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.
