EMSCLOUD – an evaluative model of cloud services cloud service management

Cloud computing is considered a paradigm both technology and business. Its widespread adoption is an increasingly effective trend. However, the lack of quality metrics and audit of services offered in the cloud slows its use, and it stimulates the increase in focused discussions with the adaptation of existing standards in management services for cloud services offered. This article describes the EMSCloud, that is an Evaluative Model of Cloud Services following interoperability standards, risk management and audit of cloud IT services. Aims to present that is possible to assess the life cycle of services offered in the cloud in the technical dimensions of usability, good practices and economic viability.
