Service Cost Estimation in Cloud Environment Using a Third Party Web Server: A Comparative Analysis With and Without Using Cloud Computing

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

 This paper maps the idea of software maintenance cost estimation process onto cloud computing service cost. We have many models for effort estimation in maintenance. Here we implement any cost estimation model to calculate the service cost in cloud computing. As in cost model there are 14 major cost drivers, in cloud environment there are also cost drivers which hold major expenditure. Considering cloud environment cost drives, an effort estimating equation is developed which can be implemented for finding the service cost. Using that service cost a third party server gives back pre-deployment maintenance estimation to the cloud user on request. There is also an analysis of data sets from different organizations which shows the comparative cost involved in cloud services and in traditional services.
