With the growing popularity of the service oriented computing paradigm, reliable cloud service delivery has assumed prime importance. This, in turn, demands appropriate techniques for reliability assessment of cloud services. In this paper, we present a model for reliability assessment of cloud services in a smart city infrastructure hosted as cloud service. Subsequently we provide the detailed methodology for obtaining cloud services reliability using Markov Model, Graph Theory and Queuing Theory. It has been assumed that critical infrastructures of a smart city including energy, water, gas, transportation, public health and safety, irrigation, communication networks are provided as services hosted on cloud infrastructures.
