A Cost-Effective Intelligent Configuration Model in Cloud Computing

Cloud computing environments provide a resource pool for customers for their processing, storage and networking needs. It is necessary for customers to choose desirable configuration from vast resources available in the cloud. This paper proposes a heuristic model to choose a cloud configuration for efficient use. Trend analysis in data mining is used to predict the future trend and assist provisioning. The model is experimented with Intel power 32 core machine and in Azure cloud. Both environments demonstrated that the proposed model provided effective solutions.
