Abstract
The most important benefit of Cloud Computing is that organizations no longer need to expend capital up-front for hardware and software purchases. Indeed, all services are provided on a pay-per-use basis. The cloud services market is forecast to grow, and numerous providers offer database as a service (DBaaS). Nevertheless, as the number of DBaaS’ offerings increases, it becomes difficult to compare various offerings through checking of a documentation ads-oriented. In this paper, we propose and describe DBaaS-Expert – a framework which helps a user to choose the right DBaaS Cloud Provider among DBaaS’ offerings. The core components of DBaaS-Expert is first an ontology which captures cloud data management systems services concepts, and second a ranking core which scores each DBaaS offer in terms of criteria.
