Abstract

Cloud services registry is a cloud services datadase which contains thousands of records of cloud consumers’ reviews and cloud services, such as Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The data set is harvested from a web portal called www.serchen.com. Each record holds detail information about the service such as service name, service description, categories, key features, service provider link and review list. Each review contains reviewer name, review date and review content. This work is an extension of our previous work Blue Pages data set [6]. The data set is valuable for future research in cloud service identification, discovery, comparison and selection.
