Bhushan N B

Abstract: The recent technology term Cloud computing involves deployment of remote server groups and networks software, allowing data storage centralization and access to the online computer resources or services. The increasing demand for cloud services and also the increase in number of cloud service providers providing the same functionality have created a problem for cloud users to select the best cloud service providers as per their requirements. So there is a need for solution to help the cloud users. This paper identifies required Quality of Service (QoS) to be considered while selecting a best Cloud service provider and proposed a new methodology to rank the service provider using Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) with the help of Weighted Rankings.

Keywords: Cloud computing, remote server, network software, storage centralization, AHP, Weighted Rankings
