Abstract

Cloud technologies are important in the growing need for advanced information systems, enabling location-independent delivery of products or services. However, it is essential to consider their environmental sustainability amidst their expanding capabilities. In this work, we propose using the ARAS-COMET approach, a hybrid method for assessing the considered alternatives. Furthermore, to verify the robustness of the results, a simple sensitivity analysis is applied to examine the impact of different weight distributions on the ranking. The presented approach showed that it has the right to be used in a real-world scenario to make decisions regarding the sustainability of cloud solutions.

Towards Sustainable Cloud Services: MCDA Approach

Cloud technologies are important in the growing need for advanced information systems, enabling location-independent delivery of products or services.

In this work, we propose using the ARAS-COMET approach, a hybrid method for assessing the considered alternatives.
