A SCA based model for resolving syntactic heterogeneity among clouds

Nowadays, companies are increasingly adopting the technology of cloud computing. This technology allows them to innovate and to improve their business. Plus, the presence of numerous cloud providers would be beneficial for providers and companies if some collaboration among clouds will be achieved. This collaboration lets companies to choose and to move their applications and data among clouds without being tied to any provider. We have embedded the Service Component Architecture in the cloud computing domain. The proposed model aims at facilitating the data sharing between multiple cloud service providers regardless their infrastructure, tools and platforms. Indeed, we have opted for SCA standard to promote the interoperability mechanism by moving and converting data formats exchanged among clouds. Our model allows many providers to interact among each other by overcoming the syntactic heterogeneity in order to satisfy companies´ needs.
