Abstract
Cloud database services, such as Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) and Microsoft SQL Azure, are attractive for companies to outsource their databases. In cloud database services, a shared platform (e.g., database server hardware and software) is provided to host multiple outsourced databases. By using cloud database services, a client can deploy databases quickly without making the large upfront investment on proprietary hardware and software. Hence, the cloud database services can help companies reduce the total cost of ownership on their database management. Moreover, due to the scalability and elasticity of cloud database services, an enterprise can dynamically increase or decrease the cloud resources allocated to its databases according to its business requirements.
