****** CALL FOR PAPERS - SPECIAL TRACK ******
CCC: Cross-Cloud Computing
along with
BUSTECH 2020, The Tenth International Conference on Business
Intelligence
and Technology
https://www.iaria.org/conferences2020/BUSTECH20.html
April 26, 2020 - April 30, 2020 - France
****** SCOPE ******
Multi-cloud computing promises to deliver various benefits, which
include
the avoidance of vendor lock-in, better proximity to customers and
improved
application performance. To this end, we currently see a trend
towards
developing and managing multi-cloud applications which is also
evident from
the advent of proprietary, multi-cloud platforms like Anthos from
Google.
However, such platforms are still not mature enough to cover the
whole
lifecycle of multi-cloud applications. Further, cross-cloud
computing
represents another promising opportunity enabling applications to
be
managed across different clouds which comes with the extra
benefits of
application performance optimisation, extended security level
establishment
and enhanced flexibility for application adaptation.
Unfortunately, with
the exceptions of some prototype research platforms, cross-cloud
applications are not facilitated at all during their development
and
provisioning. Last but not least, we also observe additional
obstacles,
which include the inability to deal with multiple levels of
abstraction as
well as the negligence of high-level business requirements during
the whole
application management. These obstacles need to be overcome to
realise the
vision of optimal cross-cloud applications which can change cloud
services
on demand to better sustain the service levels that have been
promised.
In this respect, there is currently a research gap towards
designing,
realising and managing cross-cloud applications. CCC special track
of
BUSTECH foresees the submission of both theoretical and technical
contributions which attempt to close this gap as well as promote
new ideas
to further boost the adoption of multi- & cross-cloud
computing and to even
evolve it in a more promising form.
