Abstract:

To organize and bring together resource providers and consumers in cloud environment to meet a common goal, support for negotiation is required to set up an agreement that clearly states the QoS necessary, limitations on resource utilization and penalties during violation of the objective. In this paper we discuss SLA foundations with use cases. We also propose SLA lifecycle in detail with eight steps which gives more detailed and comprehensive finegrained information.

Keywords:

SLA, customer satisfaction, negotiation, penalties.
