Abstract

Internet-based services have become critical to several businesses in which many aspects of our lives depend on (e.g., online banking, collaborative work, videoconferencing). Business continuity is a remarkable property and it is a chief concern for many companies, since service disruption may cause huge revenue and market share losses. In recent years, cloud computing has turned into a remarkable alternative due to its resource on-demand and pay-as-you-go models. More specifically, additional resources, such as virtual machines (VMs), are only allocated when disaster takes place, and the automated virtual platform also performs a transparent recovery to minimize the service time to restore. This chapter presents availability models to evaluate cloud computing infrastructures.
