Akanksha Gupta · 2013
Cloud computing is a style of computing in which dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources are provided as a service over the Internet. Software as a Service (SaaS) is one of the most important part of cloud computing, and it can be used for providing different types of business solution. In real world several organizations had successfully adapted the SaaS concept. In order to realize the benefits of SaaS, it has to be evaluated properly. The existing SaaS evaluation models are only focusing on quality attributes of software, similar to conventional software services. But the SaaS on the cloud needs to be considered related characteristics of clod. For this purpose the new evaluation model is proposed based on Data mining techniques of clustering. The proposed model would be helpful to the service providers and service users to evaluate SaaS on the Cloud.
