Abstract

Cloud services are gaining popularity and the demand for cloud space is increasing Lot of research is happening in the field of cloud management and marketing. Effective handling of Cloud service is an important component of cloud architecture and can even be used to act as an intermediate layer between consumers and providers or as a platform for launching marketplace services. Cloud market is very versatile with the concept of pay-as- you-go. The major disadvantage, here, is the hourly billing cycle as user has to pay based on the hourly consumption and most of the consumers may not use full duration for which they have made payment. Majority of cloud service providers give discounts to long-term customers; however, these benefits are not available to transient customers with light computing requirements. A brand-new position, called cloud broker can be proposed, to lower prices for transient cloud consumers. A cloud broker is an intermediate agency between cloud users and providers. A system is proposed where facility to rent a number of reserved Virtual Machines (VMs) from a cloud provider for a reasonable rate, only for the duration for which they are using the cloud. Like cloud providers, cloud brokers use shorter billing cycles. Cloud brokers can dramatically lower prices for users in this way. Cloud brokers can profit from the pricing difference between reserved and on-demand VMs in addition to lowering user costs. This work focuses on the tailor made configuration of cloud brokers and VMs.
