The proliferation of Cloud Computing has opened new and attractive offerings for consumers. Cloud Service Providers promote and market packages of cloud computing services that cater to diverse opportunities and user applications. While this has obvious advantages, there are certain factors that are a cause for concern. Monitoring the underlying infrastructure that supports the entire fabric of cloud computing is an aspect that requires a great deal of attention. The aspect of monitoring takes on a great deal of significance when performance and robustness of cloud service on offer is taken into consideration. Although research has been conducted into various cloud computing monitoring techniques, there is scope and room yet for an integrated cloud monitoring solution that can fulfill the requirements of cloud administrators to ensure optimal performance of the underlying infrastructure of a cloud computing network. In this paper, we propose a unified monitoring model that is essentially a composite framework involving hardware and network layers. Studies conducted during our experiments suggest that our unified cloud monitoring approach can significantly aid in reducing overall carbon emissions while helping meeting compliance and audit norms by ensuring that the underlying cloud infrastructure is monitored closely.
