Enhancement of Security and Performance of Cloud System by Integration of Multi-Tenancy
Keywords:
Cloud computing, multi-tenancy, METLAB, Interface ComplexityAbstract
Cloud computing is a well-liked model for offering flexible and scalable computing resources to both organizations and individuals. However, assuring the performance and security of cloud systems continues to be of significant concern. Multiple users or tenants can share the same cloud infrastructure thanks to multi-tenancy, a crucial notion in cloud computing. This study relates to the incorporation of multi-tenancy to improve the security and functionality of cloud computing systems, the thorough analysis of the literature already in existence on cloud computing, multi-tenancy, and the related security and performance issues. It examines the advantages and disadvantages of multi-tenancy and outlines the most important research gaps that require filling. The article analyzes several security methods and techniques that can be used in a multi-tenant cloud system to address security problems.
