With the generalization of the Cloud, software providers can distribute their software as a service without investing in large infrastructure. However, without an effective resource allocation method, their operation cost can grow quickly, hindering the profitability of the service. This is the case for BPM as a Service providers that want to handl...

Multi-tenancy enables cost-effective SaaS through resource consolidation. Multiple customers, or tenants, are served by a single application instance, and isolation is enforced at the application level. Service load for different tenants can vary over time, requiring applications to scale in and out. A large class of SaaS providers operates legacy...

Multitenancy is an important feature for all Everything as a Service providers like Business Process Management as a Service. It allows to reduce the cost of the infrastructure since multiple tenants share the same service instances. However, tenants have dynamic workloads. The resource they share may not be sufficient at some point in time. It may...

Machine‐as‐a‐Service (MaaS) is an emerging service model for industrial appliances. With MaaS, machines are rented instead of being acquired, and their lifecycle is handled by an ecosystem of specialized actors, such as different independent maintenance companies certified for interventions on specific hardware. As the number of actors, clients, an...

La disponibilité de plateformes middleware dans le cloud, avec un passage à l'échelle transparent est un vrai progrès pour les développeurs et les intégrateurs logiciels. Ils peuvent développer et déployer leurs applications sans s'inquiéter des détails opérationnels. Cependant, le coût d'exploitation d'une infrastructure dans le cloud peut devenir...

The cloud computing introduced security risks which make companies reluctant to adopt it. Some means exist for reducing these risks while deploying a business process (BP) in the cloud. Among them, a technique largely used is to split the BP model in a choreography of BP fragments so that a cloud has only a partial view of the model. Unfortunately,...

As for all kind of software, customers expect to find business process execution provided as a service (BPMaaS). They expect it to be provided at the best cost with guaranteed SLA. From the BPMaaS provider point of view it can be done thanks to the provision of an elastic cloud infrastructure. Providers still have to provide the service at the lowe...

In this paper, we describe a framework that allows to automate and repeat business process execution on different cloud configurations. We present how and why the different components of the experimentation pipeline-like Ansible, Docker and Jenkins have been set up, and the kind of results we obtained on a large set of configurations from the AWS p...
