Abstract: Abstract Cloud data centers continue to expand as new technologies emerge and IT resources multiply. This is due to the multiplication of the number of generated services in modern IT systems and the virtualization and externalization of these assets. Nowadays, software services in the cloud are regulated by licenses. This creates new challenges regarding resource management at the SaaS level and contributes to the already enormous energy consumption increase and cost explosion. Managing and scaling cloud resources when it comes to licensed software applications is a new trend. This is all the more difficult when compliance issues are in question. In this article, we propose OptiCom, a novel software-level resource optimization approach that ensures regulatory compliance and enables the minimization of costs, resource wastage, and energy consumption through migration and dynamic placement. The evaluation study showed promising outcomes. Experimentally, our approach achieved important results with 47.87% cost savings, 24.12% energy savings, and 60.08% more profit in terms of resource utilization.
