A Roadmap to Develop Multi Cloud Computing Systems

Abstract

Background/Objectives: The main objectives are to provide important milestones in the construction of Multi Cloud Computing Systems (MCCS). Methods/Statistical Analysis: In this study, organizational need of MCCS is identified which in turn supports best of breed cloud services to users with optimal solution on demand. These results in core IT organizations are moving to offer cloud infrastructure services to their enterprises while ensuring governance and control over costs. Findings: This change in paradigm of cloud adoption from shadow IT to a strategic imperative is a critical step towards MCCS. Thus the growing demand of MCCS for enterprises originates research opportunities for scholars. This study emphasizes on the design issues to be considered for multi cloud architecture, requirements for various groups involved in the development of MCCS and types of architectures like cloud hosted proxy, proxy as a service, point-to-point proxy and on-premises proxy for MCCS. Applications/Improvements: In order to reduce complexity and cost of MCCS architecture and to improve performance of application executing in MCCS, by making Cloud Broker as a proxy instead of using above listed types of MCCS architectures.
