Abstract: A computer system that monitors attributes related to cloud computing services is disclosed. A request may be received via a portal within a common connection and database framework. The computer system may generate an internet-based interface that is configured to provide access to the attributes. The computer system may process selection criteria for an object related to the cloud computing services within the internet-based interface to be monitored within the common connection and database framework.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, method and program providing a multi-tenant software as a service (SaaS) application or cloud computing service that manages and monitors the use of other SaaS applications or cloud computing services via a common connection and database framework. An Internet-based interface is provided as a single portal for monitoring and managing the use of SaaS applications or cloud computing services. Objects and the state of these objects including all associated attributes related to the SaaS applications or cloud computing services are stored in databases associated with the Internet-based interface. The Internet-based interface also provides a social networking infrastructure and an application exchange infrastructure that allows sharing of information related to the SaaS applications or cloud computing services.
