Abstract :
Cloud computing provides computational services such as servers, memory, storage space, databases, networks, software, analytics, and information as virtualized resources through the internet to offer faster innovation, flexible resources, and cost savings at scale. Although cloud computing service providers are innovatively expanding their services, trust is one of the major obstacles to the progress of this matter. Trust is the biggest issue in cloud computing since trust is an effective guarantor during interactions between the users and the providers. Trust is one of the most fundamental methods for increasing confidence in resources provided in the cloud environment and is important in cloud business environments. With the increasing number of cloud services providers in the cloud computing environment and the number of users, the selection of provider has become a major challenge. The Coa algorithm has a higher convergence speed, at least by 5.9%, compared to the studied algorithms. In this research, an optimization approach based on a metaheuristic process using the COA algorithm combined with the K-means clustering algorithm is proposed to solve the optimization problem of selecting the best provider in the trust management third-party component layer based on parameters. In this method, while reducing trust evaluation time, the accuracy of user access to the most trusted provider based on user priorities has increased compared to previous methods. This can increase user confidence and improve the quality of service providers.
