These lines should serve to name all those people who have directly or indirectly supported and encouraged me over the years, without whom this work would not be a reality today. However, I am aware that most of them will not be mentioned. Please serve these lines to express my gratitude and my consideration to them. I would like to make a special mention to my directors of Thesis, Doctors Javier Soriano Camino and David Lizcano Casas, whom I hold in high esteem and admiration. Without their experience, advice and guidance, this work would not have been possible. Your contribution throughout the process of making this work is of great value.Con todo ello, se puede concluir que es posible escalar de forma automáticas servicios cloud mediante el uso de sistemas de auto-escalado que permitan (i) cumplimiento y adherencia a las SLAs especificadas por los consumidores cloud, (ii) detección automática de los recursos computacionales que son el cuello de botella, y (iii) la monitorización de las métricas esenciales para la toma de decisiones de escalado en entornos multi-cloud.
