| Abstract | The emergence of large-scale federated Cloud computing environments and of dynamic resource pricing schemes presents interesting saving opportunities for service providers, that could dynamically change the placement of IT service components in order to reduce their bills. However, that calls for smart management solutions able to respond to pricing changes by dynamically reconfiguring IT service component placement in federated Cloud environments so to enforce highlevel business objectives defined by the service providers. This paper proposes a novel adaptive and business-driven IT service component reconfiguration solution based on what-if scenario analysis and on genetic-algorithm optimization. Our solution is able to model complex Cloud computing IT services and to evaluate their performance in a wide range of alternative configurations, by also detecting the optimal placement for their components. The paper presents the experimental evaluation of our framework in a realistic scenario that consists of a 2-tier service architecture with real-world pricing schemes. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of our solution and the suitability of business-driven IT management techniques for the optimal placement of service components in federated Clouds. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
