Towards a Clustering-Based Approach to Speed up IaaS Service Discovery Process

Cloud computing technology offers on-demand access to different cloud services over the Internet. The huge number of cloud providers that offer various services with different descriptions caused many problems, such as the complexity of multi-cloud service discovery and taking a lot of time to find candidates services that meets user's requirements. In this paper, we propose a new approach for composite infrastructure service discovery in multi-cloud environment. In our approach, we propose an indexing technique to facilitate virtual cloud resource discovery and their matching to user requirements.
