Supporting Cloud Computing Management through an Object Mapping Declarative Language
Graham Hughes, Dhiya Al‐Jumeily, Abir Jaafar Hussain · 2010
Due to the probable vast scale of Cloud Computing systems, management of the numerous physical and virtual components may become unwieldy. Many software packages that have historically been installed on desktops / workstations for years are slowly but surely being converted to Cloud Computing solutions. The problems that are emerging today are only set to worsen as Cloud Computing becomes ever more pervasive. This paper synopsises previous investigatory research concerning these emerging problems. It then continues, to describe the structure and operation of an object mapping declarative language and the object oriented system which employs it. Both are currently under development to support the management of these numerous Cloud Computing components. The ultimate aim is to develop a system that combines the rich capability of an imperative assembly with the concise simplicity of a declarative language.
