A Framework for SLO-driven Cloud Specification and Brokerage

The diversity of cloud offerings motivated the proposition of cloud modelling languages (CMLs) to abstract complexities related to selection of cloud services. However, current CMLs lack the support for modelling service level objectives (SLOs) that are required for the customer applications. Consequently, we propose an application- and provider-independent SLO modelling language (SLO-ML) to enable customers to specify the required SLOs. We also sketch the architecture to realise SLO-ML.
