Abstract

Cloud Computing (CC) is a new paradigm in which capabilities and resources related to Information Technology (IT) are provided as services. This provision could be done via the Internet and on-demand, and is accessible without requiring detailed knowledge of the underlying technology. In this paper we assess different service platforms using cloud computing telemetry services. Using an OpenStack telemetry service, namely Ceilometer, we design experiments to assess the performance of different Platform as a Service (PaaS) setups for basic purposes (e.g. database and Web server). The assessment could be use to decide between common used platforms, comparing requisites of storage, processing time and processor load. Given the costs of each metric at a CC platform and the performance of each PaaS setup, the IT manager could choose the most advantage one.
