Abstract

The present embodiment may include a computing system that may extract a plurality of metadata from a service contract (human readable document) that was signed between the cloud infrastructure provider and a service owner before the service is deployed on the service delivery system of the cloud infrastructure provider. The present embodiment may compile the plurality of metadata into a control component that is an executable program that may be compiled with the service and adopted for auditing and enforcing the service contract of the service. The present embodiment may cause the service owner to compile the service with the control component, where the control component enabling auditing and enforcing the service contract signed for the service and monitors the service at runtime for compliance with the service contract.
