In recent years, Cloud computing is gaining much popularity as it can efficiently utilize the computing resources and hence can contribute to the issue of green IT. So to make the Cloud services commercialized, Cloud markets are necessary and are being developed. As the increasing numbers of various Cloud services are rapidly evolving in the Cloud market, how to select the best and optimal services will be a great challenge. In this paper we present a Cloud service selection framework in the Cloud market that uses a recommender system (RS) which helps a user to select the best services from different Cloud providers (CP) that matches his/her requirements. The RS recommends a service based on the QoS and Virtual Machine (VM) factors of difference CPs. The experimental results show that our Cloud service recommender system (CSRS) can effectively recommend a good combination of Cloud services to consumers.

A cloud computing is one of a parallel and distributed computing. The cloud computing provides some service for user with virtual resources. However, a user's service request does not show a time pattern. As a result, each resource also shows a different availability at the same time. This difference affects a quality of service (QoS) and a resource selection for users. Therefore, we propose the resource availability-based multi auction model for cloud service reservation and resource brokering system. The proposed system is to select the proper resource provider based on the users' request. The proposal adopts the multi phase of the auction to transact resources. The system evaluates the available factor of each resource on the auction phase, and finally reserves the service on the adaptive queue. The proposed model shows the better performance than other existing method.

A Smart Building, one that uses automated processes to control its operations, refers in this study to one that uses both Internet of Things (IoT) devices and cloud services software. Cloud service providers (e.g. Amazon, Google, and Microsoft) have recently providedIoT cloud platform application services on IoT devices. According to Postscapes, there are now 152 IoT cloud platforms. Choosing one for a smart building is challenging. We selected Microsoft Azure IoT Hub and Amazon's AWS (Amazon Web Services) IoT. The two platforms were evaluated and selected from a smart building perspective. Each prototype was evaluated on two different IoTplatforms, assuming a typical smart building scenario. The selection was based on information and experience gained from developing the prototype system using the IoT cloud platform. The assessment made in this evaluation may be used to select an IoTcloud platform for smart buildings in the future.

In spite of many advantages of cloud computing, security concerns are a barrier in users' adopting the cloud service. In this paper, we evaluate relative priorities between security attributes of ISO 7498-2 standards affecting overall security quality in cloud computing. For an objective evaluation, the fuzzy AHP(Analytic hierarchical process) is applied. The evaluation results represented the relative priority with concrete number can be an effective management method to choose and develop the cloud computing service.

Cloud computing provided as a service type by sharing IT resources cannot be activated unless the issue of information security is solved. The enterprise attempts to maximize the efficiency of information and communication resources by introducing cloud computing services. In comparison to the United States and Japan, however, cloud computing service in korea has not been activated because of a lack of confidence in the security. This paper suggests core evaluation criteria and added evaluation criteria which is removed the redundancy of the security controls from existing ISMS for Korean cloud computing through a comparative analysis between domestic and foreign security controls of cloud certification scheme and guidelines and information security management system. A cloud service provider certified ISMS can minimize redundant and unnecessary certification assessment work by considering added evaluation criteria.

클라우드 컴퓨팅이 활성화됨에 따라 다양한 클라우드 서비스가 대중적으로 보급되고, 그에 따른 클라우드 컴퓨팅 관련 제품들을 IT시장에서 쉽게 접할 수 있게 되었다. 일반적으로 IT 제품군에 대해서 보안성평가를 수행하고, 그 결과 값을 통해 소비자에게 객관적인 지침으로 활용될 수 있는 국제 표준인 공통평가기준에서는 보안 제품군에 대한 보안목표명세서인 보호프로파일을 제공하고 있다. 하지만 현재 일반적인 IT제품군에 대한 보호프로파일은 존재하나 클라우드 관련 제품군에 대해서는 보호프로파일이 존재하지 않아 보안성평가를 위한 방법이 없는 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 공통평가기준을 준수하는 클라우드 환경에 적용 가능한 보안기능요구사항을 도출하고자 한다. 도출한 보안기능요구사항을 통해 클라우드 제품군에 대한 보안성을 적용하기 위한 평가 방법으로 사용될 수 있다.

최근 클라우드 서비스 공급자들은 세계적으로 증가하는 고객의 수요에 대응하기 위하여, 다양한 지역에 데이터센터들을 구축하고 시스템의 규모를 확장시키고 있다. 클라우드는 통합된 자원을 이용하기 때문에 부하 분산(load balancing)을 통해서 시스템의 성능 및 안정성을 향상시킬 수 있다. 하지만 지역적으로 분산된 데이터센터들을 운영하는 클라우드 컴퓨팅 환경에서는 자원 부하의 분산과 서비스 응답 속도(service response time) 사이의 상관 관계를 고려할 필요가 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 대부분의 클라우드 서비스 공급자들은 고정된 최소 서비스 응답 속도를 서비스 수준 협약(SLA: Service-Level Agreements)을 제시하고 있는 현실이다. 이와 같이 SLA에 최소 서비스 응답 속도를 임의로 고정할 경우, 거리차이가 있는 데이터센터(SLA에 명시된 응답 속도 보다 느린 데이터센터)에는 부하가 분산되기 어렵다. 따라서 지역적으로 분산된 데이터센터 환경에서는 응답 속도에 대한 가변 SLA를 적용할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 지역적으로 분산된 데이터센터를 운영하는 클라우드 컴퓨팅 환경에서 가변 응답 속도를 적용하기 위한 방법으로써 서비스 응답 속도와 가격을 고려한 자동화된 SLA 협상 메커니즘을 적용하고 그 유효성을 평가하였다. 시뮬레이션을 이용한 실험 결과를 통해서 SLA 협상을 통한 가변 SLA를 이용하는 방법이 고정된 SLA를 이용하는 방법에 비해서 더 높은 SLA 보장률을 지원하고 클라우드 공급자에게 더 높은 수익을 제공함을 확인하였다.

Cloud computing service is a next generation IT service which has pay-per-use billing model and supports elastically provisioning IT infra according to user demand. However it has many potential threats originating from outsourcing/supporting service structure that customers 'outsource' their own data and provider 'supports' infra, platform, application services, the complexity of applied technology, resource sharing and compliance with a law, etc. In activation of Cloud service, we need objective assessment standard to ensure safety and reliability which is one of the biggest obstacles to adopt cloud service. So far information security management system has been used as a security standard for a security management and IT operation within an organization. As for Cloud computing service it needs new security management and assessment different from those of the existing in-house IT environment. In this paper, to make a Information Security Management System considering cloud characteristics key components from threat management system are drawn and all control domain of existing information security management system as a control components are included. Especially we designed service security management to support service usage in an on-line self service environment and service contract and business status.

최근 클라우드 규제의 변화에 따라 국내 금융권의 클라우드 전환이 확산되면서 주요 인프라로서 클라우드 활용에 관한 연구·개발이 관심을 받고 있다. 2016년도 10월 이전에는 금융회사의 모든 전산시스템에 대하여 물리적 망분리를 적용하여야 하는 등의 과도한 규제로 퍼블릭 클라우드 활용에 어려움이 있었다. 이후 전자금융감독규정이 점차 완화되면서 클라우드 이용이 활성화되고 현재에 이르게 되었다. 안전한 클라우드 이용을 위해서는 금융분야 클라우드 컴퓨팅 서비스 이용 가이드에서 제시하는 업무 연속성 계획 및 출구 전략을 수립하고, 안전성 확보 조치 방안을 마련하며, 클라우드 서비스 제공자의 안전성 평가, 자체 정보보호위원회 심의·의결 및 감독 당국의 보고 등의 내부통제를 준수하여야 한다. 본 고에서는 금융분야의 클라우드 전환 사례 조사를 토대로 전환 동향과 전환 요인, 업권별 특징 및 규제 변화에 대해 살펴보고, 향후 클라우드 이용 환경 변화를 전망해본다.

Cloud computing emerges as a new paradigm for deploying, managing and offering IT resources as a service anytime, anywhere on any devices. Cloud computing data center stores many IT resources through resource integration. So cloud computing system has to be designed by technology and policy to make effective use of IT resources. In other words, cloud vendor has to provide high quality services to all user and mitigate the dissipation of IT resources. However, vendors need to predict the performance of cloud services and the use of IT resources before releasing cloud service. For solving the problem, this research presents cloud service modeling on network environment and evaluation index for availability optimization of cloud service. We also study how to optimize an amount of requested cloud service and performance of datacenter using CloudSim toolkit.
