Abstract

The ability to build complex business services is a crucial factor for implementing inter- and cross-organizational business processes. We propose a two-phase composition approach for services leveraging the benefits of cloud-environments. The materialization contains three steps: the definition of the composition workflow, the optimization of the composition workflow and the execution. The provisioning phase is followed by the service provisioning phase. It uses the extensibility and configuration operations of cloud-environments in the materialization to build complex business services. The two-phase composition process is a step towards a method for the model driven creation of complex cloud services.
