A broker based approach for cloud provider selection

Rapid growth of internet technology made many IaaS providers arise across the globe to meet the needs of small IT companies. Number of IT companies started using resources of IaaS provider due to elastic and pay as you go nature. Increasing number of cloud providers results in difficulty for requester to select suitable cloud provider based on requirements. In this paper we present a broker based architecture for selecting suitable cloud provider from multiple providers. The broker measure the quality of each cloud provider and prioritize them based on the needs of the requester. The experiment is conducted using cloudsim simulator shows that proposed architecture selects suitable cloud provider.
