A Study on Simulation Software for Cloud Computing and its Applications
Subscribe/Renew Journal
Currently, cloud environments are making use of virtualization technologies. Instead of running programs on computers, everything is hosted in the cloud. The latter is a model enabling an on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (storage, applications, services, etc.). It offers services that can be classified in three categories: Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). These tools may include the different algorithms used by different service providers. This paper presents a survey of the existing simulation tools in cloud computing. It provides also a critical and comparative analysis of the studied tools. Finally, it stands out a major challenge to be addressed for further research.
