Lifting the Haze off the Cloud: A Consumer-Centric Market for Database Computation in the Cloud
Summary: Introduces a consumer-centric market agent between users and cloud providers to price and contract cloud computations by cost and ETA, without changing provider offerings. Contributes contract-based pricing for complex workflows, with analysis of competitiveness and fairness incentives, robustness to estimation errors, and empirical profit gains.
