Abstract

Nowadays, different eScience actors are assuming the Federated Cloud as a model for the aggregation of distributed cloud resources. In this complex environment, service delivery and resource usage is an open problem, where multiple users and communities are committed to particular policies while using federated resources. In the other hand, DIRAC has become a multi-community middleware fully interoperable in Distributed Computing Infrastructures (DCI), including several cloud managers. Furthermore, DIRAC is able to federate Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) to provide Software as a Service (SaaS) in a transparent manner to the final user. This paper defines a credit model for the resource usage providing automatic management in federated cloud. It is presented a prototype of this model, which is implemented with DIRAC, describing a test for the model assessment and drawing up conclusions for a production level federated cloud governance.
