The integration between VO’s concept and cloud computing seems promising since VO participants use or provide their services in a cloud computing environment. Nevertheless, in this context of integration, the problem of trust between VO partners and cloud providers is highlighted. This is noteworthy since it’s necessary to select a reliable cloud provider for a VO business partner launch its service. Therefore, this work presents a confidence indicator model for cloud computing providers using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method. For the evaluation of this work, we used Quality of Service indicators of public cloud service providers. Results presented and discussed show the generated confidence indicator can be a good criterion to help the VO’s manager to select reliable Cloud Computing providers to host VO partners during the VO creation process. %G English %Z TC 5 %Z WG 5.5 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01614599/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01614599/file/430868_1_En_18_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01614599 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01614599 %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC5 %~ IFIP-WG %~ IFIP-WG5-5 %~ IFIP-PROVE %~ IFIP-AICT-480
