In a cloud environment, third party controlled asset sharing cloud databases is the motivation for search of trust. Lack of trust appears to be a probable major cause for fear when outsourcing databases. Research literature reviews indicate that the architecture of cloud databases has a potential to mitigate user distrust. In this paper, we focus on measuring trust in cloud database services based on user selected relative or direct factors. Our study proposes a formal trust mechanism in cloud databases where the user can select his most trusted Cloud Service Provider.
