Measuring the Scalability of Cloud-based Software Services

Al-Said Ahmad, A; Andras, PE

Abstract

Measuring and testing the performance of cloud-based software services is critically important in the context of rapid growth of cloud computing. Scalability, elasticity and efficiency are interrelated aspects of performance of cloud-based software services. Here we present a work that is focused on measuring the scalability of cloud-based software services in technical terms. We introduce technical scalability metrics inspired by earlier technical metrics of elasticity.
