CLOUD SERVICES PROVIDERS EVALUATION MODEL FOR DESIGNING HIGH PERFORMANCE, REAL-TIME IOT BIG DATA SOLUTIONS
Abstract
Cloud technology is the backbone of the delivery pipeline of just about every digital service today, from social media and streaming entertainment to connected cars and autonomous internet of things (IoT) infrastructure. Studies show the expectations are more than 15 billion IoT devices to be connected to Cloud services by 2029. Upcoming or new ultra-fast networks such as 5G and Wi-Fi 6E mean that more IoT data will be streamed to and from applications hosted in the cloud. Cloud services and infrastructure essentially help any other technology to be much lighter, faster, and more accessible, and this fact will be an important key driver in the migration of more services to the cloud. The use-cases and scenarios become increasingly complex. This is challenging for decision-makers such as chief information officers, solution architects, scientists, and thers as they are overwhelmed by various choices available by the increasingly growing number of cloud providers. The main requirements that must be met in a pure cloud application are operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency and cost optimization. These requirements are met by several cloud providers and their evaluation is important. In this article, an evaluation model is proposed that helps to identify the most appropriate Cloud Services Provider (CSP) during the design process of high performance, real-time IoT Big Data solutions. Keywords: Cloud Services Providers (CSP), Evaluation model, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Azure, Google cloud platform (GCP), Green Computing
