Recently, as the clouding computing begins to receive a great attention from people all over the world, it became the most popular buzz word in recent IT magazines or journal and heard it in many different services or different fields. However, a notion of the cloud service is defined vaguely compared to increasing attentions from others. Generally the cloud service could be understood as a specific service model base on the clouding computing, but the cloud, the cloud computing, the cloud computing service and cloud service, these four all terms are often used without any distinction of its notions and characteristics so that it's difficult to define the exact nature of the cloud service. To explore and analyze the cloud service systematically, an accurate conception and scope have to be preceded. Therefore this study is to firstly clarify its definition by Delpi method using expert group and then tries to provide the foundation needed to enable relative research such as establishing business model or value chain and policies for its activation to set off. For the Delpi, 16 experts participated in several surveys from different fields such industry, academy and research sector. As a result of the research, Characteristics of the Cloud Service are followings : Pay per use, Scalability, Internet centric Virtualization. And the scope as defined including Grid Computing, Utility Computing, Server Based Computing, Network Computing.

사물인터넷(IoT: Internet of Things)과 클라우드(Cloud) 컴퓨팅의 융합에 기반한 소위 IoT-Cloud 서비스들이 ICT 기반의 창의적이고 다양한 미래지향적인 응용 서비스를 구현하는 핵심 모델로 부상하고 있다. IoT 부분의 기기에서 부족한 컴퓨팅 능력을 공유형 클라우드로 보완하는 IoT-Cloud 서비스의 실증은 컨테이너(container)를 활용한 마이크로서비스(microservice) 기반 구현이 효율적이다. 마이크로서비스로 구현된 응용 서비스의 품질은 서비스 기능(function)들을 서로 연결(inter-connect)하는 서비스기능체이닝(SFC: service function chaining) 과정에서 발생하는 특정 기능 또는 이들의 연결에 따른 병목(bottleneck) 등에 영향 받는다. 전체 서비스의 정상작동을 보장하기 위해 서비스 환경 변동을 감안한 다양한 테스트 과정이 필요하며, 이를 통한 지속적인 개선 노력이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 Node.js 기반의 IoT-Cloud 서비스를 대상으로 DevOps(개발운영병행체제) 기반 지속적인 통합 도구와 응용 성능 모니터링(application performance monitoring) 기법을 활용하여 지속적인 통합을 실험적으로 실증하고 그 효과를 논하고자 한다.

클라우드 서비스가 확대되고 있지만, 많은 이용자들은 클라우드 서비스의 도입에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 이는 이용자 입장에서 어떤 클라우드 서비스를 신뢰할 수 있는지에 대한 정보가 없기 때문이다. 클라우드 서비스수준협약(클라우드 SLA)은 클라우드 서비스를 제공하는 공급자와 이용자간에 서비스의 품질과 성능 등을 포함한 정성적인 지표와 정량적 지표를 이용하여 협의하는 것이다. 이 연구에서는 클라우드 서비스 사업자의 서비스 수준을 향상하고 이용자를 보호하기 위해 국내 클라우드 산업에 적용할 수 있는 클라우드 SLA를 위한 프레임워크 제안하고 이를 이용하여 국내 클라우드 산업에 적용할 수 있는 클라우드 SLA의 세부 구성항목을 도출하고자 한다. 이를 통해 정부의 "클라우드컴퓨팅 발전 및 이용자 보호에 관한 법률" 체계하의 클라우드 서비스 제공자와 이용자간의 신뢰도 향상을 위한 정책적 활용은 물론 궁극적으로 국내 클라우드 서비스의 품질 성능 수준 향상 및 이용자 신뢰기반 조성을 통해 클라우드 서비스의 활성화를 기대한다.

Cloud services have become the core infrastructure of the digital economy as a basis for collecting, storing, and processing large amounts of data to trigger artificial intelligence-based services and industrial innovation. Recently, cloud services have been spotlighted as a means of responding to corporate crises and changes in the work environment in a national disaster caused by COVID-19. While the cloud is attracting attention, the speed of adoption and diffusion of cloud services is not being actively carried out due to the lack of trust among users and uncertainty about security, performance, and cost. This study compares and analyzes the "Cloud Service Quality and Performance Management System" and the "Cloud Service Certification System" and suggests complementary points and improvement measures for the cloud service quality and performance management system.

Cloud-based technology is used in different organizations around the world for various purposes. Using this technology, the service providers provide the service mainly SaaS, PaaS and while the cloud service consumer consumes the services by paying for the service they used or accessed by the principle of "pay per use". The customer of the services can get any services being at different places or locations using different machines or electronic devices. Under the conditions of being well organized and having all necessary infrastructures, the services can be accessed suitably. The identified problem in this study is that cloud providers control and monitor the system or tools by ignoring the calculation and consideration of various faults made from the cloud provider side during service delivery. There are currently problems with ignoring the consumer or client during the monitoring and mentoring system for cloud services consumed at the customer or client level by SLA provisions. The new framework was developed to address the above-mentioned problems. The framework was developed as a unified modeling language. Eight basic components are used to develop the framework. For this research, the researcher developed a prototype by using a selected cloud tool to simulate and java programming language to write a code as well as MySQL to store data during SLA. The researcher used different criteria to validate the developed framework i.e. to validate SLA that is concerned with a cloud service provider, validate what happened when the request from the client-side is less than what is specified in SLA and above what is specified in SLA as well as implementing the monitoring mechanism using the developed Monitoring component. The researcher observed that with the 1st and 3rd criteria the service level agreement was violated and this indicated that if the Service level agreement is monitored or managed only by cloud service prover, there is a violation of LSA. Therefore, the researcher recommended that the service level agreement be managed by both cloud service providers and service consumers in the cloud computing environment.

Application software is delivered to customers as a form of service at cloud environment. A cloud service provider is a marketplace between supply side (application providers) and demand side (customers). Cloud service providers have to validate applications to be included in their service portfolio. Not only performance, security, networking, compliances should be checked but also business contract, authentication should be provided. Organization customers are more sensitive to these validation criteria and process. We study the Internet2 NET+, which is a successful cloud marketplace of applications for research and education organizations. This case study shows us three things : (i) a cloud marketplace's application management process : selection, validation, transition to service, customization of applications (ii) what a cloud marketplace has for its infrastructure like authentication, security, access control etc. (iii) what a cloud marketplace has as its governance structure. This case study will provide informative analysis of Internet2 NET, a profit-making vertical and buyer's marketplace (education industry). And we will get some strategic implications for planning and implementing cloud marketplaces.

Recently, Most of the companies and government offices are under consideration about the adoption of cloud office service to actualize the smart work policies. Comparing with traditional office software, a cloud office service have the advantage of the method of payment and coming over the physical limitations. Many cloud office service users tend to adopt an official evaluated the service without doubt. However after deciding to adopt cloud office service, many users are faced with a variety of problems and difficulties practically. In this study, researchers carried out interview about those problems and difficulties after adopting a cloud office service. Consequently, there are several problems and difficulties such as compatibility, document security, document lost and maladjusted to the new graphic user interface between traditional office software and a cloud office service. A cloud office service have still several advantages not only a competitive price but also ubiquitous attributes. Thus, researchers need to study about what kinds of reason variables can solve those problems and difficulties. In existing research, DeLone & McLean have suggested information system success model. They use three independent variables which are system quality, information quality, service quality. Parameters are user satisfaction, intention to use and use. Lastly, dependent variables are net benefits. However in this study, we need to change the scope of measurement. In other words, we have to replace parameters with dependent variables. Simply, user satisfaction, intention to use and use is going to be dependent variables. There are several reasons why we need changing variables. First, we aim at giving a some suggestions to a cloud service providers which independent variables do not work to satisfy for the users. Second, we need to find out how to maximize cloud office service user's satisfaction and intention to use. Third, we should firstly know that relationship between independent variables and dependent variables. Finally, those research results give for the cloud office service provider to solve the cloud office service adopting problems and difficulties.

클라우드 서비스가 다양해지고 그 수가 급격히 증가하면서 클라우드 서비스 사용자에게 적합한 서비스를 제공하기가 어려워지고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 서비스 사용자와 제공자 사이에서 클라우드 서비스를 중개해주는 클라우드 서비스 브로커라는 개념이 제시되었다. 클라우드 서비스 브로커의 핵심적인 역할은 사용자의 요구사항에 적합한 서비스를 찾아주는 것이다. 그러나 현재 제시된 클라우드 서비스 브로커 대부분은 클라우드 서비스 전문가의 도움으로 사용자의 요구사항을 분석하는 수동적인 과정이 수행되고 있으며, 체계적으로 기능적, 비기능적 요구사항을 분석하는 과정이 미흡하다. 따라서 유사한 기능을 가지고 있는 클라우드 서비스 중 사용자의 요구사항의 중요도를 분석해서 가장 근접한 서비스의 선택을 지원해줄 수 있는 요구사항 분석 기법이 필요하다. 본 논문은 AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process)의 쌍대비교법을 응용하여 클라우드 서비스에 대한 사용자의 요구사항을 분석하고 각 서비스의 명세에 따른 점수를 계산하여 그 결과에 따라 클라우드 서비스를 선택하는 방법을 제시한다.
