Abstract

Workflow as a service is a recent trend in cloud computing. The opportunity to execute a workflow in a cloud is very attractive for business. There is, however, a lack of concepts for an integration of clouds and workflow management systems. Todays solutions are often not very effective in terms of resource usage. Further, they are not flexible enough to exchange the workflow management system, the cloud or multi-cloud environment. In this work, we evaluate WFCF our connector based integration framework for workflow management tools and clouds. WFCF uses intelligent methods to manage cloud resources with respect to monitoring information from both, the workflow and the cloud system. We introduce the architecture of WFCF and test the prototypical implementation. The evaluation is based on workflows from the music mastering domain.
