ABSTRACT
Fusion of virtualization technologies with availability of high bandwidth internet at the end user level has given birth to cloud computing. It promises colossal on-demand processing and storage capacity along with saleable service delivery model. Software solution providers are applying cloud computing to reduce service provisioning cost, by providing their business functionality as a service. However, it requires modification in context of how existing services are provisioned. Existing session management policies require dedicated computing resources to process sessions; this deviate from concept of "Pay-As-You-Use". To conform to cloud computing architecture there is need to decouple session management with provisioned services. Derived by the need of on-demand service provisioning in this paper we present a decentralized session management framework inspired by P2P routing protocol. We call the proposed algorithm Chord based Session Management Framework for Software as a Service Cloud (CSMC). By applying CSMC there will be no need of separately deployed computing resources for managing sessions, in fact CSMC uses existing least utilized resources within Cloud Area Network (CAN). CSMC has been tested on three different cloud configurations, our results reveal that CSMC can effectively deployed in cloud to achieve seamless service scalability.
