Abstract:

The disclosed technology includes accessing a first network application programming interface exposed by a first cloud provider of the plurality of cloud providers to identify a first pricing profile, the first pricing profile associated with the first Cloud provider. Upon identifying the first pricing profile, accessing a second network application programming interface exposed by a second cloud provider of the plurality of cloud providers to identify a second pricing profile, the second pricing profile associated with the second Cloud provider. A load balancing decision is determined comparing the identified first pricing profile with the identified second pricing profile. Next, the determined load balancing decision is executed on a monitored computing-traffic.
