Abstract

The new mode of inter-enterprise cooperation based on the paradigm of composite SaaS keeps promising an ease and a fast implementation of an on demand cooperation. These collaborations called often, on demand cooperation, arising to meet a business opportunity over the Internet. However, this new paradigm poses a certain number of challenges for us. The main one is the lack of a management framework for the cloud provider while covering the different layers IaaS-PaaS-SaaS. To tackle this challenge, we propose a management framework for a cloud provider to define the typical concepts related to the intern management of a composite SaaS provider. The proposed concepts are related to the stakeholders’ definition and the presentation of the different management features to consider while specifying the dependence between the cloud layers.
