Scope
Cloud computing presents new economic and flexible business and 
technological models. The explosive uptake of Cloud solutions has 
fuelled the growth of Cloud services. However, to support Cloud 
providers and users, it is critical that sourcing decisions are informed 
through some system of Cloud service analytics. The 1st Cloud Service 
Analytics Workshop (CSAW) will provide an interactive and focused 
platform for presenting and discussing new and emerging ideas on Cloud 
service analytics. This workshop focuses on linking some of the latest 
research in business and I.T to explore how we can examine the value of 
Cloud service environments. This workshop provides a platform to 
exchange state-of-the-art research and practice in Cloud service 
analytics and explore emerging or overarching trends within the field of 
Cloud computing.

Topics:
• Cloud Computing Analytics
• Service Key Performance Indicators
• Cloud Performance Modelling and Management
• IT Service Management and Cloud
