Abstract
After having broadly introduced and motivated cloud service benchmarking in the previous chapter, we now provide a more thorough discussion of related terms and concepts. We start with discussing what cloud services, cloud service qualities, and cloud service benchmarking are, before differentiating benchmarking from the related practice of monitoring. Finally, we provide an overview of the essential components of cloud service benchmarking tools.
