CloudWave is a FP7 EU project whose aim is delivering novel technologies and methods for improving both the development of Cloud services and the management of their operation and execution. Such goal is reached by providing mechanisms and policies for coordinating multiple adaptations both at the level of the Cloud infrastructure and at the level of the hosted applications. In this paper, we describe the CloudWave Telco application use case and we provide a proof of concept discussing how the QoS experienced by the application users can be improved thanks to the technologies provided by CloudWave. {\textcopyright} Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.

This paper deals with Cloud federation issues, where Clouds are both providers and clients of virtual resource at the same time. Specifically, we have designed a solution based on a XMPP communication platform, which allows to set up federated environments and to easily manage virtual shared resources. Heterogeneous and dynamic Clouds can interact in near-real time, making available their own resources according to specific agreement policies. We are thinking to implement the proposed solution using the Hadoop framework, a well-known Cloud Map-Reduce middleware designed to offer different types of services. Here, we analyze the basic and useful elements necessary to making up federated clouds. By mean of Cloud federation, two or more Hadoop clusters can be connected in order to increase service scalability, overcoming some technical limitations of the Hadoop framework itself.

The right setup of a testbed is important for enabling the rapid development and deployment of cloud services, in particular all the times the testbed hosts more concurrent interactions. This work shows how to configure an environment where more developers insist on it. In particular what tools are indispensable for managing compelling distributed cloud environments. We looked at mature Open Source solutions, performing their smoothed integration. The paper describes all parts necessary for accomplishing complex scenarios, even in a bounded perimeter as the VISION Cloud EU project offering. VISION Cloud represents the reference architecture dealing with Cloud Storage, and our work attempts to provide solutions applied on VISION, but suitable for any type of framework. {\textcopyright} 2012 IEEE.
