Performance analysis of intrusion detection systems in the cloud computing
Mostapha Derfouf, Mohsine Eleuldj · 2017
Cloud computing is a paradigm that provides access to compute infrastructure on demand by allowing a user to use a big number of virtual machines (VMs) to solve a given computational problem. Before implementing new applications running on the cloud, it is often useful to estimate the different performance/cost of possible implementations. Do it physically on cloud providers will be intensive and expensive, this is why we use simulators. In this paper we will compare the different scenarios of collaborative intrusion detection systems that we have proposed already in a previous paper [1] using a tool called CloudAnalyst that was developed to simulate large-scale Cloud applications with the purpose of studying the behavior of such applications under various deployment configurations. The simulation is made taking into consideration several parameters such as the data processing time, the response time, user hourly average, the request servicing time, the total data transfer and virtual machines costs, the obtained results are analyzed and compared.
