SURVEY ON RELIABLE SLA-BASED MONITORING FOR BILLING SCHEME IN CLOUD COMPUTING

Neha Ramesh Dodke, Sweta Kale

Abstract: The facility to record and keep report of the usage of cloud resources in reliable and certifiable manner is a pioneer to both cloud service provider and to users too. Because usage information is potentially susceptible and must be verifiably correct. This is critical job because in an attempt to provide mutually integrated approach to the system, we come to know that computational overhead increase due to use of traditional asymmetric key operations which lead the system bottleneck. The success of any billing system depends upon factors like integrity, non repudiation. The traditional billing systems are restricted in the security capabilities. To overcome this drawback, paper introduces the billing system called THEMIS. This new billing system introduces some new attributes which provides security facilities to the billing transactions. This system brings new concept called Cloud Notary Authority (CNA) which administer the billing transactions and make it good enough to accept by users and cloud service provider. The Cloud Notary Authority generates the binding information which helps system to solve the future conflicts between users and cloud service provider. SLA (service level agreement) monitoring approach is introduced to provide forgery resistance which doesn’t allow to modify the information even by supervisor of the cloud service provider. The service level agreement monitoring approach is improved with TPM (Trusted Platform Module) which sort the information in very secure manner.

Keywords: Cloud Notary Authority, Cloud server provider, verification, transaction processing, resource allotment.
