Cloud computing enables the use of computing resources through the web, which is delivered as software, platform and infrastructure services. With increasing demand and adoption of cloud services, cloud service user faces many issues on selecting a particular service. In this paper, we provide a system, OSSR-P, which search and rank the platform as a service type services according to user requirements. OSSR-P system is based on PaaS service ontology which is developed and populated by parsing the service description document and WSDL document of PaaS services. The user requirements are parsed and generated as SPARQL queries which then retrieve the service list from the ontology repository. The retrieved services are ranked according to the requirements matching. The performance evaluation of OSSR-P shows that it provides and maintains consistent results irrespective of the number of requirements given by the user.
