VALIDATING METERING OF A DISASTER RECOVERY SERVICE USED IN CLOUDS

Abstract:

An aspect of the present disclosure facilitates validating metering of a disaster recovery service used in clouds. In one embodiment, a system receives a request to validate metering of usage of a disaster recovery service (DRS) in a first cloud. The system collects from a metering service of the DRS, measured values representing the actual usage of the DRS in a second cloud and then compares the measured values with corresponding expected values representing expected usage of the DRS in the second cloud. The system sends a response to the request based on a result of the comparing. In one embodiment, the request is received from a tenant (customer/owner) owning the first cloud.
