3.5 Taxonomies for Cloud Computing
There are some proposals in the literature related to cloud computing taxonomies. All presented taxonomies have focused mostly on the commercial aspect (e.g., business model), lacking on describing the domain according to important aspects for e-Science such as standards, privacy levels, and so on. Cloud computing providers adopt a specialized taxonomy to explain their approach, especially if they have to distinguish themselves from others. This section presents four taxonomies, already developed for the cloud computing domain.
Youseff [34] proposes a unified ontology for cloud computing. It presents a summary of cloud computing components, with a classification of these components, and their relationships. Even though this paper is a step forward, highlighting many technical challenges involved in building cloud components, it is not a real ontology, but a taxonomy that partially covers the cloud computing domain. In fact, this work classifies just the cloud computing components in five main layers. In addition, this ontology only takes the business model into account (classifying cloud computing as software as a service, hardware as a service, and so on). Many other aspects are needed to classify cloud computing environments, particularly for e-Science, such as pricing, access methods, and so on.
Leavitt [13], presents the whole cloud scenario with advantages and disadvantages, explaining the adoption of cloud by companies around the world and classifying cloud computing environments into four types that are equivalent to the business models presented in this paper. However, it proposes a type called “general services” that consider databases and storage provides as a service, differently from our taxonomy that created a new type named DaaS to designate this type of business model. This classification may be too generic since it groups in one class (general services) many important types for e-Science. Services for different purposes are classified as the same, and this may be not be desirable.
Laird [12] classifies cloud environments in a taxonomy that is composed by four main classes: Infrastructure, Platform, Service, and Applications. In each of these classes, it details some aspects and presents cloud environments that correspond to the classification. Many of the classes used in this work are present in our taxonomy. However, it is not focused on e-Science aspects and many important classes are not considered. Laird [12] is focused on commercial environments, and because of that, some classification is missing, such as HPC supporting. Since it is not a fundamental aspect for commercial applications that are executed in clouds, it was not considered.
The United States National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently provided definitions for cloud computing through an implicit taxonomy [18]. However, different from the taxonomy presented in this chapter, the NIST cloud computing taxonomy has focused on the business model aspect, lacking on describing the domain according to different aspects such as standards, privacy levels, and so on.

3.6 Conclusions and Final Remarks
In this chapter, we have introduced a taxonomy for cloud computing from an e-Science perspective. The authors believe that it will be useful for the scientific community in evaluating and comparing different cloud environments. By classifying environments using the proposed taxonomy, they may evaluate which environments meet their needs for executing scientific experiments in clouds. Different from the existing taxonomies, this taxonomy considers a broad view of cloud computing according to important aspects of scientific experiments and aims to explore the major properties of it.
This chapter highlights that despite the high interest about the topic, it is still a wide open field. New solutions for cloud computing are available, and many others are being announced, which makes the cloud computing field very fertile and hard to be understood and classified. It is fundamental that scientists are able to choose the best cloud environment for their experiments. The use of the taxonomy and its common vocabulary may facilitate scientists to find common characteristics of the existing environments and may help them to choose the most adequate one.
