. However, from the view of users, there are still barriers to exploit the cloud computing. Not only the migration into clouds is difficult, even so the development and deployment of new services from the beginning could be quite challenges. In this paper, we present a novel development framework for cloud services. Its design is based on abstraction approach and object-oriented programming technique, allowing cloud users to easily and rapidly develop and deploy their services. The approach also enables service migration and interoperability among the different clouds. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2012.
