Verifying Cloud Services: Present and Future
Abstract
As cloud-based services gain popularity in both private and
enterprise domains, cloud consumers are still lacking in tools
to verify that these services work as expected. Such tools
should consider properties such as functional correctness,
service availability, reliability, performance and security guar-
antees. In this paper we survey existing work in these ar-
eas and identify gaps in existing cloud technology in terms
of the veri cation tools provided to users. We also discuss
challenges and new research directions that can help bridge
these gaps.
