“…It lacks a process for differentiating between possible users and the recommended action to be taken on SLA formation and violation. Fan and Perros [28] differentiated between biased and unbiased feedback based on the familiarity and consistency of the feedback. They proposed a trust value range and ranked users based on that value.…”

The constant increase in the growth of the cloud market creates new challenges for cloud service providers. One such challenge is the need to avoid possible SLA violations and their consequences through good SLA management. Researchers have proposed various frameworks and have made significant advances in managing SLAs from the perspective of both cloud users and providers. However, none of these approaches guides the service provider on the necessary steps to take for SLA violation abatement; that is, the prediction of possible SLA violations, the process to follow when the system identifies the threat of SLA violation, and the recommended action to take to avoid SLA violation. In this paper, we approach this process of SLA violation detection and abatement from a risk management perspective. We propose a Risk Management-based Framework for SLA violation abatement (RMF-SLA) following the formation of an SLA which comprises SLA monitoring, violation prediction, and decision recommendation. Through experiments, we validate and demonstrate the suitability of the proposed framework for assisting cloud providers to minimize possible service violations and penalties.

“…Reputation, or trustworthiness, is a key element in SLA management as it assists in the selection of a reliable service provider [14] [35]. The literature proposes techniques with which a consumer can score the reliability of a provider [14,[36][37][38] using approaches like the IP-based method [39], adaptive credibility model [40] and trust management model [36]. Approaches in this class are discussed in Section 5.…”

“…Self-adaptation allows both the data collector and the infrastructure monitoring service to adjust resources or monitor time intervals. The IaaS monitoring layer is based on low-level information and related metrics; however, the authors of [36] do not describe those metrics. Self-adaptation depends on customized policies with the help of experts, but these policy functionalities are integrated with the monitoring module which does not provide flexibility or a user friendly policy enforcement mechanism.…”

“…If consumers give good feedback on every successful transaction, this will result in a high reputation value for the provider; the converse will be true for unsuccessful transactions. This scoring method allows false, biased and unreliable feedback to skew the results, which can impact the reputation of the provider [36]. Wang et al [39] speculated that transaction validity could be verified by analyzing the IP addresses of consumers.…”

“…Authors [23] proposed HITCloud model to handle some of the security issues of the cloud like data integrity, privacy using a feedback mechanism. The feedback from users will be filtered according to their reliability and accuracy of accomplishment, which in turn will be calculated based on node trust and region trust.…”

Abstract-Cloud is the recent emerging technology in all aspects. The basic concern with the usage of this Cloud Technology is security. Security poses a major drawback with data storage, resource utilization, virtualization, etc. In the highly competitive environment the assurances are insufficient for the customers to identify the trust worthy cloud service providers. As a result all the entities in cloud and cloud computing environment should be trusted by each other and the entities that have communication should have valid trust on each other. Trust being the profound component in any network has attracted many researchers for research in various ways. The models developed so far are platform dependent and are not valid for heterogeneous platforms. An efficient model which can be ported on any platform is the current research trend in the research world. Our model is platform independent and also helps in calculating trust while migrating to another platform. The result shows that the proposed model is much more efficient in terms of computation time.
