description

Recent developments show that the standardization of cloud service descriptions and exchange leads the way for the rise of cloud federations. In these federations CSPs (cloud service providers) can use resources of other CSPs in the case of a lack of local resources or they can add remote services to their catalogue. Cloud federations again demand for cloud brokers which offer the resources and services of different CSPs transparently to the users. Research of cloud federations in the real world is very complex and expensive as distributed hard- and software scenarios are needed. Therefore we present FederatedCloudSim, a very flexible cloud simulation framework that can be used to simulate many federated cloud scenarios while respecting SLAs (service level agreements). In this paper we also present first simulation results and explain different simulation scenarios.
