The Impact of Pricing Schemes on Cloud Computing and Distributed Systems

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This article investigates the economic implications of pricing models in cloud and distributed computing systems, emphasizing their influence on system performance and user cost efficiency. We analyze the efficacy of various pricing structures, including pay-as-you-go and resource-consumption-based models, and their impact on both operational efficiency and financial management. Our findings highlight significant challenges in optimizing cost-efficiency without compromising system effectiveness and call for the development of more sophisticated pricing strategies. By examining the limitations of current economic models and the evolution of dynamic and auction-based pricing mechanisms, the study offers insights into future research directions aimed at enhancing fairness and competitiveness in cloud computing environments.
