ESOCC 2025

Registration page is now online here!

Welcome to the 11th European Conference On Service-Oriented And Cloud Computing!

The European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing (ESOCC) is the premier conference on advances in the state of the art and practice of Service-Oriented Computing and Cloud Computing in Europe. The main objectives of this conference are to facilitate the exchange between researchers and practitioners in the areas of Service-oriented Computing and Cloud Computing and to foster future collaborations in Europe and beyond. ESOCC 2025 will include invited talks and presentations of selected research papers with the participation of top researchers from academia and industry.

ESOCC cares about fundamental ethical values related to diversity, as gender, ethnicity, disability, religion, and similar personal traits. Diversity will be sought at different levels, remarkably including conference committees’ composition.

ESOCC conference organizers will set as highest priority to provide a welcoming, respectful and positive atmosphere to all attendees. Aggressive or offensive language will not be allowed in talks, questions or answers. Aggressive or offensive behaviour, including any type of harassing, will not be allowed in the event, being a justified reason for expulsion without any compensation. For more details on on the Code of Conduct see here.

All ESOCC conference committees as well as authors are obliged to follow and apply the ethical responsibilities of authors as available at Springer.

Proceedings

Accepted papers from all tracks will be published in the main conference proceedings by Springer in the LNCS series. For publication to happen, at least one author of each accepted paper is expected to register and present the work at the conference.

Special Issue

ESOCC 2025 will feature a Special Issue (SI) in Springer Cluster Computing (https://link.springer.com/journal/10586). The best papers accepted at the conference will be invited to submit an extended version of their work to the SI.

Call for Papers

Nowadays, Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing are the mainstream approaches to building large-scale distributed systems and delivering software services to end users. Cloud-native software is pervading the delivery of enterprise applications, which are comprised of microservices. Microservices can be independently developed and deployed by exploiting multiple heterogeneous technologies. The resulting systems might be polyglot service compositions that can then be shipped in serverful or serverless platforms (e.g., using virtualization technologies). These characteristics make Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing the natural answers to the industry’s need for flexibly scalable and maintainable enterprise applications that can be delivered through state-of-the-art methodologies like DevOps. To further support this, researchers and practitioners need to create methods, tools, and techniques to support cost-effective and secure development as well as the use of dependable devices, platforms, services, and Service-Oriented applications in the Cloud, now also considering the Cloud-IoT computing continuum to exploit widespread adoption of smart connected things and the increasing growth of their computing capabilities.

The European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing (ESOCC) is the premier conference on advances in the state-of-the-art and practice of Service-Oriented Computing and Cloud Computing in Europe. ESOCC aims to facilitate the exchange between researchers and practitioners in the areas of Service-Oriented Computing and Cloud Computing, as well as to explore the new trends in those areas and foster future collaborations in Europe and beyond.
